Maybe a clue to what ktpa 1+2 actually is...

I was listening to some old 7"s, and the B side to PiL's
Public Image single, called The Cowboy Song. Throughout the
song is definate ktpa noise going on, and at the start you
can hear it clearly. There you go.

Try to download the Public Image Limited track and you'll
see what I mean...

Just found this:

John Leckie - SJP Interview
Q: How easy or stressful was it to produce John Lydon on his
first PiL single?

JL: It wasn't easy.... I had been two weeks at The Manor
doing a record with Wilco Johnson and came down Monday
morning from the Manor after a few hours sleep to Advision
Studios (a studio I hadn't worked in before). The band all
had new equipment which hadn't been unpacked. I set up and I
always remember going out in the studio after working for 4
hours on an amazing drum sound and when I came back in Jah
Wobble had turned every knob and pushed every button on the
desk! (I engineered the session) John was OK but Keith
Levene was mad and insisted having his guitar amp in the
control room at full volume! Wobble poured beer down the
mixer and when the food arrived that was also thrown around
the room.
Wobble nicked my wallet and wouldn't give it back to me til
the next day! Keith Levene took the multitrack tape home
that night and came in the next day having forgotten it and
accused me of stealing it! The track was pretty much a live
take with Levene's guitar double tracked. John L. did his
vocal through a Space Echo dub style...
I did a rough mix and went home. The next day the band never
showed up and my rough mix was the record. I got no credit
but Richard Branson did give me £250! It wasn't stressful
just a lot of fun!

Thanks to SJP

That's it! Beer in the mixer!

i'm confident ktpa's are some sort of circuit
bending/manipulation type thing.

i've found similar sounds by the following methods:

keyboard circuit + water + my hands

it makes senes, and is entirely analogue

anyway...

I'm confident the kpta's are just shit and not worth any
justification.
