What Are You Listening To? (Vol.34)

I posted this a month ago and I don't think anyone clicked it. I'll post it again with an explanation.

The audio stream:

Beethoven's 9th Symphony plays for around an hour. A guy got the idea in 2002 to stretch the audio of an original performance from 1 hour to 24, and use software to return the pitches back to the original key. What came out the other end is a slow motion car crash of music. The smallest fraction of a beat in the original song is stretched out to 3-24 seconds. The stream has played for 24 hours a day for 19 years.

What interests me most about the experiment is the end result is timeless; you can hear glimpses of every note ever written at this speed. Every series of chords ever played back to back to back.

If you click the link and jump in, and the music offends you, close your eyes and wait 1 minute.


This is like listening to Vangelis.
 

I saw this going around, and regrettably gave it a listen. I know that the whole schtick is that it's "4 women"(a drummer, and some other guy) playing Pantera. Musically, if it's really them playing..bravo! If I saw a cover band and they performed it this way, it would be awesome.

Vocally though....could it be anymore studio autotuned/pitch corrected? Then add the video of Lizzy Hale, and emo boy acting like they're badass?..and then the Domination snippet at the end? They can fuck off. Atleast Phil could do it live.
