Mad Men Intro Music – RJD2’s A Beautiful Mine

There are few opening sequences to a TV show as good as Mad Men’s intro. The only intro any bit as good as it is Dexter’s but that theme music is for another post. While the animation for the Mad Men intro is amazing, it wouldn’t be the same if RJD2’s track A Beautiful Mine were removed as the backing track.

There are a few versions of a Beautiful Mine floating around the place. The most sought after one is the version used in Mad Men which is embed below:

There is a also a pretty ‘awkward’ sounding Hip Hop version featuring  Aceyalone on vocals:
