Mittwoch Mixes - It's Been a Long Way to Carry On... / give me infinite skies

Two mixes for this Mittwoch Mix post...

My wife and I saw the Brutalist last month, which was excellent, and I knew that Brady Corbet had directed Childhood of a Leader and Vox Lux, which had soundtracks by Scott Walker. But it wasn't until the credits rolled that I realized he'd also dedicated the film to Scott Walker. It's a gorgeous and unsettling film, and it put me back in the mind of Walker's music, which is also gorgeous and often unsettling, so I decided to finally finish the mix of remixes and covers I'd been assembling of his work.

I cheated a little by including the Scott Walker + SUNN O))) version of "Lullaby," that he originally wrote for Ute Lemper, but since it was the final track from his final non-soundtrack album, it also seemed fitting and was a cover in its own way.

# Artist Track
1 Jim Sharp The Old Man’s Back (Jim Sharp Remix)
2 The Soundcarriers The Seventh Seal
3 Dax Riggs 30 Century Man
4 Dot Allison Montague Terrace (In Blue)
5 Simon Bonney Duchess
6 Zen Mother Joanna
7 ØXN Farmer In the City
8 Chris Connelly The Amorous Humphrey Plugg
9 Jarboe A Lover Loves
10 Sondre Leche The Plague
11 Marc & the Mambas Big Louise
12 Jim Sharp Epilogue (Jim Sharp Remix)
13 Scott Walker + Sunn O))) Lullaby

The second mix is a collection of songs with a nice propulsive motorik groove—I’ve been working on a writing project this last week, and the driving beat is great for focusing.
