After writing “It Doesn’t Suck,” I discovered Impulse Tracker, a tracking program that, although based on Scream Tracker, offered many improvements over the original.

Most of the samples in this track are telephone and modem samples that I created; although a few are from other sources. I consider this to be my favorite track of my three techno tracks.

The version presented here is not the original; I shortened it because I felt that the original was too long and repetitive.
