Indestructible! Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 (edited) Hi All, I just noticed on the Blue Note website that a number of "classic" Blue Note songs will be made available for download as ring tones. More info here: http://www.bluenote.com/news.asp?NewsID=388 “The Best of Blue Tones” program: Art Blakey- Dat Dere Art Blakey- Moanin' Clifford Brown- Daahoud Clifford Brown- Joy Spring Herbie Hancock- Cantaloup Island Herbie Hancock- Watermelon Man Blue Mitchell- Fungii Mama Thelonious Monk- Straight No Chaser Lou Donaldson- The Blues Walk Lou Donaldson- Aligator Boogaloo Hank Mobley- The Turnaround Kenny Burrell- Chitlins Con Carne Chet Baker- My Funny Valentine Gerry Mulligan- Bernie's Tune Lee Morgan- The Sidewinder Miles Davis- Move Ornette Coleman- Broad Way Blues Ronnie Laws- Always There Jimmy Smith- Back at the Chicken Shack Sonny Clark- Cool Struttin' Lonnie Smith- Son Of Ice Bag Bobby Hutcherson- Ummh Freddie Hubbard- Crisis Horace Silver- Song For My Father I'm going to check these out... the ringtones that come standard on my phone are all absolutely horrible (although the one called "This_Is_Techno" is pretty good, in a cheeeeeeezy sort of way). I can't wait to hear Hank Mobley tell me that someone is on the other line... Maybe it will be Lou Donaldson, trying to sell me a sammich! Cheers, Shane Edited September 1, 2006 by Indestructible!

DMP Posted September 2, 2006 Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 Downloaded one a couple weeks ago (Kenny Burrell), my first experience with all this. Pretty simple, although I had to wade through a lot of other material to find them. Who knew Diana Krall was so big in the ringtone universe?

RDK Posted September 2, 2006 Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 Am i missing something or does Blue Note not have a link to any site actually selling the tones? Any recommendations on where to purchase one? I just got a new cell that actually lets me do such things... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjobbe Posted September 2, 2006 Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 just a question: are those the RvG re-masters and are they Copy Controlled Cheers, Oliver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMP Posted September 4, 2006 Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 I think they're the "Applause" versions. Got mine through my service's (Cingular") website, so you might want to start with whatever company you're using. Simple to do - all you really needed to know was what type phone you have and the phone number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Bresnahan Posted September 4, 2006 Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 I create my own ringtones. All you need is an mp3 of the music you want as a ringtone. Use Audacity (available from www.download.com) to create a 30 second snippet from the .mp3 file using cut & paste. Export this 30 second snippet back to mp3 and copy it to your phone. I created some Jazz ones. Shorter's tenor solo on "Free For All" is one. The intro to Miles' "So What" is another. I usually leave it on the intro to the Who's "Baba O'Reilly" or the intro to The Cars' "Just What I Needed". Be warned that softer ringtones cause you to miss the call!
