Microsoft Wrongsmith... I mean, Songsmith

Meme du jour: Microsoft Songsmith, the band-in-a-Windows-box software that creates music for whatever you sing.  Actually, insert "cheesy" in front of "music" -- take a look at Microsoft's own cheesy commercial for the product and you're left wondering just who the indended market is for this thing.  The results are nothing you'll be releasing on YouTube anytime soon.  Or are they?

Some clever mashers figured out pretty quickly that a pop music vocal track can be fed into Songsmith, and -- er -- "something" will come out the other side.  YouTube already has a number of these Songsmith Mashups, but we decided to just go straight for the jugular -- using Microsoft Songsmith on the Microsoft Songsmith commercial itself:

 

We couldn't resist putting together a few Songsmih Mashups of our own too:

For the "I'll Be Your Mirror" show The ECC did three mashups with Velvet Underground material.  They were done live -- or rather, they were supposed to be done live, except TradeMark got carried away with other mashups and only got through one of the VU mashups... er, oops.  So these are rough mixes of all of them:

In 1993, The ECC's TradeMark G. and Cassie Rogers teamed up as MelloDeath and released a cassette album of piano lounge covers of punk and hard rock hits.  Recently, DJ Empirical posted MP3s of the cassette album, in all their hissy glory.  T'was a nice walk down memory lane, and inspired us to upload two unreleased tracks which never made it out before MelloDeath imploded:

Hipster, Please! invited The ECC to participate in their Old Nerdy Bastard compilation project, where the vocal tracks from various geeky songs are remixed and reworked by other geeky music types.  The ECC chose Jonathon Coulton's "Code Monkey", and got to try a new mashup concept.  The final result mixes Coulton's vocals over samples from 30 other songs and bands (in only 2 minutes and 40 seconds!), and the samples were meticulously picked to match the chord progressions of the original track.  The result is a choppy yet in-tune track that almost makes the listener dizzy with its fast pace.  We're pretty proud of this one!  Listen for yourself:

As you might expect, The ECC holds a mighty, massive archive of strange recordings for use as source materials.  Occasional nuggets from the archive can be downloaded and enjoyed in posts over at Dinosaur Gardens.  The latest:

Survive-All Fallout Shelter Radio Ads

The international struggles of our world may lead to… (ka-boom) NUCLEAR HOLOCAUST!

Nothing lends itself better to a fear-based advertising campaign than your family’s radioactive death. So when the Mort Kridel Advertising Agency was asked to create a radio ad campaign for Survive-All Fallout Shelters, they did their PR-darnedest to scare the Wonder Bread crap out of nuclear families everywhere.  [...]
