musique concrete

[Michael Peters <mpeters@csi.com>]

for those people interested in the history of looping: my little looping 
history article on the website mentions musique concrete very briefly. A 
very 
nice extensive article about this topic can be found in the August issue 
of 
WIRE (not Wired).

One other thing I found in the same magazine is that there are tape loops 
on 
Herbie Hancock's 1973 album SEXTANT (reissued on Sony recently) - the 
loops 
contained sound generated by a device called Random Resonator which was 
developed by a certain Tom Oberheim ... anyone know this guy?
