Moonglow/This Bitter Earth is a 7" by Aaron Funk a.k.a. Venetian Snares, released in 2004 on Addict Records. It carries on from his EP Badminton (also a 7" record), in that it features jazz music, cut up to fit strange time signatures and fast programming.
The track "Moonglow" samples the 1962 Dinah Washington cover of Glenn Miller's song "A Handful of Stars". "This Bitter Earth" features samples from the 1990 film Edward Scissorhands, as well as the Dinah Washington song of same name.
"Moonglow" is in Venetian Snares' usual 7/4 time signature, whilst "This Bitter Earth" is in 10/4 time.
