Beepster...(I love old Skinny Puppy, Ministry, Foetus, etc) which is pretty similar.

 
Awesome Beepster!  Me too!  As you may already know, the best SP album (in my opinion) just celebrated it's 25-year anniversary on October 30th!  That album is one, Too Dark Park.
 
And I'm still waiting for someone to post on YouTube the old, 1980's beer commercial (Bud Lite or Bud Dry) that featured "Everyday is Halloween" as the background song.  It's probably something old Alien Al doesn't want to resurface!

The one opinion I'll offer is that I love EDM, but I don't like it when it's formulaic. Remain true to the spirit of the music, not the implementation. For example I crossover a lot with rock and EDM...best or worst of both worlds, depending on your viewpoint. 
 
 





I like it Craig!

The only specific tool I could think of is a dedicated gate/effect sequencer like Audio Damage's BigSeq 2. So much faster than programming it all with automation.

I have a few secret weapons I use. outside of sonar would be Effectrics, Turnado, VPS bundle , Dune, wow, ohmboys, Ultraloop,timefreeze,punch attack fet compressor ,Catanya, list goes on and on..
 oh yeah tools inside of sonar I use would be the sonitus gate and compressor for side chaining, Matrix view never used not very productive for me,  a good one is the step sequencer,  the loop browser , list can go on and on, but as per daw they all do almost the same ,
