# Stream David Lynch’s new mixtape
Ever the gentleman weirdo, **David Lynch** is not only giving us a
beautiful new album this year; he's also just released a mixtape.
Mmm...it's sentences like that that really make us love reality. The
director has collaborated with engineer **'Big' Dean Hurley** on a
collection of tracks for [The Stool Pigeon][1], and it's as hauntingly
lovely as you'd expect.
Oozing with the sort of bluesy lounge melancholia that permeates most of
his directorial work, the mixtape includes contemporary artists like
**James Blake** and **The Kills**, but it's the desperate, faded
Americana of **Conway Twitty** and **Elvis** that do it for us. The mix
closes with the heavenly pleasures of **This Mortal Coil**'s 'Song To
The Siren', long a favorite of Lynch. To be listened to in a dark room,
through clouds of cigarette smoke.
