Chapolin Opening BGM, also known as BGM Chapolin 1993 or CHAPOLIN_CHAMADA (IN SBT audio database) are placeholders names given a unknown song used in the brazillian-dub opening of the El Chapulin Colorado series, originally made by Roberto Bolanos in the 1970s. This opening was made in 1993, by the SBT network, but the song was appeared in a few years before, in 1987 and 1988 in other programs of the same TV network (although there are reports that the same song appeared on the station in the early 80s, but no concrete evidences has yet been found to support these informations).

History

1984: Premiere of Roberto Bolaños series on SBT

In 1984 Roberto Bolaños' series began to be shown in Brazil, the pioneering series Chaves (El Chavo del Ocho) and Chapolin (El Chapulin Colorado) had to be redubbed and re-sounded when they were acquired by the TV station.

In the process of re-sounding, several sound sources were taken to be used as background music (often acquired amateurishly or without identification) to be used by the station, it is likely that this music came from one of these obscure packages.

Many audio tracks from the series when they arrived in Brazil were replaced by film scores and music by composers from the United Kingdom.

In 1989 this mysterious soundtrack was seen being reproduced in a commercial for the series El Chavo, this being the first record of this song in Roberto Bolanos' series. The track in commercials was used only until 32 seconds, then it was interrupted. File:Unknown Chapolin theme song in El Chavo bumper 1989.mp4


The soundtrack was used as background music for the commercials for the series El Chavo until 1993, the year in which the famous (and best known) opening of Chapulin Colorado was shown for the first time.
