How is ice cream van music made?

They use a crappy mechanical music box type thing, which is then miked up with a crappy microphone, which goes in to a crappy amp and finally broadcast using a crappy loudspeaker.

 

Resulting in a crappy but instantly recognisable sound

there is a little man who sits inside the plastic icecream thingy,who plays the music on a lil organ.He is always happy and smiley,and he hibernates with his miniature family all through the winter

Some of them do not hibernate, they are lucky enough to find employment in Pantomime.

Unfortunately numbers are restricted, as Snow White only has seven dwarfs.
