Jimmy boy did they also take your soul away?
They sure knew how to introduce the boogie real goooood 
Awesome arrangement. The blues progression works like a great anchor around which to twist the vocal taffy. Great stuff.
Sorta dark funky and bluesy. Dig it.
HAHAHA. This is fantastic. And ipaghost's gif is just perfect.
Very cool track! I like the progression a lot

I keep my soul on the bottom of my shoe.

Thank you, thank you! Did I remember to thank you?
Marvellous! Darkly funny, and the chord progression works incredibly well in this context.
I always enjoy the way you warp and manipulate vocal samples. Marrying them to the standard blues chord progression makes for another successful attempt at melding "alien" sounds with familiar sounds.
Is this some kind of Autotune or Melodyne or did you actually find Max Headroom to sing this for you? Very cool!
thanks to all for your listens!
sutch a sketch fest of eerie sketchyness...
and scritchiness, too.

I thought a slithery blues would suit the subject :-)

No melodyne or autotune, just chopping/transposing by hand.

It's like cooking -- frozen dinners are real convenient, but occasionally you want to see if you can still do it from scratch :-)
Nice! great sample manipulation!
