and I've been asked to use music that's "Squarepusher-esque" but i'd love to give some shine to a more current IDM (gag) artiste that's inna similar stylee, and would accurately reflect a person's addled, attention-deficient mindset so I can sell them some more fucking uneccessary drugs to alter their brain chemstry. suggestions much appreciated.

oh, and it can't be too 'scary": more spastic than anything else.

V/Vm? might fall into the "scary" category

i was messing around with one of their tracks, it was close, but a little too scary for the suits.

venitian snare maybe¿
prolly too scarry.

Maybe Hrvatski or Kid-606.

something from the static caravan or morr labels might be more appropriate if you're trying to keep down the scare factor.

Just go with Merzbow and watch those pills fly off the shelves.

Thing about using "Sign" is it would make being ADD seem better than being normal.

An adult ADD drug?

Are you people insane?

Son, burn all the material you have. Take your tapes, discs, whatever, get some "gas", go find a bin in the street and burn all that shit.

Better still, try and work some subliminal messages in there - THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS ADD. WE, THE GOVERNMENT, ARE DRUGGING YOU AS A FORM OF SOCIAL CONTROL.

Please, for the love of God, stop pathologising and medicalising everyone.

Alternatively, perhaps use some Beefheart. He could never concentrate.

SHTML might work, lots of good album tracks too. Jona has done some ad work before, reasonable rates.

Screw you BB Skimpster. We're not talking psychiatry here. She just wanted some suggestions. ADD does exist. Wanker.

Just queue up "Ventolin" and call it a day.

― VengaDan Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 21 April 2004 19:19 (twenty-two years ago)

omg that was the name of a song i wrote way back in 1984, a punk ode to my inhaler.
is there another? if so, who does it?

― Orbit (Orbit), Thursday, 22 April 2004 04:58 (twenty-two years ago)

Ventolin? Aphex Twin.

― Paul in Santa Cruz (Paul in Santa Cruz), Thursday, 22 April 2004 05:05 (twenty-two years ago)
