Clockwork Black - Wendy Carlos
Utterly brilliant, Wendy is such an inventive composer and arranger and use of the Theremin and Vocoder adds a really creepy nightmarish quality, you can close yours eyes and see the things scurying around in dark corners. Reminds me of Danny skulking in Castle Dixon with his Arp 2600 in virtual darkness. This would have been brilliant for the film 'Night Watch'. Actually what would be disturbing is a remake of clockwork orange with some of the original cast as old, bitter and guilt ridden old people.
