Back in 1996 I had a short-lived industrial band with one of my friends. I did vocals through a delay pedal and a distortion pedal, my friend played a Korg M1, and the band was rounded out by a drum machine triggered by some OpCode Vision software. We never did much other than practice a lot, take pictures of ourselves trying to look like Skinny Puppy, and program songs on my friend's desktop computer.
I only have two boom box recordings of this band somewhere, but one of the songs I have no recordings of had the same lead part as this song. It periodically pops into my head, which I think is pretty weird considering we programmed the part by step entering 16th notes randomly into the computer and cutting out the notes we didn't like. I thought of it as sculpture, cutting away the pieces you don't want until a shape emerges.
