Yeah, I actually got a compulation from that and I noticed Fred saying
something like, "remix inbound" or something.

Justin, have a listen to Benny Benassi - Hypnotica
He's a techno DJ (from NYC I believe) and there are Apple voices
all over that particular album.
HTH and have a great evening!…

Hello all
You may be wondering about the subject line. I'll try to make it
quick.
I recently got this idea to make a playlist of songs that use
synthesized speech. I know we have a lot of synthesized speech in
the blind community, songs that are made by blind people that
essentially are all with synthesized speech. I have the jaws rap,
and the happy birthday/ he's a jolly good fellow, which was done
with the dectalk voices, which I think I will put on this. There
is the skit "whose on ffirst" that I would like to put at the
beginning and I hope that Josh won't mind this. But there are also
songs that just average artists make that include synthesized
speech. Right now I am listening to "keep talking" by pink floyd
which I think features the synthesized speech that Stephen Hawking
used to talk with. I think I have another techno mix that seems to
use the apple voices. I also have one about robots "f***ing" in
the park which features our darling victoria in the mac community.
These are, to the best of my knowledge, made by sighted people that
sighted and blind alike enjoy listening to once in a while.
So when I have a playlist of songs like this, I would like to offer
them up in burned CDs for my lab class at Berkeley. I bet we all
get a lot of questions about the synthesized speech that we use
that no one can understand, but I suspect that lots don't really
know how much they themselves use synthesized speech. I just felt
like this would be a really cool form of outreach that would help
me put myself out there, and that would make us not seem so
strange. Does this make any since.
So this request is for any songs that include synthesized speech
that any of you may have. I would really much more prefer music
that is just mainstream stuff like the pink floyd, but some songs
directly from the blind community would be considered for inclusion
as well.
I'm so sorry this message has been so long, but I think you for
reading up to here, and I sure would be happy if you could help me
out with this. I would like to have the CD done up and ready as
soon as possible as we have midterms and finals and then the end of
the term coming up in mid may which means that there is not much
time left. Again thanks for your time, and please please please
see if you could come up with anything.
Regards
Justin Harford
