Yes.  Think Analogue Bubblebath 3.5.  Tom wears his AFX influence on his
sleeve.  The cover gives the impression this was culled from ol 4-track
recordings, and it's nowhere near as polished as his later works, so I'm
pretty sure they're old tracks.  Lots of fucked up acid.  Nothing
deep-feeling like Port Rhombus, but I find it a lot of fun.  There's one
track with this incredibly distorted sound which we've determined could be
nothing else than the incredibly lame Whistle sound off the TR-727, tweaked
_almost_ to the point of unrecognisability.  It's probably the only cool
thing that's ever been done with that sound.  This is one album I'll never,
EVER be able to play when my wife's in the car.
