The thinking has been just how would one do this if one were malevolent enough to do this. Hint: I am.
The first part is to get that snarly voice and there's a Darth Vader voice in a vocal effects unit (likely most of the moderately-good ones) and those go from about $150 on up. Maybe I could find one on eBay.
By itself that's not enough as Vader and Cheney are the same person but they didn't sound the same. A bit of EQ would help somewhat but what could really do it is to go with some high-tech Darth Vader never had: auto-tune.
Imagine, if you will, Darth Vader singing auto-tuned hip hop. Feel the power. Feel the love.
Auto-tune has got expensive lately as the producers use it on average singers to make them artificial Streisands who can't do their own sets live. That's not the kind of auto-tune I want as "Evergreen" probably doesn't need Darth Vader or Dick Cheney either, for that matter. Bring back Ashcroft, right. He thought he was some kind of songbird. Kee-rist. People must have cringed when he would show up at wedding receptions as he would always want to sing with the band.
The basic auto-tune was just a software plugin but that requires some audio recording capability which is impossible at the moment plus it requires about $100 US which is also impossible so there shouldn't be any greater fear of this actually happening unless I'm malevolent to starve for it. Hint: I'm not.
It's a waste of whatever minimal talent I may possess even if it would be funny but, wtf, I've got six months until they put me on Medicare and they'll deduct the cost of it from Social Security. At that point I'm a dependent and I'll be paws up, wheels in the air. There's no possible way to afford it. What that says mostly to me is sell everything and escape, all based on the original premise that you've got to croak somewhere so it might as well be someplace cool and America won't have another shot at cool for decades. Maybe this is just stir crazy from living in an open carry death state but that's exactly how they do and I submit living with these lunatics would drive anyone insane.
I'm not trying to be funny in what I write but rather I try to be vicious because the comedy, dark as it may be, is that I will be attacked for being vicious by the same people who do nothing about those who really are. It's really quite funny, isn't it.
