on radical recording, and we want to hear from you! Our studio stories

fire (Dave Sardy with Marilyn Manson), but we know there are plenty of
"best kept secrets" out there...Send us your wildest recording
technique! The most extreme (printable!) submissions will be featured in
our February issue. E-mail mixeditorial@mixonline.com -- photos welcome!

others who pioneered the use of sampling. For a direct link to the eBay
