about

The swingchronizer was an insane little box created by this guy Dan in the heady days of the Sydney DIY acid wave of the 90s. At that time precise and robotic clocks dominated. Most machines had no concept of swing at all. Those that did (e.g. the 707 and the 909 with their "shuffle" features) couldn't agree on how to achieve it and never really sounded like they were in sync with one another at all. Suddenly there was this magical box that created a messed-up clock signal that rapidly modulated tempo and created a consistent swing effect that at least a good subset of devices could sync to.

This album pays homage to this unassuming box that liberated time clocks from their purely linear form and applied a sinewave to them.
