Go Insane: was it behind the times?

[louielouie2000]

I'm not saying the Fairlight was obsolete by '84... we all know it was quite relevant right through the '80s. I'm just saying Lindsey's implementation of it was dated. The usage of found sounds, the looping of one particular noise... people like Peter Gabriel had already done all that, years before. Obviously Go Insane was still out of the mainstream... but it was rather behind the groundbreaking curve.
