About this sound

The Dukes of Hazzard intro clip with the opening narration over the Good Ol' Boys theme, used for country chases, retro TV edits and Southern entrances.

This is the opening intro from The Dukes of Hazzard, the short burst that played before episodes set in fictional Hazzard County. It pairs a folksy spoken narration introducing Bo and Luke Duke with the twangy start of Waylon Jennings' Good Ol' Boys theme, all banjo, guitar and easygoing country swagger. The sound feels warm, mischievous and instantly nostalgic, like a car is about to slide around a dirt road corner. Even out of context it signals good-natured rebels, small-town trouble and a chase that is more fun than dangerous.

Pro tip

Drop it at the very start of a chase or road-trip edit and let the narration finish before cutting to your footage. Keep the country guitar under the first shot, then dip it quickly so dialogue stays clear and the retro joke lands.

How people use it
