draeke Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 ..compiling a cd. not for release but to show what can be done with female vocals in trance / chill / dub / electro, whatever. there is this friend of mine who sings well and i want to make her sing or chant or something into electronic music, and i know some musicians with whom she could co operate, but i have to prepare a sort of "demo" to let her hear what people are doing around.. as she is pretty new to these genres. she knows pop / rock / house / dance stuff and can sing well but i would want her to try smth different. any suggestion in the wide range of electronic music is welcome.. i will start saying that i remember some chants into some talpa tracks, and into some chill from sunline records (like new zymosis) but my memory is leaking as my time is limited to compile this disc.. so any quick suggestion is welcome hope my post is clear Quote

draeke Posted February 4, 2009 Author Posted February 4, 2009 Shpongle well i placed anubis - invocation .. which is Simon and there is a beautiful voice, but i will think of one shpongle track that fits... but hey thanks for quick reply so far i thought of: talpa - the moon zymosis - needle gargoyles - spacebaby anubis - invocation Grassskirt - On my own and some off topic material like electro groups etc.. but i would want to put some others "goa/chill" alike tracks Quote
Tatsu Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 My favourite track ever with female voice is Sub6 - 7th Son (Ticon Remix). The original is great too but it's the Ticon remix that makes me lose my mind. Not only the voice acting is superb but also the music itself. Imho this track is a must if you want to show her how noice vocals can be. Another one of my favourites, even when it is more from the regular progressive/minimal side is Terry Grant feat. Jennifer Horne - I'll Kill you. Again the singing is absolutely mindblowing here. It what gives the whole track its sense if you know what I mean. Quote
Anoebis Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Dead Can Dance - Yulunga (yes, I did know a track with cool female vocals!) Quote
Malevol3nt Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Jes - Disconnect She might be familiar with Jes allready since Jes has that uber-famous hit Motorcycle - As the rush comes. Disconnect is sort of a mainstream vocal trance album, I like it since her voice is so Yum! Quote

psytones Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Um, Violet Vision - Your Voice ? Shpongle If I experience one more night tripped out listening to Michele Adamson's singing about this and that crap, I'm gonna puke my guts out. - No personal offence Michele. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZlZu5XLsL8 Quote
mephistopheles Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Irina Mikhailova (feat. Kaya Project for example) Noa Lemberski (Violet Vision) ... Quote
Malevol3nt Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZlZu5XLsL8 Omg that vid is so lame. Adding that name directly below Dali on my vocalists to avoid list. Quote
RTP Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Etnoscope has a female voice ... no text though, at least no real one check out their tracks Sunrise, King Size Rizzla and Qula. Also check out the great song Banco De Gaia - Obsidian! (thinking about it, the Banco tune she'll probably like more ... you should definitely give it a spin!) Quote

Rotwang Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 You should stick on some of the stuff Orbital did with Alison Goldfrapp, e.g. . Or this, featuring the voice of Kirsty Hawkshaw. Quote
mystical dragon Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Haze - Aes Dana beautiful voice........ Quote
karan129 Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Binah - Crescend Suns its Simon plus Michele if I remember correctly, can be found on the comp spiritual worlds and shamanic beats Royksoop - What else is there? its proggy house but nice My favourite female vocal is actually a sort of primal weird vocal sample from middle of The Nommos - Amma On Hibernation - Some Things Never Change, #5 has some vocals at the end rather jazzy.

draeke Posted February 10, 2009 Author Posted February 10, 2009 thanks for so many comments, i will have to compile another cd for her! about the younger brother track and other similars, these are lovely but i don't really need to make her listen tracks with voices heavily distorted, i need clean vocals as i would want her voice to be heard and not computer alike (even if melodious like in younger brother). again thanks for all the input Quote
fosku Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 My favourite track ever with female voice is Sub6 - 7th Son (Ticon Remix). The original is great too but it's the Ticon remix that makes me lose my mind. Not only the voice acting is superb but also the music itself. Imho this track is a must if you want to show her how noice vocals can be. :wub: May I also point out Holden & Thompson - Nothing (93 Returning Mix): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkPJX0TxZwI One of my alltime melodic trance favourites. And might be the finest and trippiest use of female vocals in electronic music. Quote
Bahamut Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 some rather obvious picks, originals or trance mixes Delerium - Silence Paul Oakenfold - Southern Sun Steve Roach - Opening the space Wordless chanting with endless reverb over processed didgeridoo. Amazing track and surely hippy enough! Quote
