Elementfour—also referred to as Element Four or Element 4—was a British music production partnership formed by DJ Paul Oakenfold and composer/musician Andy Gray. Prior to July 2000, the duo collaborated in creating and producing the signature opening theme for Channel 4's reality television program Big Brother. This composition was subsequently issued as a single and continued to serve as the theme when Big Brother alongside Celebrity Big Brother moved to Channel 5, remaining in use from August 2011 until the series ended in November 2018. In 2022, a segment of this theme was repurposed to promote the 2023 season on ITV2.
