Leonard Smalls Posted August 6, 2015 Posted August 6, 2015 I've made a start as well... And it's got sitars too! Quote
xgsjx Posted August 6, 2015 Posted August 6, 2015 Damn you. Now I'm gonna have to try & incorporate some sitar too! Quote
Leonard Smalls Posted August 6, 2015 Posted August 6, 2015 Be very afraid... There's flute, some sitar, tablas with a housey backbeat and a whole lot of bass. Them tigers are damned funky! Quote

I think their swimming runs to about 100 yards across a slow running river but, hell, I can't talk about idiomatic integrity? My tiger plays a bhodran!! Quote

Skol303 Posted August 10, 2015 Author Posted August 10, 2015 [size=4]Great entries so far.[/size] [size=4]I managed to make a start on mine over the weekend. No flouncy pianos or other real instruments for me this month... it's shaping up to be more my usual staple of MIDI and sample-based perversion. Plus ethnic stuff.[/size] [size=4]That said, I still can't stop humming 'Eye of the Tiger'... thanks xgsjx! Grrr.[/size] Quote

[/quote] Went to the chippy for lunch today & it was playing in there! Had I been able to get away with it, I'd have used a sample or two from it in my track. Quote
lurksalot Posted August 10, 2015 Posted August 10, 2015 I have found myself an 'in' to the picture , as I guess the tiger is in fact an Asian tiger of one type or another , I intend to use my Spector Legend for this challenge , this bass was made in Korea which is in Asia , so linkage established. Its just what sort of tune to play with it is the next problem , but I see a lolloping kind of groove as tigers mostly lollop , when they are not running on the sea that is , though it could be fishing for jellyfish , and they kind of flop around a bit , so its definately a lollopy floppolly groove I need Quote

After checking a few photies ,I've taken it as the Sumatran tiger........and they have webbing between their claws.....so wicket-keeping is always an option !!! Quote
Leonard Smalls Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 (edited) Mine's done... No actual tigers though, just 2 blokes trying not to have a punch up in an Indian restaurant, with my Mrs supplying the calming influence...
