According to the City Pages's Peter Scholtes, MC Skat Cat was a Minneapolis rapper called Delite,of the crew Soul Purpose. Sadly, I was rocking the metal in Hastings, Minn, at that point (i.e., 1987), so no clear recollections of either keyboards or drum machines.

You really think you're going to learn something with these posts, don't you?

Okay subgenius, you should email me because it's almost a certainty that you either know me or my older brother.

I love that between them, Dan and his brother knew every metaller in 1987 Hastings, Minn.

I have a vague recollection of reading in an old Amiga magazine that PA used Amigas for production. Seems unlikely, tho, with 4 * 8bit mono channels...
