kennethreitz cc0d5666d8 Acid Reign: full rewrite — groovy hand-written 303 patterns

Four groove patterns with rests that make the rhythm:
A (pumping root), B (climbing), C (menacing gaps), D (syncopated funk).
Notes at A2-G3 range. Legato+glide, no envelope. Sidechain on 303/hats/pad.
Supersaw pad for atmosphere. 8th note patterns, not 16th arps.
