I never knew war swung.
Nice track man. What's the voice source? I love it.

If it didn't, who would fight? Mac "Vicki" voice, slightly pitch-shifted, vocoded & auto-tuned, then put back in the trenches.
Oh, this is great! Excellent rhythmic chopping and use of the Vicki voice! War is over...if you want it!
Loving the creative vox usage per usual! Groovy drums as well!

Appreciate the comments! A gold star for Vicki.
The swing element gives it a bit of a retro-futuristic feel. Like 1950's idea of robots going off to war. Cool stuff.

Re computer voices: I just discovered that the Mac OS has a customize option which enables the addition of a number of voices in European and Asian languages, including Australian English (and no, they're not Bruce and Sheila).
This is completely excellent ! Fantastic track !
This is very funny because last sunday when you posted this track, I was playing a live set.
And in this live set, I was playing with the barbie Girl lyrics, played with many Mac voices.
I'll record this set one day, and share it with you
