Igor Wakhévitch is a French-born composer who released a series of studio albums in the 1970s and composed the music for the Salvador Dalí opera Etre Dieu. He is a relatively unknown composer but gained a small cult following through praises from Nurse with Wound (on the list of influences in their first album), Michael Gira from The Swans and a review of one of studio album by Dominique Leone for a feature on Pitchfork Media entitled "It Was the Strangest Record I Had Ever Heard"

It is said that there is a hidden message when played backwards. I do not have the technology for this therefore I cannot verify.
