observe the difference:
chain reaction record -> thump tss thump tss thump tss thump tss thump
tss thump tss thump tss weeeeaaaaoooowwwwwww thump tss thump tss thump
tss thump tss
pole record -> pop click pop click pop click pop click pop click pop
click pop click pop click pop click weeeeaaaaoooowwwwwww pop click pop
click pop click pop click pop click
& as a means of comparison:
autechre record -> crunch clack bang blip kank crunch-a-ching bang klank
crunch blip klang tcheecka boom ding bump crunch crunch bloop blip
funkstörung record -> crunch clack bang blip kank crunch-a-ching bang
klank crunch blip klang tcheecka boom ding bump crunch crunch bloop blip
