So I had a dream that Kaito and Big Al were an old gay married couple in a sitcom...

💎💎💎💎

Lyrics:
(Deet deet deet dee-deet dee-deet deet diddy)

I don't know what to say
about the feelings that
I have when I'm with you.
We've been together since
as long as I remember...
What am I to do?

Ever since I met you,
my life has been a spinning wheel
going around.
Just like old treasure,
it feels like what has once been lost
has now been found!

I wish I could remember
how it got this way,
but I think it was a bit too lonely.
No, I'd rather be your friend turned lover
than to have nobody at all.

(Deet deet deet dee-deet dee-deet deet diddy)
(😂 It sounds like you're saying "dicks"!)
(😠 Okay, you know what? How about YOU sing the rhythm and I'LL sing lead.)
(😏 All right, I can certainly sing it better than you!)
(🙄 Go on then.)

(Bum bum bum ba-bum ba-bum bum badda)
(😏 You're singing "bum"? 😤 Okay, be the mature one; I'll just start singing, then.)

For all the times we've fought,
I can't recall a single time
that we were cruel.
With all our troubles since,
we've cut through thick and thin
just like we're s'posed to do.

To be so different,
people must think that we were
just like night and day;
and yet like magic,
we come together
in the most peculiar way.

I wouldn't have it any
other way than this,
even if you sing it rather poorly.
(😱 WHAT?!)
No, I'd rather be your friend turned lover
than to have nobody at all.

And you give it your all.

Have nobody at all~❤️

Friends Turned Lovers

Diddle-dee-dum, diddle-dee-dum, diddle-dee-dum, OOO-WEE-OOO!!

My memories of seeing a gif of that scatting before ever hearing the theme proper have stuck in my mind. Now I can't unsing the theme song this way. Now I've made all my current Vocaloid voicebanks sing them in this way.

Enjoy!

Doctor Who Theme (VOCALOID Cover)

Doctor Who - VOCALOID A Cappella

An ode to those solar dancers you find on office cubicles, car dashes, and just about everywhere else!

Flowers and Cats

Something that just came to mind as my birthday began. I don't really know if it's a reflection of some existential mood as another year dawns on me, or if I just like to hear Vocaloids sing melancholy songs together.

[Song Idea] Wolts [Vocaloid]

Prima and Tonio need more love, but like heck if I'm going to write a whole original opera for them. Also the Frankensteins because why the heck not?

[Song Idea] You Will Never Find Me [VOCALOID]

Based on Discord shenanigans with @icouldflyaway-fly-away. You don't ask for renders from me unless you're prepared for a little silliness if things don't go so swell.

[VOCALOID cover] AL-oha'Oe

My Big Al Original for the BIG FestivAL, a celebration of the 10th Anniversary of the biggest, bassiest Vocaloid that ever monster-mashed his way into the world of singing synthesizers.

Because of the sheer length of this track, I'd rather not get into detail about the lyrics here.

Extra special thanks to @guitarheropianozero for helping me learn some mixing tricks and mastering this track to 😙👌 near-perfection!

[BIG FestivAL Original] Neverending Rain/Reign

"Big Time" was originally written by Peter Gabriel and produced by Daniel Lanois, released on Gabriel's fifth studio album "So" on the 19th of May, 1986, by Charisma Records, copyright to BMI and Peter Gabriel Ltd. Please respect the artists by streaming and purchasing the original song on reputable music websites such as Spotify and Amazon Music.

At any rate, if SoundCloud decides this "for fun, not profit" project is inappropriate for their site for not giving the record labels enough money, I'll eat my computer.

Besides issues of copyright, I can't believe nobody else has ever thought of the idea before. I mean, it seems obvious now, doesn't it? He fits this song like a glove.

Bulging BIG BIG BIG Thanks to @guitarheropianozero for mixing and mastering this track for me while I was struggling on other projects for the BIG FestivAL, such as the art zine project which you see now as the album art. You can find the full version on DeviantArt → http://fav.me/ddmdl1q

[BIG FestivAL Cover] Big Time

On this episode of Big Al Butchers the Classics, Al takes on the classic OSTER Project song, "tête-à-tête"...

This is actually based on an inside joke with one of my gaming friends, since an instrumental version of this song features in a DOOM mod they frequent. Let's see how they like the song with this big frick instead of squeaky Rin...

Original Song/Instrumental: OSTER Project

Bad(?) Mix and Master: @cyberneticcupcake

tête-à-tête

[VOCALOID Cover] You and Big Al on a discreet tête-à-tête

Ever since I discovered this applet, I knew I had to do SOMETHING with it, and here's that SOMETHING. >:3

(Illustrator is credited as "BigAlCupcake" because I messed up...)

Mix and master might be a bit OOF on this one just because Big Al's bass and cutesy instrumentals don't mix that well, but BY GUM, I'll keep trying!

Original Song/Instrumental:  daniwell
UST: みんとjewel pot (yt:FCFctJCbWdA) (nn:sm36789100) (converted to VSQx by @cyberneticcupcake through UtaFormatix 2.1)
Tuning (that I'm actually kinda proud of this time!), Mix, and Master: @cyberneticcupcake

Wonder of Wonder

[Big Al] Wonder of Wonder [VOCALOID Cover]

A.K.A. PowerFX, but an A.I. attempts to continue the song...

Actually, that's not quite true, since I'm actually taking several such "continuations" generated by the @openai_audio's Jukebox neural net, and mixing them with AI-generated stems from https://splitter.ai, along with a few other random samples, but people love a musical robot. You can hear the raw attempts here, including plenty of outtakes that didn't make it: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1C9OHnO2xMt4Vj1cnihx91kN0Rvmzd4JG?usp=sharing

There's an extended period of instrumental that I intended for additional lyrics (generated through GPT-3 in A.I. Dungeon, no less!), but it was already stressful enough to get good samples out of the demo that weren't too OUT THERE or too gibberishy.

Keep an ear out for cameos from the PowerFX Vocaloids, including the modern incarnation of the birthday boy himself, Big Al. Happy 11th Anniversary, big guy; hope this isn't too strange for you!
