Samidiplantaraomer by Buttress O'Kneel
so
STEP 1) make samplants. samplants are created by using the lyrics of a song to create a new piece, by finding the same phrases or words or even full sentences in other songs and sticking them together with no concern for melody or rhythm. important instrumental passages can be recreated by using various cover versions of the song yr recreating. THIS IS HOW TO SAMPLANT.
STEP 2) turn these samplants into samplantaraoke versions by running them thru one of those cool stem-separator-type thingies online (there are lots, they're easy to find). so now these pieces (which u have created based ENTIRELY around the lyrics) have no words. so now it's just a crazy clashing of unrelated musics! woohoo!
STEP 3) so then, u think "so what happens if i rehomogenise the samplantaraoke pieces by turning them all into midi piano?" and then u go and do that using free online mp3-midi converters. but instead of midi piano, u decide to go crazy and use a different sound, a cool organ-sounding sound, coz why not. AND THEN u think "hey, but maybe i can homogenise the vocals as well, and put them back over this midi organ base?" and then u remember that there are "change your voice into a celebrity" kinda of online converters, and u find one, and u pick the voice of HOMER SIMPSON coz u grew up with that shit and his voice is inherently funny and distinctive and kinda universal somehow. so then u do that and it is good.
that is how SAMIDIPLANTARAOMER was created! a series of ridiculous ideas pursued to their natural end. and u know what? i actually love how A.I. at this stage is a bit shit, because it gives these pieces a beautifully authentic karaoke vibe - it's like it really is Homer Simpson, drunk as fuck, slurring and mis-hearing his way thru a karaoke session! the fact that it fucks up the words so often actually ADDS to the experience.
i honestly don't think anyone will enjoy this as much as i do... BUT HOLY SHIT DO I ENJOY THIS!

“Words like "mashup" and "remix" don't really do justice to Buttress O'Kneel's method - Top 40 pop crap gets sliced, diced, and tossed into a dizzying, exciting hardcore electro stew. Compared to other djs who timidly drop a Vanilla Ice acapella over a Chemical Bros intro just to move a dance floor, O'Kneel shreds copyrights with a blood-curdling vehemence. Smash the state!”
