not sure if anyone replied, so thanks for iterating this :)

I've tried this tune several times, the length is much better, quite good
actually. The tritone also seems like a good idea, for me though the
current sound is too "sharp", I'd personally smooth/sooth it a bit (not
sure about the proper terms in english :)

Also I'm not completely sure about the ending which starts around 00:02 -
the consecutive one-second-sound, I think it could just end with a single
tone (the last from the tritone maybe)?

Cheers
