Swedish producer Jay-Jay Johanson has teamed up with Cocteau Twins guitarist Robin Guthrie to cover "Laura" by Bat For Lashes in a new session produced by La Blogothèque.
As you've probably already guessed given the personnel involved and choice of song, this is a beautiful piece of music.
Johanson will release his tenth studio record, Opium, on 8 June via Kwaidan. He'll launch the record in London at a show at Dalston's Birthdays on 16 June.
Watch the stunning session performance of "Laura" below.
