A (Text) Selection of (Future) Cybergoth Vocal Samples

Liner Notes

Skirmish prompt was about a "mystical or magical experience". I couldn't think of anything with a storytelling vibe, but then thought about an electronica project I want to do (but need more gear for). Basically, generative physical gear (synths, bass modules, drum pads, keyboard, etc.) where I would have some DJ decks loaded with spoken / sung snippets to throw over the music. I'd already decided I wanted to call that project Witchkraft. Perfect for this prompt!

What follows below are some ideas for vocal samples, to be recorded once I can actually use them. With my finances, that should be around 2028 lol.

Oh. It's a gothic project, so the samples are... odd.

24 minutes spent on the idea and these liner notes. Rest of the hour on samples. Okay, and... GO!

Lyrics

This is now. The never.

I thought I heard...

Something.

(Shrieking screams layered with manic laughter.)

I cannot condone this kind of behaviour.

Drugs, sex, and murder. (Unhinged laughter.) A girl's best friend.

Call the, call the, call the navy, we have a stonewashed bitch right here.

Have fun. If you don't, then *they* win. Do you want *them* to win, Sharon?!

Shaaaaaaaron. Aaaaaaaaron. Kaaaaaaaaren. (Pause music for dead silence for a few seconds, then resume with a clearing of the throat.)

Dance, bass, dance, dance. Dance, bass, dance.

(Sung) We neeeeeever even knewwwww you, but eeeeeeeev'ryone knows *you*. (A sinister hissing / growling sound.)

(Manic) She's a witch! A witch I say!

(Extremely bass) She's a witch! A witch I say!

Sufficiently advanced musical technology is indistinguishable from magic to the uninitiated. This is your final warning. Bass!

My goddess created existence and all I got was a three-hour-long orgasm.

I use everything in dark mode. (Sounding scared) It's still too bright.

So, a goth, a metalhead and the saviour walk into a bar...

This station is nullified.

Move. Move. Move along, terrified plebian.

Clang, clang, evil sex.

Vampirism is a real condition. The pupils dilate when aroused. The scent of men makes vampires angry. They only drink the blood they spill because vampires are a clean people. But blood *will* spill.

(Nervous laughter) Werewolves aren't real! Hahaha... (Suddenly very businesslike) So it's thirty bucks for a blowy.

Pornography turns people into mindless killers. Same as how video games make people perverts. My name is Lara Croft. Welcome to my TED talk.

I love you.

I killed a man. His name was Pablo. He wore a tiara.

The left-hand path is sinister, sister.

I'm afraid our time is up. Before next session, I'd like you to practice -

Dying.

I don't know. I - don't - ...know?

We're gonna get sued for sure.

There, that oughta hold us for the rest of the apocalypse.

Nature will prevail. Unless we use a gun.

Nuclear armageddon is a girl's best friend.

Say it with me: (Monkey shrieking sounds) Let it out.

Time is an illusion. Mirrors are an illusion. Don't go into the bathroom. It isn't safe.

Lizards are our natural predators. As the planet warms, these cold-blooded killers will get more and more energetic. We must prepare.

War is inevitable, in the same way taxes are inevitable. They currently exist, and humanity has lost the ability to imagine a better way of life.
