    This is a fantastic piece! I add my voice to the comments that ask you to do a full-length version!
    I've been listening to music for over 50 years. I'm serious as **** about it. But it's not often that I get a really happy surprise like this.
    This is one fantabulous piece taken on its own terms! The disjoint harmonies and the smooth groove combine like salt and chocolate or like white pepper and ice cream! (Trust me, they're both great.) You've taken two of the greatest 20th century musical works and created something amazingly original. I hope I can hear a longer version of it, which I will then put on autorepeat anyway.
    I wish I could "like" this piece ten thousand times.
