Dewanatron's Swarmatron Featured in The New Yorker

Full article here.

"You may have heard it, if not of it: Trent Reznor made prominent use of one on the soundtrack of 'The Social Network,' the Facebook film. The DVD, out this week, includes a bonus segment in which Reznor talks about the Swarmatron’s 'beehive-ish sound.' The sound of eight voices straining toward but not quite achieving a unity of pitch, the dissonance stretching like taffy, seems perfectly suited to these attenuated times."
