This is neat.  I’m listening to an Imogene Heap track that sounds like she:

a) recorded an entire song’s worth of words/syllables on one pitch,
b) mapped those syllables to a synthesizer,
c) played “herself” singing a stack of harmonies for a song, then
d) sang the melody and primary harmony tracks over it.

Which track? Which album?

I love Hide and Seek on Speak for Yourself. I know, probably one of her more popular ones, but doesn’t make it any less good… :)

Sweet. Yeah, the first time we heard that song, both Heather and I were blown out of the water. Pretty amazing stuff.

it really is - something different from all the rest of the stuff that’s out there. it’s cool you know of it. =) Dave doesn’t get why I like it.

how do you listen to that song?

@freddyplag: Not quite sure what you’re asking, here. I bought the soundtrack to “the Last Kiss” - Zach Braff’s new movie - on iTunes and listen to it there. That answer your question?
