[@99albino]

Back when the cavemen could only have one string gauge (it’s believed due to the density of mammoth intestine walls essentially), they would often have the extra percussive clicking sound when strings were thumped. That and due to the recording quality on straight up rocks, a certain clipping would occur at a few frequencies. To us now, it’s known and no longer a mystery; however to them, just a way of life, expressing their emotions raw and unga bunga. Few records from this era have survived intact, and specifically from the mosholothic age/downtune era(affectionately and colloquially referred to as the ‘unga bunga core’-period).
