I love how in those moments they're not supposed to be singing lyrics, the Moonbase Alpha astronaut sings along with the song, making it feel different than usual mashups. But it's a very welcome difference.

[@richyofthevillagers]

Yeah that's exactly what I was thinking! The bit of freedom DECTalk has in this, where it adds in lyrical improvisation really honestly makes it both unique and, in my opinion, fits the character of the voice.

[@CalmestRaccoon]

@@richyofthevillagers I know, right? This mash-up got way better just for that small change.

[@nima266]

3:54 I wasn't expecting this moonbase astronaut to steal the show and put so much emotion into into this bit. Wow!

[@UniByEriX]

My head isn't sure wether I should enjoy this or if I should feel uncomfortable by the fact that my ears hear two different things, but this truly is the most experience ever.

[@SilverRose45]

i have cross feed so i don't hear the separation

[@sleazysoldier6199]

if i had to give an explanation...its probably because one voice is on one side, while the other is on the other. don't know if you could hear it without headphones, but it definitely is an interesting experience that I cant say i've heard before...sure i've heard directional songs before...The Neath, a number of infected mushrooms songs, Lights, Camera, Action!. all of them have directional notes and sounds, but i've honestly never experienced dual directional music. where in one ear you can hear one set of lyrics, while in the other you can hear the other set.

Hey thanks for that man but credit really goes to the original creators…they deserve all the cool credits

[@TheWolfie234]

I know its supposed to be funny but I love robotic voices. Moonbase alpha is based on the DECTalk which was one of the earliest vocal synthesizers developed in the 80s. I love researching older speech synthesizers. This is a great way to hear how our technology has developed in recent years compared to the past. And the DECTalk still sounds so good too!

[@flamingdog9207]

Hell, I prefer the older synthesis tech such as DECTalk over the newer emerging AI-based text to speech.

[@Catterjeeo]

​​@@flamingdog9207There is a certain style to it That I love. The newer Ai voices are designed to imitate so they have no such style.

[@Ambipie]

It's the humanity in the imperfections of manmade robots. It sings like a human because it talks like a human voice shut inside a computer. ​@@flamingdog9207

[@dunno6161]

This is why I will always side that synthesized voice programs are equally viable for music as actual singing. And why i go insane when people say that the moonbase and vocaloid synth voices are "simple".

[@Dingghis_Khaan]

Synthesized voices are just like any other kind of synthesized instrument, really. They require a considerable amount of technical musical knowledge, which is just as valid as the skills needed for their analog counterparts.

[@gatr2897]

Lagtrain and Will Stetsons cover of it were #1 and #3 on my Spotify Wrapped last year, and the Moonbase Alpha cover of it was #2 on my 2022 Recap on KZbin. Basically my ears are blessed by this let's gooooo

[@a.fernando4319]

"A young astronaut lies inside her ship, a ship that has failed her, trapped in infinity, an engine, a fault, a mistake, left her in the starry wilderness, the only voice apart from herself is a IA that served as a messenger between the earth and her, but that contact has been lost, 2 voices alone, both with a unique emptiness, the young star traveler can do nothing but wait for the end, speaking to a voice that does not he understands it, with time the other voice begins to respond, not just repeat, he begins to speak, is there something there, a conscience?, or just a desire?, soon an idea, a method of returning, the plan is put into action , a shot, just one, enough force to return to earth, all the resources are put into action by a single shot, the fuel, the air, the spark, a silence is replaced by a bang, a shot, an impulse that it becomes an immesion and soon in a free fall, splash, the water retents everything, the 2 voices return home"

[@DropToast]

Give this man a budget of a Hollywood movie

[@brenon45]

Honestly the Moonbase Alpha voicing manipulate for this gives the song an interesting new way it sounds... like a remix but different... like how people remix songs with wave, or new rythems, or trance and bass mixs. It's very nice.

[@imthecoolestguyalive]

Picturing this as a surreal Yume Nikki, Dreaming Mary, or OMORI-style story, where a character dives into the world of dreams, and meets a funky little stranger, and the two of them go on adventures together, untangling the meaning of these dreams, offering their own interpretations of what they're seeing, and trying to figure out which one of them is the real dreamer, and who's a construct of the dreamer. I dunno, I just like the mental image of a completely normal-looking kid, and a person who doesn't really _look_ like a human, be they an astronaut, a robot, or whatever hanging out in wacky environments. It's always been one of my favourite dynamics. And I like to imagine these two as this exact kind of duo. You can read it as a child-parent kinda deal, or just as a friendly one, it's just always cute to me. Be it a film, a show, or a game, I think it would be a banger. I'm mostly picturing something like a Yume Nikki-like game but with dialogue, but it doesn't really matter to me, because I'm actually attached to these characters already. Thanks, OP, I'm gonna go get out my drawing tablet, and try drawing something for once!

[@erfanhakimi8348]

Get cooking, buddy, hope it's good.

[@starcasm3]

i was recently fixated on moonbase alpha and now im fixated on inabakumori so this is literally perfect lol

[@Omio9999]

I did not realize I needed this. I have listened to each one separately multiple times before this instance. This is absolutely the pinnacle of the East and West coming together on *something.* The same voice that Steven Hawking used with his assistive technology, paired with the rather unique perspectives borne from Japan's culture, but not in such a way as to *intrude,* but to nod to each other in perfect sync. If anyone calls this cursed, *they clearly are new to the internet.* This is BLESSED.

[@Omio9999]

EDIT: Wow, I borked formatting. Oops. ^^;

[@YGNX]

It is cursed. Cursed as in the fact it should of come out a long time ago because not only is it amazing in concept, the song is a bomb! (.^ - ^.)

The song is already haunting, but maybe a little cathartic with how awesome the MV gives that human, but almost not feeling, but mixing the Moonbase cover just makes it go even further, is so disturbing but awesome listen.

... A young girl handles her umbrella in the constant rain of Nova Terra, the first colonized world. She is not human, but she desires so desperately to be so. She can blend in, if she tries. She hopes to travel back to Earth today- there is *something* important an acquaintance of hers has told her of. - The words reach her ears from a loudspeaker, broadcasted to, most likely, everyone in the NAU. Some districts of Earth have declined, which was almost distressing to the girl. Luckily, she got here just in time. *...into the stars?* What's the point, the girl thinks, of going there? But she realizes in an instant that the voice is synthesized, and in an instant that- This person is like her. But why use- ... ... ...DECtalk? Why not sound like a human? She remembers being left for dead. Somehow, not of use anymore. What he's proposing is just stagnation, she feels... But she keeps listening.

[@javaDB.1.0.V1]

this isn't the original TTS, but a port to UTAU. It could be almost as good on the original TTS, but the original was not very friendly and accessible, and still is not those things. If someone devoted made a DECtalk editor for the original TTS then I bet more people would use it.
