Greetings!

Happy belated International Strange Music Day!! The brainchild of composer/musician Patrick Grant, he of Tilted Axes fame, it took place on 8-24 and in true PTE style, a day (or so) late, but defiinitely not a dollar short as we present a plethora of interesting pieces for you to consider.

Enjoy,

Joel
