Micronations mix MN007: STUART BUCHANAN - MICRONATIONS: SOUNDTRACK FOR AN IMAGINARY AUSTRALIA (April 2011)
Head/s of State: Stuart Buchanan
Sister City: Sydney, Australia
Foreign Relations: http://www.stuartbuchanan.com / http://www.newweirdaustralia.com
Factbook:
originally hosted at: http://www.stuartbuchanan.com/index.php/mixtape-soundtrack-for-an-imaginary-australia-2010/

Growing up in Scotland, I spent the first 30 years of my life in ignorance of what truthfully represented Australian culture. However, some of the most cherished music that I listened to in my late teens and early 20s was, in fact, born of this country – and this mix compiles music from that time. Listening from a distance, halfway around the world, these artists (and particularly the tracks represented here) became a soundtrack for an imaginary Australia. What surprises me most, sadly, is that many of these artists are rarely discussed or referenced here in Australia – indeed, their personal impact would seem inversely proportional to their local legacy.
Features extracts from:
Alan Lamb – Night Passage
Dead Can Dance – The Host Of Seraphim
The Foetus All-Nude Revue – Diabolus In Musica
SPK – The Doctrine Of Eternal Ice
Single Gun Theory – Words Written Backwards (Radio Baghdad Edit)
This Mortal Coil – Dreams Made Flesh *
Future Sound Of London – Papua New Guinea (Dumb Child Of Q Mix) **
Severed Heads – Big Car Crash
Dead Can Dance – Chant Of The Paladin
The Foetus All-Nude Revue – Shut
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds – Watching Alice
Alan Lamb – Last Anzac
Single Gun Theory – Wild Blue Seas
Harold Baigent – Opening Narration from ‘The Road Warrior’
