i don't know why i've taken so long in subscribing to this list, but 
here i am.  i lookforward to your messages and meeting some new people ( 
i know some of you in other contexts...).

and now, for the aspiring musicologists amongst us (or just plain 
wannabes, like me), i recently found something very interesting in a 
used bin: 'prime numbers', by other music.  if there's a nominal 
connection between this and the store in nyc, i dunno.  but it's quite 
intriguing - no sequencing, just an ensemble of percussionists playing 
justly-tuned (their octave has 14 notes; it strikes me as very similar 
to one isaac newton devised) gamelan-like instruments.  it sounds really 
crazy.  it came out in 1980 - proto-idm?  this could be on mego or skam.  
ring any bells for anyone here?

                                      yours,
                                      niall.
