pop music, gregorian style…
the script kiddie left us some cool/interesting/unusual mp3s!
there was some cool christmas stuff to augment my holiday collection. and a wide range of german tunes - everything from techno to more traditional songs.
but the best find was “masters of chant III” - a collection of pop songs sung in gregorian chant. well, it’s mostly chant, there is instrument accompanyment by keyboards and drum machines, maybe a real guitar too.
some of the more outrageous songs are depeche mode’s blasphemous rumors, new order’s blue monday, chris issac’s wicked game and yaz’s only you.
the strange thing is that as strange as it sounds, i still like it! it’s still listenable! but boy did i have a good laugh at first listen! ![]()
