Re: [microsound] our first .microsound poll



Hi, 

 I was aware of Matthews and music directly influenced or derived from his
work at an early age. I remember listening to electronic soundblurbs on the
radio at the barbershop when I was 8 years old.

 I didn't like them . If anything it made me steer away from electronically
generated sound for quite some time.
