As it turns out, many LG ringtones over the years were created by the Korean content company Neocyon. We don't know many specific names involved just yet, but this is an exciting breakthrough - getting closer to solving who composed all those VGM-y tones that get thousands of likes. :)

We finally have an answer to "Does Nokia's internal holy grail of HQ + unused ringtones still exist?". Unfortunately, Microsoft deleted them when transferring Nokia data to HMD Global upon the sale in 2016. I am truly disheartened by the devaluation of historical content.

From Santeri Saarinen, the Software Product Manager at HMD Global. This was in reply to a query from a researcher/archivist involved with ringtones for several years.

In 2009, YMO (as HASYMO) created the song "Good Morning, Good Night" for the NTT DoCoMo NEC N-04A commercial. The phone itself has 14 original ringtones by HASYMO. Sadly the ringtones have not been archived and shared online yet, but the song is available: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gzuw... (3/5)

🧵 Yellow Magic Orchestra & ringtones: a thread. YMO is a Japanese synthpop band (Haruomi Hosono, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Yukihiro Takahashi), known for their groundbreaking electronic music. Let's explore their connection to ringtones... (1/5)
