Got a cool link from my Russian colleague: inoyan.livejournal.com/3879... (don't worry, it's not a scam website ;-) )

The grid is continually scanned and where ever you have clicked on a box it will make a noise. Try clicking boxes on and off to make music.

And there was me thinking you were talking about the excellent Mariah Carey album of the same name. ;)

If you have one of those iPhones there are several apps that do this (Beatwave and SoundSketch jump to mind), and even a DS game (although the name escapes me) from around 2008.

I believe Cal linked to an early Flash version on his blog - buggered if I can search that with any success though.

Not seen one in Russian before though, at least =]
