I may be wrong here, but in the Mix's Autobahn where they the voice comes over the car radio and the tone is electronically altered throughout that segment ("The fun on the Autobahn" - sorry, my Deutch isn't good), isn't that one of the first recorded songs with that effect? A few years later, Cher had her big comeback song (Do You Believe in Love) using that effect. Now it seems like every hip-hop song here in the States uses that effect. Maybe KW was there first. Any comments?
I dont think we are talking about the same effect technically speaking. They may sound similar, but AFAIK the Autbahn vocals are computerized, i.e. the sound comes from a computer, while Cher and her followers took a real human voice and processed it electronically. Glenn
