djhollowman Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 About 20 seconds or so into Tv advert (on Uk tv, for Olympic games) there's a really nice arpeggio part. I doesn't sound like it's played on a guitar, but it might sound good if it was! Anyone want to try to nail it? Deffo one for the sweep-picking shredders out there!

psw Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 Ahhh...pigsy...Soooo...Monkey!!! That is truly strange Not so hard though it begs the question why...it is a sequenced synth, sounds like a casio in fact. Sounds like straight 2 octave arpeggios up and down, round and round... Music was composed and produced by Gorillaz Damon Albarn Gorillaz in the Midst with out the social decay. It could get irritatingly annoying after a while but it could get stuck in the brain...not sure what it has to do with the olympics...does anyone know what the lyrics actually mean? Ahh...here is the full length version... A lot more arpeggio madness and it makes a bit more sense now...kind of...errr So does this mean they will be bringing back Monkey Magic, can't wait!!!! pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metalhead28 Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 It seemed pretty straight forward, so I just picked up my guitar and tried to play something that sounded similar. Certainly not an accurate transcription, but this has the same flavor: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psw Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 A pig is eating some chicken... I don't think the veggies are gonna like that. If you haven't seen the cult "kids" show (complete with bad overdubbed voices) or the real myth it is based on...these creatures are gods. Pigsy is insatiable in eating and sex, sandy the sea monster eats people and has shrunken heads around his neck and Monkey is irrepressible and often violent...except the priest has put a golden ring around his head to control him by giving him migraines. Personally, I liked the horse...they left out the horse! Classic show...still don't know what it has to do with the Olympics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
