Good Vibrato

Contemporary classical is often obscure to the point of almost amusical. This is close to the bone, but there is enough in there to merit a listen. Whatever your reaction its definitely interesting!

If you aren't used to this kind of thing it's definitely an eye opener. It's interesting - i was in the position of watching MTV TV or Kerrang TV or something - (I don't actually have a TV, it was round at my sisters) and these channels are dedicated to Metal and Rock (usually genres that are about counter culture, alternative ideas and individualism)

Fork me, it sucked.

It was about as original and inspiring as corn flakes.. :-/

I really hate above all hearing auto tuned vocals. Basically, the way I see it - if this plug in is needed, then please - find another vocalist. There has been decades of great music without any of this kind of cop out - and now that we can turn the human voice into a synthesiser perfectly tuned instrument - anyone can become a lead singer...

NO NO NO,

There are loads of great singers out there - please for the love of Music - just use someone who can sing and who can impart real human emotion into their singing.

Ah well - I suspect the new millenium's first decade of musical contribution will be relgated, somewhat like the 80's into over produced plastic cheese hell. Never to be taken very seriously by any audiophile in the decades to come..

" Wow check out that lack of dynamic range.. my shit hot year 2050 model speakers really show up how the production of the year 2007 lacked almost all taste. Man even records that are 30 years older sound better!

And those autotuned vocals with clearly audible artefacts and ridiculous perfectly pitched harmonies.. man they sound like my 3 year olds toy synthesizer...

I'm telling you - thats how it's going to be....
