Mitchel, Billy

Electronic Dance

Accompanying the release of the lost soundtrack to the 1971 film 'Walkabout', here's a lost piece of music associated with Nicolas Roeg's seminal New Wave masterpiece. In addition to John Barry's spellbinding original score, several pieces of popular music can be heard throughout the film transmitting from a portable radio, an obvious symbol of western civilization as the protagonists wander disorientated in the ancient tribal Australian wilderness. Here one of these tracks is documented on a limited edition 7-inch, a forgotten slice of late '60s lysergic studio work from New York-based singer-songwriter Billy Mitchel. Produced by Brooks Arthur ('The Holy Mountain' Soundtrack), 'Electronic Dance' is a whirling mix of Indian raga, heavy jazz drums, buzzing electronics and tape collage melding into blue-eyed soul folk from the Woodstock scene.
