A friend of mine told me he saw an interview with OVAL on a french channel
(ARTE) in which they showed a piece of machinary which was basicaly a
modified CD that takes random parts of music and makes a massive REPEAT.
This is second hand info but I had the impression they make most of their
music in this manner.
Ofcourse if I had the pleasure of listening to their music I would have had
a better opinion. Also on the program were interviews with AFX,Atom
Heart,Deep Space Network (yuck!) and Alec Empire (Hurray!).
