"Techno Chicken" is the ultimate culmination of the mash-up and auto-tune cultures. We've taken something pure and natural (bird sounds) and transmogrified it into a glossy, produced techno track complete with a video and neon lights. It's wonderful. The page itself is nothing all that special, essentially a background for the YouTube video, but the red and blue on black aesthetic really does invoke that rave feeling. Once the clucking begins, you'll be transfixed by the power of this rhythmic fowl. It has a studio sheen to it that makes you do a double-take before you realize that a chicken is providing the melody. A true and cutting commentary on the current popular music scene. Check it.
