Sound of the Week for 9/17/12
For some reason, months and months ago, I decided that this would be my alarm every time my life warranted an alarm. I was sick of the grating pitch of the standard alarm clock, which I'd endured for years, nor was I fond of waking up to commercials or the occasional pop song when I opted for the fm radio route. The standard iPhone jingle wouldn't work, either, because whenever it would, I instantly thought I was receiving a phone call.
Finally, after much trial and error, I choose the Harp ringtone as my wake up call. The Harp is generally soothing and idyllic, so naturally I enjoy being lulled awake by it's dulcet tones. It's easy to listen to as the notes scale up and down and no matter how many times I hit snooze, I never get annoyed by its sound.
