Have a look as this guy recreates the vocals for Daft Punk's "Something About Us."

The VP9000 allows you to play a vocal or audio sample across all keys, changing pitch in real time. This was cutting edge back in the 90s. But surely the MPC could easily recreate this technology, allowing you to "elasticize" audio tracks. How about it Akai?

You can make a keygroup starting from an audio sample which will be pitched in all keys and that you will be able to play with pads or usb keyboard.
You can also make it with field recording samples, I made a keygroup starting from a bird sing and it becomes really interesting, you can make it sound like a crazy forest.
