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). 

Another unusual piece of music I've been saving for a more appropriate time of year, having first heard it on Radio 6 last October.
It's called 'Nightingale Part 1' and is by an artist named Cosmo Sheldrake (really his name). So far, so weird, wait till you hear the track. He's a British multi-instrumentalist musician, composer and producer. The piece is from last years album release called 'Wake Up Calls'. Using actual bird song interwoven into beautiful peaceful soundscapes. 
The BBC naturalist Brett Westwood has compared the song of the Nightingale to a “jazz musician, improvising on a theme”. See what you make of it >


'Part 2': [is here] - and many other songs by Cosmo Sheldrake on YouTube, naturally.
