Breathhmmalyser: Songs where the only vocal element is/are breaths or hums, etc

Either sampled or recorded, but strictly no discernable words (including made up words a la Cocteau Twins).

So far I can only think of Maurizio - "Eleye" and some track from the Matias Aguayo albu
that had sinister humming.

adrian klumpes - exhale

Kraftwerk, Atem

That remix of Kelis's "Trick Me" I think.

Holden remix I mean.

No, I meant Tiefschwarz remix. Holden did Britney's "Breathe on Me", that's what I was thinking of maybe.

what about the background music in akira when the childrens toys coalesce into toy-monsters and there's like this weird chanting thing going on in the background? i don't speak japanese so i don't know if they're singing discernable words or not.

also art of noise - moments in love

"Moments in Love" has a female voice singing "moments in love". Or at least some version of it has.

The version in your mind

I don't think there's any discernible words there, it's just chanting. And that chanting bit has been sampled in "Dirty" by Underworld (the original "Dirty", not the "Dirty Epic" version which appears on Dubnobasswithmyheadman), which also qualifies for this thread.

The version in your mind

No, there's definitely a vocal version, it's on the Daft compilation.

the version i remember has both - the vox "moments in love" and this rhythmic samples breathy sound that i suppose could also be a pan flute, but i always though it was a breathy "fairlight07 female - ah" or something

Ah, I know what sample you're talking about, but that doesn't sound like a human voice to me, merely a synth sound.

Kraftwerk, Atem

Is there anything on Tour de France Soundtracks that also fits this? Seems like the sort of record where there might be.

The gasps of breath from Tour De France, of course but then they start singing in French

Tiefschwarz mix of trick me does have a few Kelis vocals remaining - "This is it" "Trick me" as well as lots of gasps and breathing

Barbara Morgenstern and Robert Lippok - "Sommer"

Piano beats and humming. Very bucolic.

Sheila Chandra--"Speaking In Tongues."

Holden's Britney's 'Breathe on Me' is epic but does have one single line left intact, albeit stretched almost to breaking.

Ennio Morricone - Astratto 3 (it's on Crime & Dissonance)

Does Lil Louis "French Kiss" count? I reckon so

some Meredith Monk, yeah?

There are so many examples of this it's ridiculous:

the *entire* Dave Aju album "Wide Open" is techno in which the kit/drum sounds are only voice noises being sampled and chopped up (see "Roundabout")

tons of Bjork's "Medulla" album was made this way too

also:

Bodenstandig 3000

Tones on Tail "Slender Fungus"

and, er, not to egotrip but the Matmos track "The Purple Island" from the Quasi-Objects album.
