What is the origin of the track/video "End Times" on the Video Player on this site? R.S Thomas reciting his poem, but what is the backing music?

It's a track called ''On the Little In-Betweens" by Akira Rabelais from his album Caduceus. Originally released on Samadhi Sound.

Thanks for prompting me to look again at this. Was this little video something that DS posted? I remember seeing it before, struggling to remember the background.

Actually, I think it's two different tracks from the same album - the one mentioned above and "And the Permanence of Smoke and Stars". Similar notes, but Smoke and Stars is processed to be more warped and grainy...

Yes, I think DS posted it somewhere, sometime. Don't remember. Always thought it was a great little miniature - that music, the poetry and the snow flying upwards. Very atmospheric.

Thanks for the reply. I bought "Spellewauerynsherde". Got to dig a little deeper and get the second one.
