Krampus Ringtone Giveaway

In honour of the astounding success of the first Krampus single out now on Bandcamp (an unbelievable 6 plays, as we go to press) it is my distinct pleasure to offer these free (FREE) ringtones (FREE ringtones!) for your mobile smart telephonic communications device of choice. Sorry Nokia 3310 owners. I haven’t transcribed it note by note into composer format yet.

There are two ringtones for your telephone answering pleasure. And I do mean pleasure.

The first is from the bit in the song where Jeff goes, ‘Oh oh oh / We gotta gotta go’. Christine from the Movies About Girls Show and Paracinema Magazine asked for that one.

Here is an MP3 version of the first Krampus Ringtone. If you have an Android type thing, this would probably be the one to go for.

Alternatively, if you use an iPhone, you should download this version of the first Krampus Ringtone. Simply unzip the file and drag it into iTunes for fun and dancing every time you receive a call.

Alternatively, if you like the bit where Jeff goes, ‘We like to party! / We like to rock the party hard!’ then the second ringtone will really tickle your fancy.

Here is the MP3/Android version of the Krampus Ringtone #2.

Here is the iPhone version of the Krampus Ringtone #2.

I hope it is your new favourite thing about being called on your mobile telephone by people.

New Band, New Bandcamp Page

As may be obvious from the fifteen billion Doctor Rock posts here, I play music. Today, I’d like to talk about new music I am making, with my pal Jeff Crazy from the Movies About Girls Show and and also from popular music groups Helltrack and The Browns and also from Medicine Hat, Canada.

Our band is called Krampus, and we like to make electronic music about parties. Jeff is the vocaliser and I am the tune manufacturer.

We were formed on the Xmas episode of the Movies About Girls Show (in Skype chat, so not actually on the show, technically) and then I sent Jeff eight songs in about a week. Jeff thought two of them were appropriate for the sound he is after. Now I have to stop writing songs in minor keys and stop being a gloomy guts.

Anyway, our first single is called This is how we do it on Friday nights. It’s about how we do it on Friday nights (or how Jeff says he does it, at least. Personally, I am very sleepy on Friday nights and like to lay in bed and watch movies).

You can find the song on our Bandkramp page HERE or you could just click the thing below. I hope you like it.
