Upon innocently revisiting the transcription of Hunter I made last year I noticed a small mistake which kicked off a series of unfortunate(?) events and lead me down a rabbit hole. Did Mark Bell really program this on a 909 or did Björk blatantly lie to us on her podcast? I was determined to uncover the truth. But at what cost? Find out more in our newest video...

After regaining my sanity I also took this as an opportunity to complete my transcription of Hunter. It now contains all the patterns from the song with additional remarks.
