Conlang Vocal cover of "Dirty" by @MARINATHEKATS for the #LEWITTMusicChallenge, performed by Psamathes. Recording for this challenge was so much fun! I wanted to contribute with my vocals, and to do something creative I decided to not only re-harmonize the backing vocals, but also re-write the lyrics in my made-up language, jokingly called "Psamathese". It was cool to adapt it from its usual celtic/fantasy setting to a neo swing song. While it has no direct translation, as it's focused on phonetics, sounds, and individual listeners' interpretations, I did try to keep it close to the original lyrics context, with the help of vocal interpretation mostly. The solo is a one-take improvisation, and there are also a few additions that are definitely more "neo" than "swing" (such as the growls and whispers). Huge thanks to Marina & The Kats and Lewitt for letting us experiment with their beautiful track!
