While there are dozens of Windows-themed songs out there, few thought of rubbing those neurons together to compose a song using the sound effects in Mac OS X. Well, this guy did, and it sounds pretty cool. He's also putting the project up for grabs, so you can continue or completely alter what he's started in GarageBand.

GarageBand is a software application developed by Apple itself. It allows users to create music or podcasts, and is included in all shipments of iLife. The app boasts some impressive sequencing capabilities, and is easy to use with various sound samples and effects.

Many will agree that Windows sound effects make much better music than those found in Mac OS X. However, this is only because Microsoft's OS is packed full of sounds that notify the user of an error. Those “bangs” can rip your cardboard speakers to shreds, but they also make some solid bass – the essence of nowadays music. Mac OS X, on the other hand, boasts high-pitched, colorful sounds, which can be funny, when timely-arranged in GarageBand's track editor. Hence, Mike Solomon's creation.

“As if all the sound effects of the Mac OSX interface weren’t annoying enough, I decided to take things a step too far,” says Solomon. “Due to popular demand, I’m posting the GarageBand file I created that’s responsible for this madness. Feel free to have your way with it,” he explains on his website.

The New York City-based graphic designer, photographer, and musician “can’t stop creating digital content,” it is said in the About section of his site. Mike Solomon also works as a creative director at DCF Advertising and VP / Chief Technology Strategist of DCF Advertising’s new interactive department, DCF Labs. He does stuff like this in his “spare time,” we presume. And, “because he is awesome,” he lives in Chinatown.

So, if you know how to make a simple GarageBand music project, you're good to go too. See if you can work those OS X sounds into something even catchier. Let us know if you do, by the way.
