Sounds like two drum machines fighting with each other __/\__

like the double browser mix idea...i was on a different train

I don't usually work with beats or drum machines - so I found this week's assignment a bit challenging. I played with the app for a while, to figure out what to do... recorded a few live performances and tried tweaking it to it's limits fast/slow/high&low pitches... But I really wanted to make a poly rhythmical piece, so I ended up oppening Firefox and Chrome each with the HTML505 drum machine, playing the same beat at the same tempo - 120...that happened not to be exactly the same tempo, so the rhythm goes from in sync slowly shifting to out of sync and then back into sync after a while.... quite lovely I think. 
The title is a homage to Steve Reich who composed a few pieces with a similar ideas...
