We’re big fans of Raymond Scott.  While he’s best known as a composer of quirky big band-era music that became the sound of cartoons, he went on to help pioneer electronic music. 

Thanks to musician, arranger, and RS fan Les Deutsch, you can now download free Raymond Scott ringtones formatted specifically for iPhone.

Details from Les: ”I could have converted the original recordings to ringtones, but I really enjoy the quirky synthesizer sounds that the Mac’s internal QuickTime app generates directly from Finale.”

Download them at the Raymond Scott blog. 

Note: When I downloaded the files, they had a .m4r.html extension. Changing this .m4r made the files recognizable as ringtones.
