i'm looking for an example of the opposite end of editing and chopping out of habit.

I do not exhibit this habit, personally.
Regarding opposites of grids and auto tuners, check out "Just a Little Tuna" from The Paul Wertico Trio on the _Don't Be Scared Anymore_ CD, released by Premonition Records:

The bass player played trumpet (poorly - though Eric is an accomplished trumpeter), Paul dropped sticks and made mis-hits on the kit, tuning issues, timing. Its a gas!
That record was done on three ailing ADATS, no cut/copy/paste, I assure you. The rest of the album was done to a click (perhaps locate _Modern Drummer_ October 2000 for the skinny on the making of the album - its got Jon Fishman on the cover).
Now I hear he uses Sonar, there goes the neighborhood - he lives down the street from my studio.
I'm currently in the middle of a "free-jazz" project involving a guitar synthesizer and a twisted mind. Slow going but surely not on any kind of grid - true "expessionism" through synthesis with zero musical phrases or rhythms. Challenging.
Takes all kinds, I suppose.
