I imagine it was Daniel Miller's influence at that time, but imho the
TR808 and SDSV combo used on A Broken Frame resulted in the definitive
electronic drum sound. That album, "From the Tea Rooms of Mars...", and
those beautiful SDS3 stabs in "Fade to Grey" are the main reasons I fell
in love with the Simmons drum sound.
