Notes from Thomas about this arrangement:
Ah… there's nothing like the hot winds of the Game Brass blown' in yer face. Summer is here, mateys, and we're sailing in with the crew from DiscoCactus to bring ye an arrangement of the Opening Theme from the Secret of Monkey Island! This laidback, occasionally ominous, piece maybe doesn't do a lot to warn ye about how ludicrous yer adventure through the Caribbean is going to be, but that's also true of any DiscoCactus performance.
Every musician in DiscoCactus is an absolute virtuoso, and it was important that they all get a chance to feature themselves. I also wanted to take some cues from their own arrangements, especially those of keyboard player Ben Wallace, and a certain vocal break late in this track is an homage to that.
So hop aboard, and prepare to be insulted by this Game Brass/DiscoCactus mash-up!
