In honour of the passing of Magnus Magnusson, take a moment out and listen to The Spume Of The Doomlocusts, an ambient collage featuring the vocal talents of the same Mr Magnusson. Or, a very good impersonator. Trainspotters amongst you will be intrigued to learn that it also features samples of Bartok, Ligetti, Michael Jackson, The Kodo Drummers, and a rendition of lyrics from Spinal Tap's seminal “Break like the wind” album. Backwards.
