Hey guys,
Got a client doing a saturday morning show, nothing but cartoon music. Anybody out there had any success recreating those sound effects they get on those old school cartoons? I've got the walking up and down the stairs thing, have the mexican hat dance. I'm looking for that sound when they run hysterically, sounds like bongos and something else? I know I'm not explaining well, but I'm sure you guys know the basic idea of sounds I'm going for.

Thanks for any help!

I had a friend in high school who could get this sort of sound from our piccolo snare drum by playing at the edge and catching a lot of rim. I think he was either playing double strokes or fast singles...
