I don't know if I'd classify player piano rolls as "analog."  I 
recall a Fresh Air interview with Les Paul in which he said that when 
he was a kid, he noticed that when he slowed down the gramophone, the 
pitch of the music slowed.  But when he slowed down the player piano, 
the pitch didn't change, and wondering why the two were different is 
what set him off on investigating recording technology.
Speaking of piano rolls, how about Conlon Nancarrow's Study 3a?  Wild 
stuff--sounds like the kids are hopped up on goofballs.
