This is a call from a person who is into far out music to all the other people of this world who into far out music to get companies to change the awful hold music they use on there call lines to the entire discography of experimental german composer Karlheinz Stockhausen.


As many of you must of experienced  Phone companies, ISP's, Banks and Airlines all play hold music at you while you while you wait for someone of the service team. It can be a very ugly experience that i'd compare to being stuck inside a toilet cubical with a painful loop of the lowest quality mp3 chosen by the most annoying person in existence  Earlier today after over 30 minutes spent on hold after calling up a company i was left so frustrated, upset and traumatised by a particular annoying 30 second song they played 60 or so times that i felt the need to make this appeal.


I chose Karlheinz Stockhausen as, for most people into experimental music, he is someone of great interest. I for one have not listened to his entire discography but i would like to and doing it while on hold to the various phone lines i have to call would be an ideal place to do it.


Please sign and share this if if something you agree should be made obligatory and maybe we'll make the companies listen

Anything is better than that looped flute garbage they play at the bank. My brain literally melts after 5 minutes of that. Lets get some real art on the line.
