Sounds awesome if a bit distorted. The singing and the lyrics sound
vaguely Slavic (or Bobroish :D), what's with that?

Thanks for the comments guys.

@Chris- No pitch correction if that's what you mean. I sang along with 2032 in my ear though ;-) Just one of GarageBand's basic effects on my voice.

@Kalle- The lyrics are in Lojban, an extremely efficient constructed language:
http://www.lojban.org/
It puts some consonants together that we're not used to in english and uses a lot of pure vowels, which is probably why it sounds a little slavic.
I don't what sounding "Bobroish" would imply though =P

Doesn't he mean that Cameron Bobro lives in Slovenia?

I'm Slavic, know more Slavic languages, but lojban didn't sound too
much Slavic. Linguistics, and especially artificial languages are my
big hobby. Structure of Lojban words have nothing to do with Slavic
languages.

More to do with Chinese. Now the number of conlang/microtonal
crossover people goes to five at least!

I hate the sound of lojban and personally think the idea of
using phonemes by global popularity was dumb. But otherwise
it's a great conlang. -Carl
