Yeah, I have to admit that the whole burning piano thing makes me a little uncomfortable. Heck, even shaving twigs on the tree makes me a little uncomfortable !

I saw this some time ago. pretty amazing stuff. This reminds me of one of my heroes, Mr.Amon Tobin. amontobin.com // check him out, the field recordings sessions are brilliantly crafted works of art. He likes the kitchen sink approach…literally.
