This guy from Australia edits dialogue from films into really trippy trance music. It's very good.

I see a somewhat larger implication in his work... by creating melodies out of the variation in pitch that occur naturally in regular speech, it's implying that anybody who can speak can sing. It's implying there's innate musicality in everybody, and everything, on earth. I know he's not the first person to have done this but it's certainly one of the best executed examples.

[Fred]

When someone can't sing a basic melody line, it's usually because they have hard time teaching their voice to sing the notes that their mind is thinking, no?

[Nikmis]

no is right

[Dr. M]

Everybody on Earth has some amount of musical aptitude, yes. I think that's what you're asking.

[Nikmis]

but in the case he mentioned, i think their mind isn't thinking of notes but concepts

[Nikmis]

also, i thought this thread was going to be about the chestnut juno album

[Dr. M]

I thought you would think that.
