Ewe Tunes Launches For Christmas

By Jon

Icebreaker brings you surreal, customisable muscial bovines for the festive season :-)

We have no idea what the guys at Icebreaker are on, but the makers of New Zealand's finest merino wool garments, have reached down into their Christmas stocking fulll of inspiration and come up with - wait for it - Ewe Tunes, which is every bit as silly as it sounds...

Ewe Tunes from Icebreaker

Go to the Icebreaker web site, launch Ewe Tunes and you're away into a parallel universe where cut-out sheep form bleating musical tunes in birthday or Christmas mode. Or, if you're feeling particularly creative, you can put together your own custom tune by dragging and dropping sheep into a pleasingly snowy mountain landscape to form your own custom ewe tune...

And once you're happy with your composition, you can mail it to someone who's your friend now, but you may not ever want to see again...

You can find Ewe Tunes at www.icebreaker.com
