Yeah I did, posted about it on Reddit a couple of days ago but didn't get a lot of love for the idea!ffloyd wrote: does anyone else notice that the 'musical callsign' loop sounds very close to the Close Encounters motif?

Yes - that's what I thought. Lots of activity.GRIM.657 wrote:woah these higher quality live recordings are very very interesting. And they were uploaded in the days just before the RSD Incident.
yes, i've a tonne of money on it's based on it.ffloyd wrote:does anyone else notice that the 'musical callsign' loop

as in: the boc callsign goes Bflat, C, Aflat, Dflat, Eflat
and the C.E. mofit goes Bflat, C, Aflat, Aflat(octave down), Eflat
means probably nothing except I'm looking anywhere for clues...

I mean seriously, all they would have had to have done is announced a release date and thousands of fanboys would have shit themselves. It wouldn't take a campaign of this magnitude to placate the masses.
Yeah I thought the same, but the Close Encounters' jingle is probably derived from this anyway. John Williams is pretty good at taking other people's melodies and slightly changing them.KingSpanner wrote:It has always sounded like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUSKLNjj ... page#t=28s to me personally.

yes, but i'll say it again, the relevance, where is that to be found in the westminister bells? i'm not talking about the sound/audio, the message in the film, first contact.Keeoaddi wrote:Yeah I thought the same, but the Close Encounters' jingle is probably derived from this anyway.

Didn't think about it all that deeply but i also thought it was connected. If it is/was connected i dont think it has anything to do with "the hunt" tho, more the way it's all been conducted.thepastinsidepressant wrote:

i don't think there is any connection, apart from the numbers stations sometimes using a snippet of music to introduce their broadcasts. just saying it sounds more like the westminster chimes to me than the close encounters tune.thepastinsidepressant wrote:yes, but i'll say it again, the relevance, where is that to be found in the westminister bells? i'm not talking about the sound/audio, the message in the film, first contact.Keeoaddi wrote:Yeah I thought the same, but the Close Encounters' jingle is probably derived from this anyway.

probably nothing of evidence, but i was doing some research on the westminster bells, trying to see if the tune was used for any documented number stations. i couldn't find anything, but i guess the westminster bells are used as test for some emergency sirens in the US. i did some youtubing, and i couldn't help but notice the overall BoC vibe in the timbre of the siren.nickb523 wrote:Didn't think about it all that deeply but i also thought it was connected.
