What will Windows Vista sound like? Ask Robert Fripp
ENT News | at | by Mike
Microsoft recently had King Crimson co-founder Robert Fripp over to Microsoft Studios a few blocks from the company's Redmond, Wash. campus, to record some sounds that may well end up being the startup music when you boot Windows Vista.
Known in recent years for the evocative, highly-textured musical soundscapes that he creates using his guitar in conjunction with various delays, echo units and other audio processors, Fripp recently spent several hours at the studios, as shown in a video posted by Microsoft blogger Robert Scoble on Microsoft's online developer site, Channel 9, last week.
