I don't so much care that he "retired" (or didn't), or even that his announcement is really weird. I'm just more surprised that no one really covered it only two years removed from him having one of the biggest international hits in recent memory.

I was just reading the new Tape Op and there's a great feature on the guy. Apparently he's really gotten into the ondioline, not just playing it but paying for historic restorations and in particular archiving the works of Jean-Jacques Perrey.
Here's a profile from Petrusich from last summer:

His 2004 Depeche Mode cover for indie electronic label Groovescooter is now available on Bandcamp, either as a 'single' or on the covers album it came from.
