The goal of this mashup remix assignment is to create a ringtone for a phone in another language. I used Garage Band for the editing process.

First, I went on to www.freesound.org and found the sounds of a phone ringing. Second I looked up on google translate how to say “Pick up your phone” and “Are you there” in Norwegian. I used Norwegian as my language because once when I was very young I went to Norway for a few weeks. Right when I saw this assignment I thought, this would be a fun language to try it out in and I never learned any words so I could just start now!

The third part was recording my self on Sound Cloud saying the phrases “Plukk opp telefonen” which means pick up your phone and “Er du det” which means are you there. I uploaded these sounds to my Itunes and from there into Garage Band.

Garage band offers free sounds and music segments to incorporate into your work. I chose “Carousel” which was under the topic of “World Music Sounds” I layered me speaking, carousel, and the ringing of phone all on top of each other.

This is a remix because it has three different layers of sound complied into one finished sound. All of the layers were legally obtained to create a ringtone in Norwegian.
