Man vs. Machine

Hi, 

I would like to share my first choir piece KONE (Machine) that was performed a few days ago. But actually it's a piece for choir and tracker software (Renoise). Check it out! http://areena.yle.fi/tv/1885763 

Lyrics translation: 

*** 
Waking up - warming up - ready. 
A robot works, a machine produces, it doesn't get tired, it never stops. 
It's mechanic and totally different - a soul of a machine. 
It will free us - without our permission. 

Solo: It paints, it sings, it's made by us, to replace us. 
Choir: Slowing down, stopping - 
Solo: A man should not - 
Choir: sing like a machine. 

A robot works, a machine produces, it doesn't get tired, it never stops. Machine sings.
