I woke up this morning with "Orlando, he dead." in my head, found out the whole album is here. Hadn't heard this in a long time, so smart, so good. When was this album made?
Beautiful! This album calls to mind the great avant garde composers of the late 20th century. What a fantastic gift to the world. It is also a great gift to filmmakers, as each work could easily be a film soundtrack. These works run the gamut from Danny Elfman-esque fun to serious dramas.
