East of Everything Series 2 Soundtrack
As in the first series of East of Everything, J Walker of Machine Translations has provided the original score and similarly, songs form a large part of its musical landscape. Again, the songs that made the cut were to be found in rootsy, Australian singer-songwriters.
Glenn Wright’s Mullumbimby-based label, Vitamin Records, provided a another rich seam of talent from Byron and its surrounds - from the iconic sounds of Juzzie Smith to amazing talents such as Sara Tindley and the sadly missed Jesse Younan. Machine Translations’ A Most Peculiar Place remains the series’ opening theme while G Wayne Thomas’ Open Up Your Heart from the seminal 70s Australian surf flick elegantly closes theseries.
The result is a soundtrack that is as distinctive, fresh and full of character and place as the series. The overall timbre is light and playful but with a sometimes darker element that is never too distant - a balance which reflects the many different faces of the Byron Shire itself.
