notes
'Crapage' (1993): The album's opener, a distorted acid-adjacent bass line punctuated by sharp sample stabs. Short percussive synth stabs punctuating the arrangement, built on a harder-driven acid-adjacent bass sequence pushed through analog distortion, with Emax/Akai sample stabs -- the more aggressive electro-industrial direction of the 1993 Epic albums. Confidence is inferred from Front 242's documented studio setup for this record, not a measured patch capture.
