Back when I was a musician and doing a lot of folk music events a few of us thought it would be funny if a dalek, a cyberman, and a mechanoid tried to record Danny Boy together. And since I'd just built a custom effects box that had everything you'd need to find out, well

guess what I got reminded of last week

so I dug it out and now you can "enjoy" Cyborgs Behaving Badly (Danny Boy), the from-behind-the-mixing-desk remix

i either recommend for or strongly against headphones, depends upon how much you (dis)like your eardrums and/or housemates xD

@moira This is the worst thing I've ever heard, I love it
@liferstate this is exactly my favourite kind of review, thank you <3
@liferstate (it occurs to me that may read as sarcastic: _it is not_. My favourite review of my writing referred to one of my novels as a hurricane of euphoric psychopathy and I didn't just want to frame that review I wanted to build a house out of it and live inside.)
@moira I have listened to this without headphones to display my contempt for the laws of man and god.

@moira

OMG.

I had no idea you had this... uh ... side.

@futurebird Hey, look, I'm just the bot behind the desk here. xD

(And also the sfx and also the mechanoid)

@moira

I will say this: it very much sounds like dalek, a cyberman, and a mechanoid tried to record Danny Boy together... I clicked on it wondering and ... it's what it says on the tin.

@futurebird I'm waiting for the dalek and cyberman to pipe up, he's on this site xD
@moira ...So, this is how some synths do cyber....(dives for cover)
@GeoWend once you go mechanoid you never go, uh, backanoid?
@moira ...this leads us right into Deminoid territory...and thus, Monsterdon.
@moira ...or not. I think i got my movies mixed.
@moira I am, speaking medically, metaphorically, and morally, worse for having been exposed to this.
@tithonium Intereseting. [gets padd] How would you describe the medical symptoms, first?
@moira well my 18 month old nibling is mesmerized so that's something.
@moira That’s a strong contender for “last song of the night”….
@djwudi also "last song you'll ever hear" if you don't have the kind of high-power force field I had in my fully operational recording station
@moira
I made it about 37 seconds in.
Then somebody politely pointed out my brains were coming out my ears and gave me a hanky. A kindness.
@ohmu Fascinating! [gets padd] Can you describe these brain emissions in more detail? Please be detailed and accurate, it's for science.
@moira a new verse to the Most Unwanted Song just dropped. 10/10 no notes
@flyingsaceur We really thought it's what Danny Boy deserved xD
@moira somebody get me the number of Kompressor’s agent

@moira I clicked "Favorite" but it's a very, very nuanced favorite.

@moira

Threat +++ zero +++ zero +++ tuning +++ harmonics +++ stop.

@moira Thanks, I hate it
@tarotbird It's just what Danny Boy deserved ^_^
@moira So sorry Gerry Davis isn't alive to hear this (he created the Cybermen, way back). He was, incidentally, an audiophile who loved opera.

@moira .. This is amazing, I cannot.

Excuse me, I need to find my ears, they ran off in protest. (Well done).

@Thorne Extraordinary!

[gets padd]

Please, detail this physical experience for me. It's important. For science.

@moira ... It's kind of serene? Didn't hurt, either. I can see the cat's mouth move, but there is no sound?
I kind of need ears though, I have a thing later, so.. hang on, I need to check under the bed...
@Thorne [scribbles furiously, nodding]
@moira Nice, in a nightmarish convulsions sort of way. It is definitely a niche track. Well done!
@pcat thank you! and yes. it _really is_. xD
@moira This is absolutely terrible... I think you might have something that competes with William Shatner... Though, I think this is better. It feels intentionally bad, but I'm not sure that his stuff does.

@JigmeDatse it is intentionally a goddamn nightmare

just for the record

@moira Yes, that was clear, given the context, but even without the context I mean. Pretty sure that the terribleness being intentional comes across even just as a piece of art.

@JigmeDatse Remember Pacific Rim? The original, not the sequel?

This is how I shitpost when the intent is an actual song:

Kaiju Meat, by Crime and the Forces of Evil

track by Crime and the Forces of Evil

Crime and the Forces of Evil
@moira Not sure I've seen the original. :(
@JigmeDatse That's a shame, it's _amazing_. I walked out of the theatre in a daze wondering what the fuck I had just seen and how I could see it again as soon as possible.
@moira Reminds me of Cylon and Garfunkel. Keep up the good* work.
