In this case, I may be seen to be biased towards one side of my potential readership (sorry, Spec-chums!). I have created, for your pleasure and enjoyment, sixty-four Commodore 64 ringtones! Yes, some of the finest Commodore compositions have been hacked into bite-sized chunks by me, for the sole purpose of brightening up your life when you get a text or phone call.
SMILE! as the Crazy Comets bassline signals an incoming call. GRIN! as your slacker mate phones to the sound of that famous tune from Lazy Jones. SMIRK! when your girlfriend phones and the soundtrack to Penetrator plays... LAUGH! at the sheer silliness of having Uridium's "Land Now!" siren blasts to announce a phone call, or even the sound of a Novaload's screech. Yes, I've thrown a couple of left-field efforts in there, too...
Yes, I recorded the sound from this very screen. |
Now for the tricky bit. I haven't got any webspace at the moment, so you can only obtain these either by e-mail or through Dropbox. Either way, just send me an e-mail to paul.e.morrison at gmail.com (you know what to do there) and let me know how you'd like to receive them, and I'll arrange it right away.
You can get these for either iPhone or Android (or any operating system that uses MP3s). So I reckon that most people are covered here. If you fancy spicing up your life, then get in touch!
One thing to note about these... there are very few full-length tunes here. That's mainly because it's pointless to do that... you'd never let your phone ring that long and you can listen to the tunes themselves in a number of different ways if you want to. I've tried to pick out pieces of tunes that work well as ringtones and stand up to being repeated if the phone rings that long. So if your favourite piece isn't here or it's been chopped up... that's why! If you want me to try anything else as a ringtone, I'm open to suggestions...
