While all of this ‘live’ show one-upmanship going on you’d be forgiven for getting a little over the almost weekly announcement of a new player in the ranks. But looking at Amon Tobin’s spectacular new setup might just change your mind.
Somewhere back in the mid-90's a fresh faced Brazilian ex-pat living in the UK decided he was going to put down his harmonica, pick up a sampler, and name himself after a Stephen King novel.
