Sounds Like: They were called Brown sierra and rather than being Electronica they were
almost Electrica. Lots of little electrical and mechanical devices,
contact mikes, electric motors from toys with things attached to the end,
doorbells, tone generators.
No keyboards.
At first it seemed scratching and buzzing and unstructured, but then it
slowly became apparent that the two people fussing round their table of bits
were working together and coherently. It was very organic, a bit chaotic
where things were broken, or broke during the performance.
