Set The Wayback Machine To 1979

"I was going through some old cassettes when I ran across this: it's a demo I made while I was working at Guitar Center in LA in 1979. My co-worker Jackson Howe and I hooked together every piece of gear we had in stock that could be interfaced. Mind you, this was way before MIDI, we're talking control voltage and gates, all analog.

We hooked together four Arp sequencers to drive approximately 14 or 15 synths."

    Great track, great story, love that round buzzy lead sound, AND the lucky git got to contribute to "Secret Life Of Plants." Too bad the track isn't downloadable, though. :-(
