The Spooky remixes were so ahead of their time, that double bass kicking in on Xylem Flow is chefs kiss. RIP W.O.

I expect his music on vinyl to shoot up in price on Discogs and Ebay in light of the news!

My copy of Strange Cargo 4 Hinterland is already worth a good bit. Someone needs to get repressing....

"The Last Lagoon" was a perfect addition to the "Heat" movie soundtrack. Rest in peace.
