Here's another live recording straight from mixer with my sequencer firing off my synths. I did edit out a middle part, though. Also, added a bit of compression and reverb in Ableton. I recorded a 4 chord progression into the Pyramid sequencer and then added a randomizer to every note (for better or worse!). Now I’ll get new variations for each chord sent out to all my synths. Also, I locked it to a scale so it will stay in key (edit not certain everything stayed in key actually). Some of the sounds reminded me of a fax machine, hence the name.

There's something cold and mechanical about this, but in an awesome way.  I could see it being good music for working at a factory or something.  I can hear some of those fax machine sounds in there, too.

yes, the song has a mechanical spirit, but the synth sounding warm an pleasing. The rhythm is like an oldschool beatbox. Like it very much.

the beat is reminiscent of early bjork! (at least for me...)
