This is the first seed file in the visionary powerwords set.It is a spoken list of powerwords in English. I propose that all who are interested upload a file with the following spoken words: "welcome, peace, love, joy, hope, compassion, mystery, unity, equality, creativity, freedom, health, spirit, inspiration, release"The words should be spoken in precisely this order, and each should be separated by a brief silence. Each file should consist of one language only, but hopefully, we will accumulate a collection of these files in many different languages and voices. If possible, record at standard stereo quality 44MHz, 16bit. Let's hear the voices of the world join together in speaking these words of power and offer them freely to the creative designs of our planetary artists. For consistency, I encourage you to use the following tag words: powerwords, words, language, English, speech, spoken, natural

Good sample. I might use it.

I find it funny, though, listening to all these songs where people just search for the word "speech" and use every sample that pops up.....
