Calamus Root Magician is a long-time fan of Newsom. For a guy who ranks her in a tie with Madlib for the title of most relevant popular musician of the 21st century, a remix project was inevitable.
The Murthering Stake, a twenty-minute, quasi hip-hop tribute project, has been delivered safely:

It is done in good taste, and out of a genuine appreciation for Joanna Newsom's work. If the idea intrigues you, you should check it out. If it discomfits you, you should avoid it. (Also, if you hate vinyl LP pops . . .)
Peace.
