The DSI Temspest, a 6 voices analog//digital drummachine.  An animal of its own kind, after 8 years using this superb machine, I 've become obsessed with its powerful, primitive sound, and its intuitive interface. 
Locust Seasons is a live performance, using only 2  pattern of 4 bars each one,  aprox. 14 seconds of music. 
This track was composed spontaneously, using those 14 seconds and interacting with the instrument to shape the track in realtime.
