One of the newest, and most ingenious, money making ringtone genres to sprout up in recent years features stars of music saying your name and telling you to pick up your phone. They are called voice tones from music stars and they are a trend that is sweeping the nation. Let’s take a look at how they work and see if they are something that you might be interested in!
With voice tones music stars, a recording artist, and it can be anyone from Garth Brooks to Trent Reznor, will make a series of short recordings, usually only 10 seconds or so long, saying different names. The process of recording the names can actually take hours if the artist is dedicated and wants to sell as many ringtones as possible. They simply say a name and then they record a message, something along the lines of, “pick up your phone, its ringing, one of your friends wants to talk to you, or maybe your parents.” The editors then make separate versions of each ringtone with a different name at the beginning and then the rest of the spoken text. This way, you can have your all time favorite singer or recording artist talking to you directly and saying your name every time your phone rings.
For many kids these days, voice tones music stars, as well as other forms of ringtones, have become big business. Some kids even have a different purchased ringtone for each and every person who calls them on a regular basis.
Voice tones of music stars is a growing industry that is only going to get bigger as time goes on. Soon, every major music star is going to have a voice tone available. The only major problem will be if you have an obscure name that is unlikely to be on the list of those recorded—sorry Maddox and Shiloh!
