Nothing. You should be making something instead of sitting around
idly pitching spitballs, telling the rest of us what we should and
should not find interesting, deciding what language we're supposed
to use, and wondering what to pirate next.

Wow. This aggro stuff is *fun,* innit?
<set sarcasm=0;>
On a more serious note, try the Antje Greie-Fuchs Head Slash
Bauch on Orthlorng Musork, Carl Stone/Tetsu Inoue on c74,
AMM's FINE on Matchless (old enough to be your dads, they
are), the interesting live trio-reworks by soloists after the fact
on 12K called After from Richard Chartier, Taylor Deupree
and Kim Cascone. Some of them may be unconservative
enough even for really cool guys.

P.S. I'll stake a round on the O'Rourke being his usual
ongoing huge MSP patch that dates from before his
Sonic Youth days, honed to a frightening polish and
sporting whole new wings and facades.
