I’ve yet to see any of these so I can’t say whether the label is warranted or not.<\/p>\n \u2022 At Wormwoodiana: Mark Valentine\u00a0in a two-part post here<\/a> and here<\/a> charts the emergence of an under-examined sub-genre, the metaphysical thriller.<\/p>\n \u2022 Power Spots: 13 artists choose favourite pieces of music by Jon Hassell<\/a>.
