Meerkats in a hot air balloon

By adnorm on July 24, 2022 11:59 pm

I've been "adulting" a lot lately so I had to regress a bit... all the way back to the 3rd grade when I wrote and illustrated a story about meerkats in a hot air balloon. Not sure exactly why that resurfaced in my mind but it was the inspiration for this week's Weekly Beat.


In the process, I learned that meerkats have different calls for different predators and actions - their own language. Some meerkat calls are featured in this track. I wonder what meerkats might say if they were to see a predator from high above in their hot air balloon?

Our friends flying away:

I wrote some rap lyrics but didn't get around to recording them. Maybe in a future wb I will release a part 2 or extended version lol

Thanks for listening and have a wonderful week

Lol! This track is going places!

So nice and so uncomfortable to listen to hahaha big_smile well done! Good percussions

bon voyage meerkats!

It's hard to think of a more fun or delightful image than meerkats in a hot air balloon.  Hope they had a lovely time.  Couldn't help but smile along to this track.

love those playful vox big_smile ...and you evoke such sweet sorrow with those crooning synth lines, everything complementing each other so well in the mix heart
