Digging through some old recordings of mine and found this. Heard this melody on BET After Dark a few years back and once again recently on current.com. I basically recorded this little loop to remember the melody although I think the rhythm of it is different on the original. If anybody knows the name of the original song contact me cause it's been driving me crazy for years.

Haha, nice comment. Dusty Sun was sort of a quick one, not sure if I could get in the mindset of the song again!
But ya never know. I'll see what I can do.
"BET After Dark"
Where did you see that song on Current? If memory serves me correctly, that song was used in a car commercial as well. I can't remember if it was Lincoln or Buick but it was a commercial filmed at night and had black actors drving the car/ truck.
My email is creolegq77@yahoo.com. I am new to this site and clicked on it because I have been on the hunt for this song as well. I went to BET's site and stumbled upon two people associted the show (producers maybe?):
marcy.polanco@bet.net, tricia.newell@bet.net
I emailed them and never got a response.
The BET After Dark message boards are no longer active.
If you can let me know where you found that loop on current, I will try to do some further research to find the source of that loop.
If you ever find this song, PLEASE let me know.
THANKS!
I heard the loop on current TV and yes, it was during a commercial, I think a car commercial but I'm not sure for what brand.
I played and recorded my own version of the loop on guitar just so I'd remember it. Maybe it will help jog the memory of the BET producers if they hear something that sounds similar to the song.
If you do figure it out, let me know!
maaaaan ive been lookin for that song for a while. will you please send me the link to where you found it please and thank u
nobody seems to have found it yet. although i found this amusing:

Thank You so much for bring your info out for everyone to see. I too have been trying to find that beautiful melody and finding your website is the closest I've been able to acquire it. If anyone ever finds the exact song, please bring it out to light so all of us can stop searching in the dark.
I think we all agree, 90% of the fun of BET after dark was the theme song. I remember being a youngster and the theme song would come on, and then they'd segue into Al B. Sure's "Night and Day" video. MAN I LOVE THAT SONG.
But seriously, Zirafa, I just had a great idea. Here is a foolproof way to find that song and the author of it:
Put your creation on an album and sell it. As soon as you get sued *poof* there's your answer!
o snap, BET took down that youtube link

I've actually prepared a short list of musical/artistic critiques of this song that I will list when Robot Killing People branches out into radio show, as well as continuations of the print zine. I love this song so much!
(SERIOUSLY!)
Has no one found out this song STILL!?!? I like all of you have been trying to find out this song. It was on the commercial for million dollar listings the other day!!!
It must be some song that has a really good licensing deal and a really lousy publicity deal...
An upcoming artist Names DARIEN produced this instrumental with Terry lewis I believed it is unavailable.
Interesting. Have any links related to Darien?
Plz I really need that song the theme to midnight love who is the person
the song has been played twice in separate episodes on the new show Love and Hip Hop on Vh1.
