    Jesus. I'd just put several of his albums on my wishlist before Christmas, having only recently discovered his fantastic music. A man who had the inspiration to, among other things, create a suite of work using and hymning the obsolete technology of old IBM computers. This is a real shock – much, much too soon. RIP.

      Thanks VA. great link. I'm glad Jóhan didn't get a nil thread.

      The music for the Durham Miners footage is also wonderful.

        I discovered the Cause of Labour... on 6music recently. Amazing.

        Played it to Mrs KGR on Sunday night on news of Johannsson's death - she enjoyed it too, proceeding to buy the DVD of The Miners Hymns for my Valentine's present.
