yes the pounding techno beat are gone and the next CD (this winter) will
feature accoustic guitar playing not looping but
I am still working on strange melodies sounds and processes (sounds more

If I had to choose my audience I'll surely prefer the closed eyes one than

my edp is sync OFF as the sequ retrigers continuously there is no need to
sync. I can even change tempo: if I go slower you may get into the loop
playin 1 and some before the next fires. if I go faster it just reads a
part of the loop time
