"I write in moments, in disparate sound blocks, so I find it convenient to store these events on filing cards so they can be sorted and ordered with minimum effort. Pacing is essential."

The Ludovico Technique-Part 1: Adventures in Synapse Fluoridation.
The year was 1997, Seven Mary Three was decaying into Three Doors Down, music was choking to death like a baby sucking CS gas during an FBI raid and something had to give. Whilst some laudable acts like The Orb were busy trying to take electronica to new and expansive heights, other artists were heading speedily the other way... The Ludovico Technique burst on to the scene (the old MP3.com) with it's first (failed) experiment in "Synapse Fluoridation". Armed with only an over-sized Casio knock off purchased from the Home Shopping Network (the Kawaii Superboard) and a tape recorder, the Technique tried to forge a brave new musical legacy. It failed miserably, but the end result is a vaguely original form of lo-fi electronica that avoids being entirely sucked into the ruts of 4x4 dance predictability, spacey new-agey g00 gah, or arcade consolish beepy-boop melodies (yet maintains elements of all three).
