I'm corresponding with this guy.. really impressed.

I have the same moogerfoogers he has.. essentially, i'm just missing a controller like his Roland HPD-15. It's expensive.. but i think i might be good with a very funtional-yet-easy-to-use-for-a-non-percussionist drum machine.. but generally i am allergic to beats.. & ESPECIALLY allergic to making glitch electronic music.. why? because there're way too many others who do it better.. plus, it doesn't turn me on really.

i want to be able to create trajectories ... then modify/steer/obliterate/bloom with either my moogerfoogers (w/various expression variations--pedals, photo-cells, chroma-cells??? hue-cells?? accelerometers etc.. etc..).... And perhaps finally utilize my Frostwave FAT Controller as analog sequencer.. But man... does it ever end?? i mean the gear-lust! i know the answer is no.. but i still have hope i can make use of what i have to connect the dots now...

angst!!! '-)

:omg:
i piddled!!! somebody get a mop!!

Me too, loves percussions, but hates beats.
That thing looks justifiable for purchase, it's not just some random piece of tasty gear, it's an instrument.
I think I've seen Adrian Belew use it?

But... Mew:
