Soundtrack - Motherless Brooklyn

Motherless Brooklyn is a soundtrack album for the 2019 film Motherless Brooklyn, released in November 2019 via WaterTower Music.

Thom Yorke & Flea, Wynton Marsalis, and Daniel Pemberton are some of the musical heavyweights whose music is featured on the soundtrack to Motherless Brooklyn, the film directed, written by, produced by and starring Edward Norton.

Featured on the album are two versions of the song “Daily Battles”, each performed by musical icons of modern music. Thom Yorke (who wrote the song) along with Flea (Red Hot Chili Peppers, Atoms For Peace) perform a sparse and emotionally stunning version, featured on the second track of the soundtrack album.

The second version of “Daily Battles” was arranged and performed by jazz trumpet icon Wynton Marsalis, who, along with his hand-picked quintet of heavy-hitter-jazz-stalwarts delivers an instant jazz standard version of the song that conjures images of the 1950’s-era gin-soaked Harlem jazz club seen in the film.

Additionally, the album showcases new recordings of several jazz classics along with and songs created by in-demand composer Daniel Pemberton – all in that same smoky-jazz-club vibe - recorded by Marsalis and his ensemble specifically for the film.

This album is on black vinyl, pressed in the US via WaterTower Music.
