Went from Explosive by Bond, to the opening riff of Lazy Eye by Silversun Pickups. Couldn't hear that one until the song started, so now it's the opening riff to Today by Smashing Pumpkins.


I like 90s rock.

My ringtone for nearly 2 years has been a MIDI version of "Pacific 707" by 808 State: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6HMt-42LAQE

It's one of the best tracks that has a MIDI version that sounds like the original; listen about 23 seconds in to understand why it makes a good ringtone (I clipped the MIDI to that portion).

When and if I get a phone that can play MP3 ringtones, I'll probably make one from "Unholy Grail" by DJ Dara and A-Sides (from about 2:34 in): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WLKDsvA9mE
and one from "L Razor" by Sys X: http://www.digital-tunes.net/releases/l_razor
and two ringtones from "Finished Symphony" by Hybrid (from about 3:04 in and from about 4:16 in): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoV9d9y-DdQ
...I'd list more but basically I'll be having tons of fun with Audacity once I get a phone that uses MP3 ringtones.

[Edited on November 14, 2010 at 6:56 PM. Reason : lol I'd even make a ringtone from the chorus to "Circus Cosmos"

My stanard tone is the piano breakdown in Muse's "Ruled By Secrecy" as my ringtone. It meets my criteria: 1) no words; 2) loud from the beginning; 3) distinct; 4) I wouldn't be embarrassed if I forgot to silence my phone and someone called me


It's football season now, though, so I use a remixed version of the NFL on Fox theme.

I never got tired of "Pacific 707"

anyway I just found out that with the magic of BitPim, my phone actually can use MP3 ringtones

I'm going hog-wild on my vast music collection, but right now my ringtone is in fact a clip from "Finished Symphony"

The only song I've ever had as a ringtone was the Superman theme song. And everyone that heard it thought it was the Star Wars theme song
Now I just stick with the normal ring
