I found this article which might be of use . It mentions music production near the bottom of the page : -

Hehe - I’m in 100% agreement there. Kiwis defintely seem more fit than Yanks, though I’m afraid the proliferation of (American) fast food may change that. Most blokes will show evidence of having consumed their share of pints, but overall seem much more toned. And they like to wear shorts year-round to prove it, even on the jobsite.
Back on topic, while the Mr. Whippy man plays “Yankee Doodle Dandy”, the milkie (milkman) plays “Greensleeves”. Are there many places left in the States that have milkmen?
And we have yet to find a definitive answer on the method that ice cream trucks produce their sound. Obviously, a PA system, but what is the sound source? Tape loop? Digital sample? Any doper ice cream guys?

Heh! I have a all-year-round-short-wearing-chippie brother. Sure as shit he ain’t wearing the shorts to prove anything!
Back on topic again. It’s always Greensleeves that I have heard. It’s tinny-ish-ness (oh look I invented an almost word) suggests a very bad cassette.

Like Mort Furd said, there are ice cream trucks in Germany. The one that comes by my neighborhood every day uses a fire bell…before I looked out the window and saw him driving down, I thought our fire station got way too many calls in the summer! They serve great ice cream out of them, though…scoops in cones and dishes, sundaes, etc…fantastic!

Hi!
You’re just down the road from me. I’m in Meisenheim, over towards Bad Kreuznach. I know that the US Army still has a post over in K-Town - are you an American?
