A Trip to Trumpton
"A Trip To Trumpton" is a song by the English duo Urban Hype. It was released in 1992 as the lead single from their debut studio album, Conspiracy To Dance (1992).[1] Songwriting credits were shared by Freddie Phillips, the composer of the original music for Trumpton.[2] The track was engineered by the DJ Jack Smooth.[2] It featured samples from the 1960s children's television programme, Trumpton.
It followed a popular trend at the time of releasing tracks based on children's TV samples - other songs that did this included The Prodigy's "Charly", based on the Charley Says series of public information films from the 1970s, and The Smart E's "Sesame's Treet", which sampled the theme music from Sesame Street. This subgenre was dubbed Toytown Techno.[3]
