There's an impressive kitlist in Speedy J homepage:
http://www.speedyj.com/
I have the record somewhere, haven't really listened to it many times,
but from what I remember I think he put his percussions thru _too_ many
distortion pedals (my ears!!! my ears!!!).
I couldn't recognize any distortion pedals in the kitlist (boss maybe?)
so one possibility is that he used eg. his TL audio stuff by
overdriving them... Or any device that has audio in & out!!!
Or maybe those digital processors (gimme DSP4000 anytime!) have some
funky distortion algorithms.
