    Ben Watt - Winter Aconite - Deep Folk Mixtape 7

    Interesting (but please, Ben: bring Buzzin' Fly back).

    I stumbled across a recording of a weather report from the Burns’ Day storm of 1990 during which more than ninety people lost their lives. It inspired me to make this latest Deep Folk Mixtape. I chose songs and field recordings that all deal with winter and the Christmas season - a period of reflection and loss but also coming together and regeneration.


    [Found sound: Weather report, London Volmet South, The Burns Day Storm 1990]
    [Overdub: Synth]
    The Roches - Star of Wonder
    Smoke Fairies - Snowglobe Blizzard
    [Field recording: Winter wren, Nova Scotia]
    Yazoo - Winter Kills
    [Field recording: Winter dogs and birds]
    [Found sound: Weather report, RAF Volmet]
    Calexico - Green Grows the Holly
    Bill Callahan - Winter Road
    [Field recording: Old car starting in winter]
    Lisa Hannigan - Snow
    [Field recording: Christmas bells]
    Nico - Winter Song
    Sean Smith - I Can’t Wait for Winter
    [Field recording: Dog barking]
    Midlake - Winter Dies
    [Field recording: Church bells, Princes Street, Edinburgh]
    The Durutti Column - Sketch for Winter
    [Field recording: Alexanderplatz, Christmas song and Hare Krishna]
