“This was something unexpected and truly different: pulsing electronic textures that derived their rhythm from the beating patterns of closely-tune pitches – as if Alvin Lucier and Philip Glass had gone on a blind date to CBGBs… David put the beat in beating patterns.”- From the liner notes by composer Nic Collins (on his initial exposure to First’s music in 1987)
