Yeah, I've heard about this, but not actually got a copy yet.

Source are brilliant. Kunstoff and Reagenz are superb, and I've just got the
Redagain P album, which sounds excellent so far...

One album which sounds *very* interesting is 'Rhythmicon' by John Came, which
is out in the UK on Mute. It's a set of recordings using the Rhythmicon machine,
which was developed at the same time as the Theremin. It generates electronic
rhythms based on pitched sound input, and produces some amazing music. I've not
actually heard the album myself, but a friend of mine recommends it highly...
see ya
