It's a flat device with a matrix of buttons on the front. It's played by activating sequences and combinations of the switches to produce all sorts of interesting melodies and harmonies. I've never heard anything quite like it before. It works by using a repetitive loop that you create and modify on each cycle. It's funny to see how musical instruments are starting to evolve. The blue sky is infinitely high, crystal clear...that's what the world should be...a world of infinite possibilities, laid before us, crystal clear"
