I'm not sure how many of you care, but this saddened me deeply. His music has meant a great deal to me and the world is worse off without him.

I've been meaning to listen to Sparklehorse for a very long time.

Even though I never have, this news saddens me.

R.I.P.

Always sad when creative people take their own lives.

Nobody wins.

I don't know his oeuvre too well, but I'm still sad.  :'(

The only album I know from him is his collab with Fennesz, which I thought was fucking brilliant. I'm going to put that on now in tribute.
