If you&#8217;re Nokia, the answer to that question is: &#8220;Let some Italian guy design a dubstep ringtone, and then put it in a 100 million devices).&#8221; Like you could come up with a better answer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The winner of the contest, Italian DJ&nbsp;Valerio Alessandro Sizzi, is going to receive $10,000, and prominent placement in millions of future Nokia handsets. You&#8217;ll hear his work at some point in future <a title=\"Nokia, cheesiness featured in new Star Trek movie\" href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\/2009\/05\/10\/nokia-cheesiness-featured-in-new-star-trek-movie\/\">Star Trek<\/a> and <a title=\"Nokia X7 Product Placement Feels Like An Obituary\" href=\"http:\/\/www.friedyoda.com\/noisecast\/2011\/07\/nokia-x7-product-placement-in-transformers-3-feels-like-an-obituary\/\">Transformers<\/a> movies. Why don&#8217;t you go ahead and get ahead of the curve, though, and listen to it now! Right here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/www.friedyoda.com\/noisecast\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/Nokia_Tune_Dubstep_Edition.mp3\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s. Um. Yeah. It&#8217;s something! Right? That&#8217;s definitely something.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, if that&#8217;s the kind of thing you&#8217;d like people to hear whenever someone calls you on your new Nokia Windows Phone that you forgot to set up custom ringtones for, well you have cause to be excited. If, however, dubstep remixes of last decade&#8217;s ringtones are not your thing, may we suggest you play this sound bite over and over and over again. Build up an immunity. Trust me. It&#8217;ll work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/thenextweb.com\/mobile\/2011\/10\/10\/youre-going-to-love-or-hate-nokias-new-dubstep-ringtone\/\">The Next Web<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nokia&#8217;s new ringtone: dubstep madness or ear-splitting cringe?
