Sounds like your electricity on the fritz...
I recommend to anyone with freezing issues to try it out on a dif circuit breaker or on a power conditioner...

  One day a few months ago my Monomachine would freeze every so often I 
  had to soft reset it every single time. It would either freeze during 
  boot or during playback. At that point i was ready to send an email to 
  Elektron and see if i could get it fixed, but it hasn't had that problem 
  ever since... weird eh?
