Ringtone Fest

Really short pieces (5 - 20 seconds) that can loop seamlessly as ringtones, alarms, and other notification sounds used by phones.

I was thinking a "crackerjack" festival. Something our stateside and European friends may not understand. Is not unlike the parody fest. Anyway every week on the aforementioned kids tv show they would cover a top twenty hit and change the lyrics into something comedic.
So suggestion is we do that. Rule is it has to a parody of a current top twenty hit single.

It's a great idea, but I'd have to know - and listen - to the top 20 singles.

I'm not sure I'll be able to endure it without anger and breakages.

I'd prefer it to be stretched to 'serious songs' done in a comedy style. e.g. Karma Police done like George Formby.

Ha! The Wurzel stuff is great, but people really talk like that where I come from in West Sussex! I still do a little bit - especially when I go home.

I bet that Bohemian Wurzley goes down a storm. Very clever - and funny.


Speed Demon

You folks across the Pond know interesting musicians that I've never heard of here in the USA.
Where can I find samples?
