## Species Aligned With Organic Downtempo & Micro-Sampling

- [Blue Jay](https://animaltracks.wiki/animals/blue-jay/) (*Cyanocitta cristata*)
  - **Musical Match**: The Avalanches, "Since I Left You"
  - **Biological Rationale**: A blue jay can do a remarkable imitation of the scream of a Red-shouldered Hawk. The Avalanches built "Since I Left You" from other people's recordings, borrowing sounds the way the jay borrows a hawk's.
  - **Superpower**: Can imitate the scream of a Red-shouldered Hawk
- [Bonobo](https://animaltracks.wiki/animals/bonobo/) (*Pan paniscus*)
  - **Musical Match**: The Books, "Take Time"
  - **Biological Rationale**: Bonobos have been observed sponging water out of tree trunks with moss, fashioning a rain hat out of leaves and shaping a toothpick out of a twig. The Books build their songs the same way, from found sounds and small sampled fragments.
  - **Superpower**: Largely peaceful: a 2011 paper found no confirmed record of infanticide among bonobos, and a 2014 study of four bonobo communities over five decades logged one suspected killing.
- [Brazilian Treehopper](https://animaltracks.wiki/animals/brazilian-treehopper/) (*Bocydium globulare*)
  - **Musical Match**: Bonobo, "Cirrus"
  - **Biological Rationale**: Complex micro-rhythmic textures and delicate chimes, assembled the way the crown is: a folded package under the old skin that unpacks into a finished structure in about 30 minutes at the last molt.
  - **Superpower**: A globe-tipped pronotal crown that grows folded under the skin of the final nymph and unpacks itself in about half an hour at the last molt, for a function entomologists still call unknown.
