Song made entirely of Mac OSX system sounds

Tuesday, February 26th, 2008

Mike Solomon is a New York City based graphic designer, photographer, and musician who decided it was time to compose an entire song out of Mac OSX sound effects…

“As if all the sound effects of the Mac OSX interface weren’t annoying enough, I decided to take things a step too far. Enjoy!”

You can even download the Garage Band file and mashup a new version for yourself.

Oh, and for you PC users, here’s one made entirely of Windows system sounds. It’s actually quite good.

  1. I have to admit, Windows beats OS X on this front:

  2. I agree the Windows music is more interesting musically, but I like the purity of the MacOX version – the sounds are all original, with no pitch shifting. It is easy to make a more interesting piece when you use the source sounds as samples and generate any notes you want. It is a true challenge to make something interesting with the found pitches only.

  3. Pretty sweet – lol. I have to agree with Jason – the Windows version is a bit more impressive, but the Mac version is much more pleasing to the ear.
