Hot Sugar's production techniques are a little unconventional in that he uses found sounds as the sonic source for most of the elements in his tracks, a technique he calls 'associative music'. These sounds can vary from the static on an analogue TV — sculpted in various ways to create an number of different instruments — to samples from an impressive collection of musical toys and random noise-making devices that Nick keeps within arms reach when making music. It was because of this that we decided to ask Hot Sugar to dig into the MiniNova's sound-processing and synthesis capabilities to see what it can do.
