I've left 3 groups that way- Jay@Teklab's early synth groups which
seemed to devolve in to knitting and gossip groups;
(much respect to Jay- they were good while they lasted); the Unimog
list (I enjoy off-road hardware) which was a 50/50 split between the
most backwoods redneck stereotypes America could offer, and the rest
trying to converse with them; and the Ducati list (I also enjoy
on-road hardware). Oh the Ducati list- I recall calling the list-owner
a Nazi at one point.. I bought a Ducati motorcycle for one reason: "I
could spend 15k on a baseline model Saturn, or get the Ferrari of
bikes".
The people on this list mostly thought their shit transformed in to
rain on the way down to vigorize God's green Earth like nothing seen
before.

Anyway, to create something remotely on-topic, I've been watching
Portlandia (which is hilarious) and I'm struck by the title theme.
It's an airy pad that as you can guess fills a background space-
almost identical to the Gorillaz Stylo sound-
It's been heard elsewhere and long before, but I'm a programmer and
the mechanics of the sound are unknown to me- anyone want to comment?
I want to say it's 3-4 "breath" style formants played simultaneously,
but I'm just a player-hater and I love my TX-81Z.
