It was a hangover from Daybreak.
The 11am news also had a different theme in that era too.

Such a weird era for ‘Nightline’ - very ‘slapped on’ branding, Sydney backdrop on a national bulletin..?

Do you have the video from this era? I remember they, and the Early News, used their own distinct themes rather than the main news theme.

So, the early news had a more subdued theme.
That was the old Daybreak theme. I wonder why they dropped that name for the early bulletin.
Is there an actual title for the track used as the theme?
Probably but it’s a stock track from the 90s so no idea what.
