thanks to that post I’m now playing all my hozier lps at 45rpm and some of the songs gain new dimensions when you can imagine Dolly in them
#i think a large part of why it works is the accents#like obviously the vocal ranges and orchestrations have to make sense#but it’s not just ‘hozier sped up sounds like a female singer’ it’s specifically dolly#and I think that’s because to my Standard American ear#Hozier’s Irish accent when singing and Dolly’s Tennessee accent when singing sound like reflections of each other#the whole ‘US southern drawl is just slowed down Queen’s English’ thing#US north-Southern accent when mellowed by singing and southeast Irish accent mellowed by singing are not far off#tree.txt
