Tika Tika Walk

Tika Tika Walk, in Norway, is primarily known as the music accompany for the 'Brelett' (a butter brand) advertisement. A catchy and carefree tune that we associate with cycling, sun and summer, cows and butter. The tune is taken from the French post-apocalyptic cannibal comedy 'Delicatessen' (1991) and was written by French-Argentine composer Carlos d'Alessio. This was one of the last things he wrote before he passed away in 1992. A cheerful melody with a rather black background.

The arrangement is done in a Latin style. If you add guiro to the instrumentation it will make the latin style even better. Drums can play what is written or do a Latin groove. Select a soloist or let everyone play the solo part from bar 77.
