Liner Notes

#exotica #tiki #answersong #slack

Last night after a conversation about making tiki drinks with full-size umbrellas in a kiddie pool, I was low-key prompted by @catmisgivings to write "the sequel to "Tiny Umbrellas" making everything sound huge" and I'm not one to back down from a challenge. Less of a song and more of a vibe pallet, but lots of fun to make.

I was there in the slack for when you said you were going a-tiki-ing but I missed all subsequent discussion (why did my kids need to go to bed just then?!) anyways, I love the kinda tribal energy of this with the drums and pan flute and drone. Echoey cave voice is insanely epic. As are the lyrics lol

Yes, a great swimming pool (not just a kiddie pool) of sound to lounge in with these big sounds.

This is so entrancing. White lotus has nothing on you! Just want to run it on loop and pretend I’m somewhere warm without so much snow!

@fallguy 2d

Cool vibe! Great complement to the other song, which I loved also. As a percussionist, I'm really interested to know what you used for the shaker sound that came & went ... was that a sample, or a live instrument?

@carleybaer 2d

Thank you! That was live, it’s a cabasa.

I am now such on tiki drinks in kiddie pools with full size umbrellas. I haven't to had alcohol in a year so that sounds amazing! 😍🤣

@froggymagee 2d

oooo la la! Me likey. Me likey a lot! I feel like this could totally be in a movie/show of some sort. It has so much movement to it, holy crapola, jaw on the floor...

@aeye 2d

This sounds like the ceremony where we bring out the giant umbrellas for the kiddie pool which will soon be filled with mai tai or some other tropical drink.
