The local newspaper in my berg hosted a ringtone contest last month and wanted 30 sec. max compositions, so I put together a track using thumb piano loops. The thumb piano is passed thru a ring mod filter but otherwise everything is simple and minimal. I put the track together as an alert chime sequence, then an urgency sequence where the rhythm is varied, and then a drone or holding sequence. I felt it would function well as a ringtone but the 3 judges deemed it unworthy of comment. The winners and honorable mentions were all multilayer/multivoice, Winner was drum/bass/synth/sample techno electronica, the 2nd Place entry was a flute sonata. I listened to all the contest entries and still feel that my little ditty works successfully, with just the right amount of "perky and quirky." But what do I know? I suppose it might have helped if I had ever actually owned a cell phone. Or maybe not. :-) regards BobC http://www.cdbaby.com/rpcollier http://www.cdbaby.com/rpcollier2 http://tinyurl.com/cr25j http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sn--iF6a4Xo
