That's a great example ! They do a very good job of striking the
balance between sequenced percussion and live instruments which is
quite a difficult balance to strike. I would have put more composition
of the percussion in but that's my stylee not Superdirt stylee. If you
listen to some the original german trance/techno on labels like
Harthouse they use a lot of subtle percussion composition, build ups,
break downs and so forth. I proved to myself in the 1990's that it was
possible to do this live using the software Rebirth. I never got back
to implementing this until recently (long story).
