Thanks for the comment!</p>mersenneFri, 06 Jun 2008 11:13:59 -0000http://www.undomondo.com/2008/06/quiet-village/#comment-2982396<p>Although Martin Denny hit it big with "Quiet Village" and Exotica, no one really credits Les Baxter (who wrote "Quiet Village" in 1951) with starting off Exotica. Everyone seems to think Denny set it off, and although he is great few realize that Baxter did a lot of pioneering (Aphex Twin called him a "Right Weirdo"). Thanks for posting the tracks!</p>katasuiFri, 06 Jun 2008 09:32:32 -0000
