As for my "own", I really don't get that much out of the Freeform releases.  Mr. Pyke
uses interesting sounds, but they don't really hang together very well IMO.  Some
artists can make music out of strange sounds but Freeform just sounds like a
collection of noises to me.  <shrug>

"Dark Start" from the ELpH vs. Coil LP I assume.  Speaking of making music out of
alien sounds...
