"Well, it's a very strange musical instrument where you have the power to grab sound and play with it's time, pitch, move it backwards, etc. Not to mention that it sounds super ridiculously funky and insane and bizarre and groovy all rolled in one, times a zillion other things it can do that are yet undiscovered!" - DJ Qbert
