Chris Jordan Hybrid Technologies, Cambridge England, mid 80's.

Stack-based language for programming music synthesizers. The letters a-g are the musical notes. A change to capitals indicates a change up an octave, to lowercase is down an octave (symbols < and > do this explicitly). Polyphony achieved through form of multitasking.

500/5000 music synthesizers were add-on for the BBC micro.

Many listings published in Acorn User magazine.
