Lars Edvall - Sony Ericsson Winter Christmas 2008 pitched ringtones Tech Product Bangers 2023-12-24 | This is a winter/Christmas-themed Sony Ericsson ringtone project from November 2008, making it one of Lars' last projects with the company. Unfortunately not a single one of these was sold - it's possible that this project was cancelled altogether, as Lars mentioned that SE would frequently start projects then cancel them. These were most likely intended to be downloadable, especially given how they were made a month prior to Christmas.0:00 Chasing Rudolph0:27 Cinderella0:52 Figure Skating1:18 Fireplace1:50 First Snow2:14 Frost is Fine2:38 Robo-Santa2:56 Snowflakes
