  I've spent the last two days putting together eleven songs using my room-
mate's casio keyboard's drum capability (limited, but useful), my portable
CD player, the Amiga, the Mimetics sampler, ans my other roommate's
four-track recorder (we are obviously a well-matched set of people). Is
it professional? No. But the sound quality? Oh Man!! CD straight to the
sampler! And that's what I love - the power of a mini-Fairlight for,
say...maybe two grand. And I would have bought the Amiga and the CD
player anyway. It's 60% icing on the cake anyway!!!

"You will be required to do wrong no matter where you go. It is the basic
condition of life, to be required to violate your own identity. At some time,
every creature that lives must do so. It is the ultimate shadow, the defeat
of creation; this is the curse at work, the curse that feeds on all life.
Everywhere in the universe."
