I've heard it for example in Aphex Twin - Girl Boy song, and some µ-Ziq. It's a kind of highly cut up, apid, sometimes somewhat tonal skittering drum programming that sounds like it would be unbelievably slow to put together in a sequencer. I get the sense think such a distinct sound is associated with certain equipment or techique, anyone have any ideas? tag:ask.metafilter.com,2004:site.7807 Tue, 08 Jun 2004 17:13:35 -0800 aphextwins idm music u-ziq abcde
