SOUNDTRACK New Year's Day 2014

Music that floated into consciousness to create the soundtrack for a roadtrip on the first day of a new year

Track 1. Making plans for a roadtrip / Chinese Dream by Caitlin Reilly 

Conjuring up image memories from the streets of Shanghai and intimate conversation cutting through the sensory overload. Here's more from Caitlin Reilly's Slow Songs for a Fast World CD

Track 2. Driving down the coast / Happy by Pharrell Williams

That's the official 4:08 min clip, but there's also a 24-hour version, presumably inspired by Christian Marclay's The Clock. If you'd like to see more of that clip at 12:05 of Richard Gere getting dressed to a soundtrack of Smokey Robinson and the Miracles here he is

Track 3. Driving back to the city through the Adelaide Hills / Perfect Form by Cyril Hahn and Shy Girls

At last, rain broke the spell of the heavy heat and humidity

SOUNDTRACKS inspired by the Sudanese boy travelling on the Western Line 

whose gold Soul brand headphones leaked so much sound I could hear what he was listening to 

and Shazam for identifying exactly what those sounds were 
[Who's Gon Stop Me by JayZ & Kanye West]

Stay tuned ...
