An alternative (and occasional) music posting highlighting something out of the ordinary. Perhaps of limited appeal, unconventional, experimental or just far-out ! Call it what you like (or switch it off, if you don't like). 

Sometimes a piece of music perfectly fits the idea of these Midweek Spotlights. A bit left-field but pretty amazing and well worth sharing. 
We have had a FMS featuring the excellent Max Richter. His reimagining of Vivaldi's 'Four Seasons' - Spring 1 - was a Star Track in the Spring of 2017: [refresher link] 
Today's music is from his 2002 debut LP 'Memoryhouse'. The track 'November' is accompanied by this fantastic and creative video. Adding sound effects > the atmosphere builds but begins slowly with it raining and a heartbeat, the violin eases in and then on [2:35] it takes flight spinning to journey's end - it's quite a trip !
