Wintry Mix

The Abolition of Serfdom in Russia - Alphonse Mucha


Acknowledged Classic enjoys it when the weather report calls for a 'Wintry Mix', as it gives Acknowledged Classic the opportunity to imagine, in place of, or rather as complement to, a sloshy aggregate of frozen water in manifold forms, a sonic sequence similar to the one available here:

Recent album releases that are highly appropriate seasonal soundtracks: Burial: Untrue,



particularly for winding one's way through the subway system in a large metropolis on a sunless late afternoon. And Deepspace presents Echochord: The Coldest Season,



which additionally wins the gold star for the most Spinal Tap-like name in minimal beats, and true to cover art, is well built for the view out a window into a murky, monochromatic world of barren fields and skeleton trees.

Historical releases well-suited for this category include The Cure: Faith.



An album ripe for an album-length mash-up akin to Danger Mouse's Grey Album - but instead of the Beatles with Jay-Z, imagine Faith along with a handful of Raekwon acappellas. The album's mournful keys and stiff rhythms always seemed like Wu territory to me. Electronic funeral party jams. The attentive listener will note that 'Valley of the Devil' pairs the cure's 'funeral party' to a snippet of Project Pat vocals from 'Ski Mask'.
