Who was it that said "I'm not OCD, I'm CDO. I like he letters in the right order." on here?
Own up, I just used it a group chat at work.
Right, back to work.

The first reference seems to be DD, back in July 2010:

Either you have a very good memory, or a very good search engine.
Either case, it is nice to get some Nagy post and fun it relates to the Dalek.

It's the latter, unfortunately.
Search[^] for "ocd AND cdo", change the "Sort by" to "Created (Old - New)", and it's the first result.

JAMBINAI - ONDA[^]
This week's SOTW comes from @PaltryProgrammer.
Jambinai is a Korean post-rock band and this song is named ONDA from the album of the same name, which means "come" or "coming" (as he explains in the video).
I don't know NPR music, but apparently they have regular video's and this one was recorded at home during the pandemic.
The video's description says it all "At its heart, JAMBINAI's music mixes elements of metal, noise and Korean tradition. There's full-on distorted guitar, bass and drums, but also a haegeum (a fiddle-like instrument), a piri (a type of flute), a taepyeongso (a reed instrument) and a most appropriately named instrument, a geomungo (a giant Korean zither). We also hear some delicate vocals in the mix."
I've never seen some of the instruments they use, so that's pretty cool.
And it sounds great too, although you might want to skip the first four minutes as that's really the prelude (and explanation) to the actual song.

Oi Sander, did you figure out that thing you emailed me about? I hadn't heard from you - hope it's not gmail being silly.

I did, thanks.
I'm... Contemplating
Actually looking at it right now

Okay, so lets get music & instruments from two different cultures.
Then smash 'em, bash em & mash 'em together. Then solder 'em, weld 'em and gaffer tape 'em to hold them together.
What do you get? A freakin' good sound.
My two cents, don't skip the first four minutes.
