The Man who is He.. Group: Members Posts: 75 Joined: Oct. 2005 Posted: Oct. 25 2005, 17:13 Mike used his own voice (sort of) as well. He said it gives a deep choral type of effect. I don't know what he ate for breakfast that morning though... Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: Oct. 27 2005, 18:21 Of course I'm not forgetting No Dream - it's just that the gorilla song popped up in my mind when thinking of a song where Mike went really low - vocally, I mean. There also are some hmmmms during TBII (Maya Gold in particular), and the 'out demon out' part in Outcast, but I don't think the latter one can be considered a 'sung' part. Same goes for the Piltdown Man. -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top
