LOVE the Ottman/Hitachi tango...

But it's too short! Anyone adept at "mixing" to make it at least two minutes?

"As for the music, there was so little time to prepare for the project that I temped with a piece from the French band, The Gotan Project. I wish I had had the time to write something of my own for the guide track. But I just needed a catchy rhythm to start editing, and that piece from the Gotan Project just keeps coming back. Temp love is as much a part of the commercial world as in film, so when coming up with the original music for the spot, it all had the tango approach of Gotan. But then I felt a little more traditional/sophisticated flair spiced in would add what the spot needed. So after all parties (many) agreed to the music, it was put to bed."



Have you looked up The Gotan Project music to see if it is one of theirs?

I read that and took it to mean that Gotan was used as the working music, but then later, he made his own, inspired BY it. I'm going to look up Gotan though. Either way, it's my ringtone now :D

I wondered about that too, but it just sounds so Gotan to me. Good luck finding it.
