Top 6 Most ridiculous autotuned songs on the internet
Auto-tune is the newest weapon in the music producer’s arsenal, giving him or her the ability to do everything from subtly correcting slight pitch discrepancies in vocal tracks to creating wild and distinctive vocal effects. Not only that, but it gives bedroom remixers the ability to turn just about any audio input into a workable song. It’s that power that has led to the rise of the Auto-tuned remix phenomenon – whereby would-be DJs create remixes of just about anything you can imagine. The results are usually musical, sometimes ear-splitting, but nearly always hilarious.Here are the top six Auto-tuned clips out there right now, according to NetGuide:6.
