Brushfire and Woodshed Films stay true to the roots of surf filmmaking with their fourth and latest project, “A Brokedown Melody”. Originally released to the core surf market in 2005, “A Brokedown Melody” had a wider release along with the original soundtrack which is released on Jack Johnson’s label, Brushfire Records. The “A Brokedown Melody” soundtrack includes 2 new tracks from Johnson as well as an alternate version of the track “Breakdown”.
“It’s up to wave-riding moviegoers to determine whether A Broke Down Melody is its generation’s Endless Summer; but as of the release of this soundtrack, one thing’s for certain: nobody’s making cooler, more chilled-out surf records than Jack Johnson’s Brushfire Records. A Broke Down Melody tours the world’s coasts and collects accessible tunes that could technically fit in a bunch of genres, whether folk, world, indie rock, or reggae. The thing is, they all adhere to a vibe: Johnson might as well be leading listeners by the hand into his own private village, one where friends make music all around and all it takes to get a sampling is a soft knock on the next grass-hut door. Standouts include the Johnson originals, but it’s easy to fall leash-over-longboard in love with some of the lesser-known artists—Johnny Osbourne’s “We Need Love” is Bob Marley bright, Matt Costa’s two contributions call him out as a major talent, and “Know How,” a jaunty little groove by Kings of Convenience, is enlivened by an appearance by the indie darling Feist. Fuzzy, vintage-style photos collected in the liner notes up the appeal; way to wear a wetsuit, Jack.” – Amazon.com
