I recorded this ringtone from my then-typical motorola ultra classic cell phone in early 1997. This version has tiny fade-in/fade-out, about one second of leading silence and two seconds trailing silence for looping. I suggest amplifying it for use on a modern cell phone.

Chord progression (half note open guitar chords) for the widely recorded ragtime influenced song written in 1923 by Jimmy Cox, "Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out".

This sound was created using audacity. First of all i chose a frequency of 432 hz ( a number which includes the golden rule/proportion), then i created a gradual rise in the first 4 seconds, leading into a peak which descends so it can go up again, creating an effect of confusion. At the end, the sound raises gradually and rapidly to reach its peak once again. This sound recreates, for me, a fast- moving ufo (unidentified flying object) and includes the notion of conspiracy in our society- the changing of the frequency of the tone “la “ from 432 hz to 440 hz in 1953 by the nazis. La règle d’or- 432 hertz. Le ton « la » est une pointe centrale dans le réglage des instruments musicaux. Le ministre de la propagande en allemagne pendant l’époque des nazis a fait un décret général avec lequel il a changé la tonalité « la »de 432 hz en 440 hz. On utilise cette hauteur à partir de 1939 jusqu’à nos jours. Il y a eu des protestes de la part de professeur dussault de la conservatoire parisienne qui a fait une pétition signé par 23 000 artistes françaises mais sans aucun résultat. L’organisation internationale de standardisation(iso) a accepté en 1953 les changements et on utilise la valeur de 440 hz depuis. Des recherches montrent que ce changement a des effets incontournables sur le corps et le cerveau humain- les gens entrent dans un chaos. Ce changement a été caché du monde entier parce que c’est le point de la balance dans la nature. 432 hz est la vibration qui inclue aussi le règle d’or (ou la proportion de dieu). Quand on écoute de la musique en 440 hz la première chose qu’on remarque c’est une fatigue, aucun envie de faire n’importe quoi et beaucoup d’autres ( y inclus le mouvement de notre adn) une étude récent montre que l’utilisation de 440 hz crée des mouvais effets dans la nature et dans toutes les êtres vivantes. Cette article m’a inspirée à recréer un son avec une fréquence de 432 hz qui monte et baisse graduellement. C’est un son seul de type complexe(nodal). Il est de type v( continu varié), il est éclatant,clair et lisse. L’attaque du début est graduelle et violente. Le son varie en « hauteur » de plus fort au moins fort et l’inverse, recréant un effet d’un ovni qui passe à côté de vous.

Did this thrilling groovy piece of music in garageband for a thing called victors crypt. It starts off with a kind of wicked hard disco-beat. A four on the floor stomping groove. Then a bass line comes in and develops, getting more groovy, more tones. A midpart/breakdown before it goes up into a hard groovy four on the floor disco-beat again. The difference between the mild version and the spicy version is that there is more stuff coming in on the spicy version. Starts off the same but in the midpart there is more going on with guitars, piano, synths and stuff. And afterwards there's a bit of "jammy" section leading to the end. The mild version is more basic, no messing around kind of. Think it would work great to a game, youtube-channel, episode, movie or whatever you feel like. Could be perfect in a thrilling suspence part where someon's beeing chased or are in a hurry for instance. . . Feel free to use it as you like as long as you subscribe to and watch my channel :).
