This could be 'Oh Superman' by Laurie Anderson, an experimental classic and a ~hit~ of sorts for her in years past. Of course it might not be this at all but it is a piece which turns up occasionally and is often referrenced as being very influential in avant-classical (and even possibly in the avant-electronica) circles.
