I was expecting HIGH voltages
- like 2.5 kV.
But this was probably funnier than instana-fried PCBs.

Very good, but it peaked too early for me
The penguins were by far the best IMO.
Mind you, I was doing this back in the 70's with a talking skull - it was one of the toys that had an actual record with grooves, so as you applied more volts the speed and pitch got higher and higher. Brill.

Going the other way
and undervolting/current limiting the supply to electronic musical instruments/audio toys can have fun results.

You are so right
Some of my kids' toys had me in tears when they had almost flat batteries - some sounded like they'd been possessed!

this kind of reminds of a real world version of a thing my mate Gaz sends me every now and again to cheer me up - a video of a Joy Division tribute band sped up to double speed. Absolutely the same vibe
