His new album, 'Death of a Typographer' is out and it's a powerful, minimal groover. I was wondering what he's using to sequence and synthesize his percussion. Anyone have any clue?
Thanks,
Matt

listened to the album the other day, wasnt mad about it, doesnt seem to be doing anything special percusion wise to suggest he is using anything to different from others.

you could achieve it with a standard cubase/logic/ableton setup.

:shock:

I just googled that and I can't seem to wrap my head around it .
What does it do exactly, and why use something like that over more traditional music production software? And is there any reason to learn how to use it from scratch?

I've heard Nicolai uses it and I've seen him pictured with a laptop running it and an EMS Synthi A which he seemed to be sampling. I was just curious what those guys use, really. I've assumed Max/MSP but I can't find much to back it up.
