World-Class Ad Agency needs a new arrangement/cover of the Beatles' song "All Together Now." They're looking for a raw, drum-oriented vibe that leans on Afro drums with bass. Very stripped down. Edgy. Cool. Emphasis on drums/percussive feel. Could have a loop in it but the agency referenced Burundi Drummers, a raw tribal vibe, as an example of how far left-of-center they want this cover. Vocals need to fit the attitude of the track. The agency also referenced the group Band of Skulls, so follow that lead. This HAS to sound like a band and NOT a library-ish, synth-generated track. This track is not slated to be used in a TV spot, but get your foot in the door with this one. All submissions must be received no later than Noon on Monday, May 24, 2010.
