Mashup: "The Bitter Earth/On The Nature of Daylight" (Dinah Washington & Max Richter)


Composer Max Richter created such an epic and somber piece with his mashup of Dinah Washington's "This Bitter Earth" and his own composition "On The Nature of Daylight."  Entitled "The Bitter Earth/On The Nature of Daylight," the song is lifted from the Shuttle Island soundtrack and is a sublime collaboration between Max's instrumental "On The Nature of Daylight" and Washington's vocal performance of "This Bitter Earth." Though recorded more then 50 years a part from one another, this mashup is phenomenal and is one of THE BEST mashups that I've heard point blank period. Take a listen below to "The Bitter Earth/On The Nature of Daylight," and Enjoy!
