Has anyone figured out the name of the song from latest WP web ad?

[astroXP]

I just loved the song :excl:

They've been doing a great selection of music for their latest videos ! (e.g. Kids of 88)

Smarter mobile apps are built with Windows Phone 7.5 - YouTube

Nope, Shazam doesn't recognize it and I don't have Bing Music .. ugh

Bing music doesn't know what it is, either.

I actually woke up with that tune stuck in my head the other morning. Sad truth is probably that it's just a stock jingle used for ads and promos. =( I guess someone could tweet the question to Windows Phone on Twitter and see if they have any clue.

I heard a song on the radio the other night by Martin Solveig & Dragonette called "Hello." Maybe the one in the commercial is a remix of it? Martin Solveig & Dragonette - Hello (Official Music Video) [HD] - YouTube

 

[TheWeeBear]

Yeah i'm sure it's Martin Solveig's 'Hello' vocals that's used in the ad too.

Already did and I was ignored :dry


It would be a shame (if it's not a stock sound) not to know the name of this remix/song ever

Confirmed. There are 5 Ringtones (conveniently named Hello 1 through 5) of this song.

Oh man, this just made my hopes go higher. It's a shame they just can't share with us the complete song version :`(!

There's got to be someone who knows its name!!
Like "hey, look what we have but you can have it!" :lol:

 

[Sparxy19]

in the description of the app it says that the ringtones come from a composer called "ill.Gates"?
Binged his music but couldn't find that song.

Okay, am I the only one who sees something awkward about the composer's name? Hey, thanks for the tidbit!

Edit: I found illGates' site : http://illgates.com
I went over a few of his songs but so far none is the Hello song, I'm off to bed but if you have time, you could give it a shot yourselves!

Hey guys.

I too have been looking for this "song". So far I was happy with the average quality audio rip I got from the ad on YouTube, but I’d definitely love to get those 5 ringtones you’re talking about! Only, they seem to have disappeared from the "ringtone" space...

Would someone be so kind as to share them?

They aren't synced back with the Zune client as far as I can tell so there isn't a way to share them at the moment.

 

[Space Shadow]

That’s too bad. Thank you anyway!

So I asked someone at ill.gates.com and I just got a reply: it would appear that ill.gates did not make this music, and that Microsoft tends to use exclusive pieces of music for its ads. So yeah, this is not a full song and probably never will be... The only way to get to use it as a ringtone is to either get it via the Insider app (but I think it’s too late now) or rip the audio from YouTube (set it in HD so the sound’s better). ;D

 

[lumic]

Argh, must've missed the ringtones. Is it possible for anyone to post them as a download?

 

[TheWeeBear]

Don't think so lumic, as they can't be backed up from the Insider app.

 

[justop26]

They're gone now? Darn, I only downloaded Hello 3 which was the one I liked the most. Too bad they couldn't be synced up.

I know, so if you like any of the monthly ringtones in the insider app, download them straight away before you forget.
