[Design-team] First few jingles

[Tom medhurst]

Thanks for clarifying all of that wonderer!

I've spoken to my musical "partner in crime" who has agreed to write some
lyrics and we'll put something together over the next week.

We'll probably write something over a very common progression, (like the
I-VI-II-V progression) so people will instantly be able to identify with the
track, but will make sure it is clearly about Fedora and the all the
features you mentioned.

This will also make it simple to adapt to any style (Swing, Dance, Pop, Rock
etc..)

Thanks!
Tom
