Larry Lewis did a cassette release back here in 1984 called African Bypass. It mixed tb-303, tr-606 and other things including his electric mandolin all on a 4 track cassette studio in Vic West. Later he went onto be the dj at fernwood spinning dub. Recently we found his video from back in the day. Last week I edited and chopped it up to get it to fit on youtube. Have a look at the world before midi and before techno. All three episodes are here: http://www.youtube.com/user/twoshedtunes - Mon, 30 Jun 2008 8:40pm

That's really cool. At the beginning with just the drum machine, it reminded me of Idioteque. I was a bit skeptical but it sounded very trippy at the end. I like all the sounds he uses. I can't remember anyone using a door bell in a song as an instrument. - Mon, 30 Jun 2008 9:54pm

Thanks for all the info. I found the Larry Lewis cassette "African By-Pass" the other day at a thrift store.
It's got so much going on. It's like a jazz, electronic and highlife album all in one - Fri, 21 Mar 2014 1:08am Edited: Fri, 21 Mar 2014 1:19am
