Funk Turkey’s latest A.I.-scribed ditty is in the style of Iron Maiden. “Power Gravy” is really… something! Give it a spin below!
Video Description:
Using lyrics.rip to scrape the Genius Lyrics Database, I made a Markov Chain write Iron Maiden lyrics. This is the end result- “Power Gravy”.
All music/vocals performed, mixed, and mastered by me, in my kitchen, on a white Epiphone Flying V, a crappy mic, and an old copy of ProTools. All lyrics provided by Eddie (AKA lyrics.rip).
Guitars are the aforementioned Epiphone bounced partially left and right. Bass is a no-name bass run through amp emulation. Percussion is Superior Drummer 2. Vocals are…. hard. Bruce Dickinson is very hard to emulate/impersonate, so I just did the best I could and hope it’s not awful. That man has golden pipes. It sounds like a South Park parody, but then again, it IS a parody, so… uhhhh… don’t take it too seriously.
As always, extra special thanks to the geniuses behind lyrics.rip – @thesephist and @jajoosam
