Sound
The sound of Human Voice is less lyrical and vocal than his past albums, with emphasis on the warping of human voices and use of synths instead of acoustic arrangements. The first vocalized synth that appears in the album happens to be that of the Casio SK-1 preset that shares the name with the album.
