Greetings,

In the latest issue of Perfect Sound Forever <http://www.furious.com/perfect/index0221.html>, you'll find (among other things):


WHISTLING
In movies & cartoons by bart plantenga
"The most ominous whistling ever heard is found on movie soundtracks. When you hear the whistling (mixed with yodeled wails) on Morricone's spaghetti western soundtracks you feel it stretching across an endless moment where time sounds mockingly boundless, and meets the desert wind at the horizon. Whistling has fascinated me since my childhood when my father regularly whistled an unknown melody. It offered him focus, calm, and - upon completion - an upbeat spring-bird whistle of personal fix-it triumph. I finally got the hang of it. This curiosity remained dormant until quite recently."


We're always looking for good writers and/or ideas so let us know if you have anything to share.

See you online,
Jason
