x factor background music not american beauty

Can anyone tell me there was an amazing piece of piano music on Satudays show (7th Oct) which also had bits of music played backward in the same tune it wasone of the pieces being played when the contestants were being told if they had got through or not.

P.S. its not Carl Orf, Craig Armstrong, Thomas Newman or Mark Isham But I would say it sounded a little like Neman with a dash of Alexander Desplat score from the movie 'Birth' i.e. very subtle digital undertones but classical i essence .

I've been bugged myself mate ever since. I've checked hundreds of sites. Even called ITV for help but nobody knows. You're not alone my friend

I've got it !!
That other Mark Isham tune everyone keeps saying did sound familiar but i knew it wasn't 100 % correct. I phoned ITV again this morning & apparently they've had loads of calls concerning this piece of music. It IS from Crash and it's called Sense Of Touch. It's the song used right at the end of the movie. I'm completely satisfied now, no more sleepless nights racking my brain. I hope i have helped you out mate.

It's actually a hybrid of 3 tracks on the Crash soundtrack - the tracks are: no such thing as monsters, flames, a really good cloak and sense of touch that have been mixed together by the dubbing mixer into a montage. Indeed the composer is Mark Isham.

Thanks guys. I have also been looking and actually thought it was Craig Armstrong after all. I found some demo samples from Craig Armstrong's 'The Piano Works' and was pretty sure it was possibly one of two or three tracks on that album based on the demos. Now You guys say Isham I'm confused again. It would be great if you guys could listen to the 'Piano Works' demos on filmtracks .com and let me know what you think.

Thanks Bic

Sorry guys the site that the demos are on is cduniverse.com not film tracks as I said in my earlier post
