Flashes Mashes Smashes - {disquiet0290} by Richard Fair

It's been a while since I've participated in the Disquiet Junto Project, so please forgive my absence.
Back this week with something a little different. I was curious to see how the text-to-speech software would cope with none-words. I played around with a few ideas and then settled for something Dada-ish.
I tried four different language options - English, French, German and Japanese. The first three gave excellent result, but the Japanese version just didn't sound right so I rejected that one.
Moving the tracks into Ableton Live I extracted melodies and harmonies from the recordings and created an ambient backdrop.
Each filtered recording is played twice during the piece, but you may struggle to hear them first time round as the fist play is very quiet.
I'm rather pleased with the results and plan on experimenting further with the technique.
Hopefully it's not too off-piest!

NB
Thought I'd add the text that the text-to-speech was given:

orcelain elashes
ungoola blachmarch
