Bumblebee… or a Mosquito?

Covers, Electronic Art Music / , , , , , , , , , ,

This a parody on a very famous classical piece ‘Flight of the Bumblebee” by N.Rimsky-Korsakov. Paradoxically, it was also inspired by the imagery and feel of a brilliant Russian animation (“claymation”) “Yesteryear’s Snow Was Falling”, which has became classic in Russia since its creation in 1983.

Knowing about the Bumblebee origins, you can easily guess what’s going on in the piece. (If you are familiar with the plot of the original tale,  you’ll find the end a bit different, though. ) If you listen to it in headphones, the effect will be at its best.   –  Synthesizers, accordion, honky-tonk, insect killer racket, airplane, crowd…   //   Length 1:29, 140 bpm, 4/4
