Does anyone know if the music in the new Coke ad (guy goes to the beach on his lawn mower) is the theme to Futurama slowed down?

Saw this tonight and both me and our lass remarked how similar it was to the Futurama theme.
Dunno what it is though.

I *think* the origional tune was done by Pierre Henry back in the 60`s. It was called `Psyche Rock` and by all accounts was well ahead of it`s time. I know fat boy slim did a mix (the malpso mix) of this tune a few years back, but Futurama brought it too the masses.

It`s still a kick-ass track today! I`ve got in mp3 somewhere.......
