This piece of music haunted me as child and I still find it eerie as an adult. The music is entitled "Manache" by Lasry-Baschet. It was used as the theme for an ITV children's educational programme which was aimed at five to eleven year olds. Years later, after an internet trawl, I located a little 10" record of this music. It's all very odd. Even the instruments are odd. Another reason I find this odd, is that one of the musicians is flying through the air. Not very oddly, I've posted some images for you to enjoy.

I didn't realize the Picture Box theme was a Lasry-Baschet tune. Will be searching for that record.
It reminds me of Oval Emerald Vertigo by Bibio. Check that tune out.
