I’ve just downloaded a few great “Da Vinci Code” mp3 ringtones for my Nokia 6120 classic. Those ringtones are very suitable for text alerts and other things and sound similar to the medieval music, but such kind of music usually associates with those tunes, which can be heard on the TV, when you watch movie about the war which took place a hundred or two hundred years ago with some aboriginals for their territories. Actually, as far as I understood, those “Da Vince Code” mp3 ringtones were made from the soundtrack of the film. I don’t want to say that the film was great (because, frankly speaking, it was extremely dull, but it’s just my subjective point of view). Maybe, I didn’t like the film, because before watching it I read a book by Dan Brown. By the way, his book is one of the most interesting things I’ve ever read. It even made me think about the hierarchy of the curacy of the church and more deeply understand how it works and what people, who have power and money, can do. I know, that almost all that things were just fiction, but it’s really interesting fiction

Bernard Herrmann (1911-1975) was a famous American composer, who still remains one of the best soundtrack writers (actually, he doesn’t write them now, of course, but his former works are sometimes used in new movies). When he was a child, his father was always taking him to the opera, that’s why he decided to start learning music (expecially violin). At the age of 13 he won $100 prize and later decided to went to New York University. Having only 20 years, he formed his own orchestra – The New Chamber Orchestra of New York. Nowadays Bernard Herrmann is mostly known for his collaboration with Alfred Hitchcock. One of his best works is a score for a film “Psycho” (for the shower episode, which at first should have had no music accompaniment). But namely this music became the most popular of Herrmann’s works. “Psycho” was a thriller and shower music used only the string section (screeching violin), whch was rather unusual for such movies. I recommend you to download Psycho (shower) mp3 ringtone – you would not regret about that!

In January 9, 2007 there was released a CD with soundtracks for the movie “Freedom Writers” (a film which got a final rating PG-13 – Parents Strongly Cautioned – by the Motion Picture Association of America because of the content, which is not appropriate for children under 13). The genre of Freedom Writers (soundtrack) is hip-hop. It is composed from 16 hip-hop songs of the 90’s. Among them were two songs written by W. Adams and performed by will.i.am, whos real name is William James Adams, Jr. He is Jamaican American musician, dancer, fashion designer, songwriter and founding member and frontman of Black Eyed Peas. He has his own labels among which is will.i.am music group. will.i.am was attending the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising in 2001 and later decided to create his own clothing line. “Bus Ride” is one of his two songs included into “Freedom Writers” CD and really deserves to be called one of the best. I’ve already got Bus Ride mp3 ringtone

Ennio Morricone is a very talented composer. He is mainly known for his film crores arrangement (more than 500 films). Ennio Morricone is a successful composer – he sold more than 25 million records including film crores, singles and other compilations. He composed his first movie soundtrack for the film Death of a Friend, which was produced in 1959 (long time ago). In 2008 he composed and arranged scores for Capone Rising, Leningrad, The Son of Dawn movies. I’m sure that there is no such person, who has not heard Ennio Morricone soundtrack at least once in his life (I believe, that everyone watched not less than one film of this 500). “A Few Dollars More” (produced in 1965) is a Italian western film directed by Sergio Leone (Clint Eastwood starred in that movie). So, now you can imagine that western music style

James Bond 007 – the hero, which was created by Ian Fleming. I read a few books about James Bond, but I can’t say that books (as it is almost always considered) are better than movies. I saw no difference between movie and book at all – the same expression of characters, the same pictures could have been imagined in your mind without the help of movies, having only read words from the book. Of course, it was interesting to watch movie, but one of the most valuable thing in that film was one soundtrack – that mysterious one, when you hear the sounds of the guitar and horn (it was played as a background music almost always before every episode, full of danger, when James Bond was sneaking somewhere with a gun in his hand). Cool James Bond 007 mp3 ringtone for the cell phone.

It is long time ago I watched Hercules cartoon – one of the best Disney cartoons I’ve ever watched. The most unforgettable things were the soundtracks to the cartoon. I tried to find them on CD, but all my attempts failed very soon. And now I’ve got the best soundtrack of the whole film on my cell phone I’m really happy, but I couldn’t keep myself in hand and decided to watch the video again It really raises my spirits. It has soothing, calming, restful, reassuring melody and the song is sang with a pleasant voice. This animated film was released in 1997 and at once become pupular not only among children, but also among grow-ups. And only recently I found out, that this soundtrack was included into the green disc of Disney’s Greatest Hits.

Recently on TV I saw the announcement of “Dirty Dancing” movie. I remember that a few years ago this movie was really popular (and it is a really old film – released in 1987). The same year it gained its peak pupularity and became number one. Now it remains well-known almost to everybody because of its soundtracks (the first CD with “Dirty Dancing” songs was released in 1990, and the final release was in 2008). Nowadays you can download mp3 ringtones for you cell. It was a hit movie and its soundtracks also belonged to favorites. One of them is Bruce Channel’s “Hey Baby” (I’ve found an mp3 ringtone of this song). Really old, really popular and may be even called immortal song from an immortal movie.

You may say that I’m old-fashioned and quaint, but you wouldn’t be right. I just like good music and good movies. “The Phantom of the Opera” is one of my favourite movies I’ve seen during the last three years. This is a film adaptation of the musical (which was based on the book of the same name by Gaston Leroux). It’s about an opera ghost living somewhere in the Opera House in Paris. That ghost turned out to be a real man who fell in love with one girl (both of them were the superb opera singers). I felt a real delight listening to them, I’ve even downloaded all the soundtracks of that movie. And today I’ve got the Phantom of the Opera mp3 ringtone for my cell phone. And I advice you this ringtone also – you would not be disappointed.
