Description:
This is an updated version of Slanter Vox with different vocal treatment. Still using the cumputerized comments supplied by Smokeyvw, but tweaked a bit more.

Lyrics:
Authored by: smokeyvw on Wed, 30 Aug 2006 18:50:09 -0500

there are many things i can imagine going well with this:

a rap, distorted rant about the current state of the world.

a smooth female vocal to counterbalance the rough-edged sounds - it
could almost become a "love song" in a way.

a chant, with 1 or 2 supporting vocal lines on it, something about life-
energy, or about getting your shit together.

maybe a nine-inch-nails sort of take on it: a single vocal with lots of
effects on it, the lyrics about how we're addicted to MacJams and can't
wrestle free of it!

Hardware:
eMac, iBook

Very Interesting Experiment &mdash 09/16/06 - 07:21:26 PM
Probably nothing smokeyvw ever expected when he wrote his comment.

It did blow his mind a little - check the comments on the first version. BTW -
thanks for checkin' in. Stay tuned for a Bud/Kevlar tape collab from the vault.

what exactly did you tweak? &mdash 09/16/06 - 09:22:22 PM
instead of hearing a difference in the vocals, i'm hearing the music
sounding brighter (more high end i guess).

also, it seems almost like when the vocal lines come in, the music drops
in volume slightly (but it's subtle - or my imagination). did you run the
master through a multiband compressor or something? just curious...

still, this song cracks me up. what a concept! Mungo's right, it was totally
unexpected - but i got a nice laugh out of the idea. and it's a great song
regardless of where the lyrics same from...

Not much but the timing ... &mdash 09/16/06 - 09:55:44 PM
I tweaked the placement of the vocals and cut up the female vocal to synch it up
more with the male voice. They speak at different speeds, which I later saw I
could effect at the source, but I didn't want to go back and rerecord, so I did it
by hand. Besides it's more more slippery this way. I shifted a few levels but
didn't change any EQ or compression. I realize that the vocals get a little lost in
the middle , but I like them as instruments there, and I think it pays off more at
the end when they take over.

Once again thank smokeyvw for the words, all I did was run em through
"speech" - cut em up and eq em a bit. Course the way i captured them was real
primitive. I had my eMac speak while my iBook recorded through it's little hole
mic.
