I saw the word "digital" crop up a lot in this review, but actually Fergadis only used an old Yamaha synth (the FB01) and on old Kawai drum machine (the R-100), both made in the 80's, to make that music. I mean those are digital instruments, but it's not some DSP fest a la Devine/Autechre or anything. Makes me think of those reviews which talk about Panasonic's "digital debris" when their music is created with their custom built analog modules. http://www.i2.i-2000.com/~jeffrey/FB01.htm http://www.keyboardmuseum.org/ar/k/kawai/r100.html Just being a pain in the azz.
