Yeah - Irdial got a collection of artists, moved them into isolated rooms
or something and told them to come up with some sequences on MarioPaint.
Its a neat idea - give everyone a basic set of sounds and a *basic*
sequencer, isolate them and see what they come up with. Irdial had an
advert in the NME which explained it if someone wants to re-print it here...
There might also be some information at the Irdial Web site. I think they
used some extra effects and things on the mixdown BTW.
