In an interview, RDJ said that the early ambient and Polygon Window material is all slightly tweaked Roland drum machine stuff ie. 606, 808, etc. But then again (strangely enough, in the same interview) he also said that when he uses some drum sounds, he then deletes them from the disk so that he won't want to use them again.
