Nothing special but I’m curious. Anyone know who this music is by?

Shazam has given me 4 or 5 different results and they’ve all been techno/electronic. Strange, not even kinda close.

Aha, I came up with “Whistling Down The Road” and it appears to just be free music that youtube gives out to put behind videos which is why, maybe, I had hard time finding it on Shazam.

Weird. Yeah my searches also led me to techno. Anyway, thanks Joey!
