Franz Sapka's "Party"

"Othello and the Tigress" The little tune features homemade samples from a set of niobium "noise" magnets, an ancient two-tone whistle, and my trusty West African djembé. The video is actually 138 separate photographs, stitched together on a stop motion freeware called MonkeyJam (R). The whole thing was inspired by Bix Tiger's "Solange." Thanks again Bix.
