ProTones - Ringtones made by award winning composers
A couple of BAFTA (British Academy of Film and Television Arts) nominated composers who became fed up with the poor quality of ring tones of film and tv sound tracks have decided to have a go themselves, reports Source Wire.
"ProTones is offering ringtones of popular film & tv soundtracks, each one individually crafted to work on a mobile phone.
Using a unique way of transforming a score into a ring tone friendly format, they spend two days on each one to ensure they are as close to the original as possible. They will also give customers a free tone if they are not completely satisfied with their first choice".
In their own words:
"Today's mobiles are capable of producing stunning polyphonic ringtones. But the ringtones that people are buying sound like they were thrown together by students in a matter of minutes.
So, we've decided to do something about it. We've set up ProTones - a new kind of ringtones company.
As the name suggests, our ringtones are different. They're created by professionals (us) and made with the same care and attention as any piece of music we've created before. "
