passion

This one's a tv stock sound but I've heard it in at least one video game(streets of Sim City), and I swear I've heard it at least once a week for every week of my life. The police radio lady. She says something along the lines of "plain and central 149th street... " or maybe "1-8-7 on 49th street.." I've heard it on old movies, new movies, videogames, and new tv shows(maybe Heroes? I can't remember). It's inescapable. I'd go on a rampage, but then the mounties would arrest me and there'd be a lady on the radio going "plain and central 149th street."

I love Crash more than anyone should love a game. I find myself stifling urges to spin crates at turtles, jump on wild hogs, and steal crystals at every opportunity. But I gotta say, I don't care for this tune. Too busy for my tastes. While I love the music to this series, I like the first game's more ambient style the best. The marimbas, lazy bass lines, and geographic-specific instrumentation(think didgeridoos)really sold me on the game. A decade later, I still quite often find myself humming the background to the first few levels. I think something simpler, like the songs from the first game, would have been a better choice. But what do I know, I don't even do remixing. I would have, had I caught wind of this contest a week ago, but I don't yet.
