Fork Code: The Last Thing We Wanna Do

name

code content

/* A little homage to "Come Out" by Steve Reich.
   It explores ryhtmic aspects created by phasing, retriggering, and pitch shifting.
   It "detours" the original audio message available here
   http://www.freesound.org/people/ERH/sounds/34667/
   in which a police patrol recites
   "We don't want to scare your children, that's the last thing we wanna do".
