raymond scott is the guy that wrote "powerhouse". (it's come up here before, i think in the context of a joe daniels recording. it's the funny music people associate with industrial machine scenes in warner brothers cartoons. duggaduggaduggawong: a whole city built in seconds! that sort of thing.)
anyway, this comic strip life of raymond scott is a fun 30 second read. i did not know he had experimented with automated composition.

Most will probably recognize it starting about a minute in, and there's about a 45sec segment that's danceable.
In my library I've got a version by Hal Kemp that's got a marginally better beat to it, but file quality is super low.
