It needn’t be anything too dominant. Radio Leeds’ 2004 IQ Beats package (also used by Kent and Stoke) incorporated the thunderclaps in their TOTH jingle which worked really well IMO.
Of course David Lowe's news theme was chosen to incorporate elements of radio news with the pips, so arguably they already do, that said Radio 2 only use them 3 times a day, so I don't disagree.
