+ Splendid magazine dissects track 2 on the EP - Disastrato's on 
Disastrato's latest release:

"Desirez Rien (After a Rice Kick" is the real draw -- it's an actual new 
track from Disastrato himself. It's about half the previous track's length, 
but has far more intriguing (and coherent) ideas. As it opens, the sounds of 
heavy industry -- typewriters, chains, bars -- clang violently, then stop 
abruptly. A haunting passage follows: a choir repeats a depressive melody 
over the sound of heavy rain. A woman coughs and cries softly in the 
background, her choked sobs occasionally breaking through into the 
foreground of this disturbing, occasionally frightening composition. Try 
spinning it in the car while it's raining to get the full effect. Taken 
together, the two songs provide an interesting look into Disastrato's 
work.... it would make a perfect soundtrack to a David Lynch short film."

+ Thanks to all the KVR crew who have been giving this instrument a go. The 
consensus is that it makes amazing sounds at the cost of immense CPU 
drainage. Many artists are sampling it's output and using the resultant 
audio in their tracks :::: check out the thread ::::
