This is the classic patch "Digital Native Dance" that is used specifically on "Devo - Agitated" but is really all over the place on the album. Specially mode 6 on the d-50 is for PCM samples, an upgrade from the Fairlight. That's why those samples rarely show up in the later music. I don't think they found a way to take them from the stock fairlight library and put it into the D-50. Mark + the others I think! found a way to load their own samples into the D-50, sample rates were an issue, pre WAV/MP3 Wildwest... and your sound would either be squeeky or LONG. Will have to ask.... The d-50 was really the power house of those later albums.

Hello everyone,

Butterknivez is a very talented artsy spud who is known to us as that beautiful mutant that makes gorgeous fan art of Devo. They are currently competing to win $25,000 under the peoples artist foundation to which they are going to use to pay for a scholarship with a great school. Which I am only just learning is connected to Johnny Depp (quite cool). If all the spudz out there could please vote for her, that would be so amazing! They really deserve it. So please, help a young spud get their education!
