If you're at a loose end and want something to soundtrack ninety minutes of your life you could do worse than this mix from the Quiet Storm family, a blogmind compilation expertly sequenced by Mark. This one took suggestions of songs inspired by the cosmos, the moon and the stars. It opens with William Shatner, takes in a wide cast of stargazers including Prefab Sprout, Billy Preston, AR Kane, The Upsetters, David Sylvian, Chilly Gonzales, Billy Bragg, Declan O'Rourke, Stereolab, I Am Kloot, Mayer Hawthorne, Sandy Denny and Labelle and finishes with Rutger Hauer and the 'tears in rain' scene from Bladerunner. See if you can guess what I suggested.
And this didn't occur to me at the time but it could have been a fine addition to the mix, Paul Weller dubbed out and spaced out by Brendan Lynch back in 1993.

Nice way to start the Lunar New Year SA ! Thanks and Happy Year of the Cock! oops...meant Rooster....
ReplyDeleteHappy Year of the Big Hen to you too.
ReplyDeleteNice idea to put this mix together, I'll give it a try. Anything to do with Blade Runner and I'm there. I'm wondering what the soundtrack for upcoming Blade Runner 2049 sequel will be like.
