To speed up an audio recording, especially a song, to make the voices high-pitched.
Etymology: 1832; alteration (influenced by chipping squirrel) of earlier, from older ‘squirrels’ (modern ajidamoo), literally ‘those who descend headlong’, from - ‘headfirst, face-down’ (compare modern ajijibizoibizo ‘he falls headfirst’, ajidagoojinagoojin ‘he hangs upside down’). The verb developed due to the high-pitched voices of the chipmunks in the film Alvin and the Chipmunks.
