Le répertoire de cet orchestre se compose de reprises arrangées de l'âge d'or de la musique moderne éthiopienne (1969-1978). Passant en revues les artistes phares de cette époque (Getatchew Mekurya, Mulatu Astaqe, Mahmoud Ahmed, etc.), Imperial Tiger Orchestra réinvente et s’approprie cette musique en l’intégrant à ses influences (The Ex, Aksak Maboul, Rootless Cosmopolitans, Lounge Lizards, etc..). Le répertoire moderne éthiopien (1980-1990) est également abordé. Musique essentiellement chantée, l’orchestre, entièrement instrumental, mets donc l’accent sur les grooves sombres et hypnotiques de la rythmique ainsi que sur les thèmes ciselés et aériens des cuivres. Improvisations, jeu sur les textures et dynamiques, sonorités distordues et « noise » viennent compléter le tout.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The orchestra's repertoire consists of revamped remakes from the Golden Age of Modern Ethiopian music(1969-1978).Visiting each of the foremost artists of period in turn, the orchestra blends Ethiopian rhythms with their own influences. Playing music that is usually sung, this entirely instrumental group emphasizes the dark and hypnotic grooves of the rhythmn as well as the polished, ethereal brass themes. Improvisations, a play on texture and dynamics, distorted sounds and "noise" complete the whole.
