Thanks for all the responses! I'll check out soundforge

I'd probably say for the vocals he just edited the audio manually since he uses soundforge.
Not sure if he "just uses paul stretch". Sure, he might be sampling some orchestral works, but I think VERY selectively, and never a whole song like in that one paul stretch joke thread a bit ago. I don't know, I think his music is much more complex than how you put it. His drum loops never seem to... well... actually loop! Theres always something different.

What difference does that make? I'm too far away from the production pc to try.
It goes all slushy and ghostly, especially if there's reverb / delay already on the vocal.
not necessarily what the OP wanted but it sounds great imo.
and definitely burial-ish, i don't think he's very precious about audio source quality...
Quality of audio is over rated. Thinks sound good because of inadequacies and faults.

I've heard some amazing songs that would be ruined if they were high quality. Use some low sample rate drums and other samples.

It gives it a human touch. Completely clean mixes are too clinical.

I'd probably say for the vocals he just edited the audio manually since he uses soundforge.
I thought paul stretch was only released 2 years ago? I remeber reading an interview with him in compuer music.
