Cue of the Week: Building the Bat

Here's the next cue in the Against Time series. This is my take on "teenage genius busy at work inventing a futuristic basebat bat" music. Yes, that old cliche.

The music was written for orchestra, piano, acoustic guitar, bowed vibraphone, electric bass, and - you guessed it - tabla. I'd like to say that the eclecticism of the instruments represented some sort of high-fallutin' musical analogue to the fast-working inventive mind of Ean Merig's character... but honestly, I just liked those particular instrumental colors.

Sadly, the tabla is a bit buired in the mix; hopefully I'll be able to coax it out again for the soundtrack version.

I don't know that was pretty "high fallutin'". I should've brought my high fa-lute for the session. Then there would've been no question. Next time let me know.
