The horn of the Robert Smalls

I can't stop thinking about the Black-centered remake of The Dukes of Hazzard . (Previously: [ 1 ] [ 2 ].) In the previous article I observed that while I had found a satisfactory way to replace the General Lee (now the Robert Smalls) and its Confederate flag, I was stuck on its horn sound, which in the original plays “Dixie”. I workshopped this with Claude yesterday and found what I think is an excellent solution. James Brown's “I Got You (I Feel Good)” starts with: I feel good! (Wah-wah wah-wah wah-wah wah) Listen here Even the parts of this that aren't already horns still sound like horns!
