I asked to robots to help me write a song in the style of Tom Waits. Riding on a train to the edge of town Where the night has just begun People on the street with nowhere to go Living hard and having fun Everywhere I go there’s a song…

I got tired of playing by the rules. (The album concept was using only portable instruments which I could carry in one trip.) This track uses every functional piece of gear I own at least once. In no particular order . . . TR-606, TB-303…

A Capella. I'm not doing Tibetan throat-singing but due to some happy accident it sounds as if I am in parts.

An encounter between a little astrodroid and a little insect. Monotron, junk percussion, DW-6000, and MT-32 (I think).

A nine-minute meditation piece. Gear: Roland JX-3P, Korg Monotron, acoustic guitar, soprano & alto recorders, bamboo flute, and junk percussion samples.

Listen carefully. It really isn't the same pattern over and over and over. Seriously. Gear: MT-32, junk percussion samples.
