The Samplist

My review of Francis Ellen's The Samplist has been published on Spike Magazine. It's a self-published book with plenty of p'zazz, and is pretty funny to boot. Here's an excerpt from my review:

In sum, The Samplist is an enjoyable scramble through a certain world on which Mr Ellen has the dope. Excerpts will not appear in style guides, and its appeal will be limited to those like a good fart joke to round off a discussion on Bach as the composer's composer. But, for all that, this self-published book is no vanity project.
