This is the perfect playlist for HALLOWEEN!
I figured these tracks would work great for this time of year
when everyone gets dressed up and goes out to parties or trick
or treating. I figured a mostly electronica mix would work great
so this is what I have come up with.
I start things off with The Hacker of Miss Kittin and The Hacker
fame. It's a great spooky, dark track of minimal electro sounds
that The Hacker is known for. The album comes off of his latest
release Reves Mecanique. Those of you who are Miss Kittin fans
can also find a track that she guests on.
I then head off to the Campy Industrial sounds of My Life With
The Thrill Kill Kult. This track comes off of the Confessions Of
A Knife album and it's a great track in this mix. It works
perfectly as it has the sampled sounds of movies. Next up is
Nightmare by Brainbug. This was a pretty big hit back in the
late 90's in the club world. It's got that great sample of a
classic Hollywood film soundtrack. It's sounds great and it's
very upbeat and energetic!
Next up I have a track from EON. What an awesome artist Ian
Loveday is as he had produced one of the most excellent
electronic releases of the 1990's. Fear: The Mind Killer
(Original Mix With Beats) by Eon comes from the only great album
he put out called Void Dweller. The entire album samples
horror/sci-fi movie soundtracks like Dune and Basket Case. If
you haven't checked out this album definitely find it and listen
to it as it's a masterpiec! I then head off into Hip Hop
territory with Bloodsuckers by Spectre. Then right after that is
Killer's Lullaby by Faithless remixed by Nightmares on Wax for a
more downbeat feel to it from the original.
I continue slowing things down a bit with some very minimal
creepy electronica tunes by Grace Period and Piana then kick
things right back up with the classic track Ghost Town by the
Specials and Help Me by Timo Maas featuring the fabulous Kelis.
This track is amazing as it samples the music from The Day The
Earth Stood Still while Kelis is singing Help Me.
I wanted to end this playlist with one of my favorite
Industro/New Wave/Techno Pop tracks of all time. Everyday Is
Halloween by Ministry. A great track that still sounds great
today. This track was released right before Ministry went on to
become the hardcore/thrash/punk musicians they became and
produced pretty crappy material. I'd much rather listen to these
earlier more electronic tracks of theirs like Work For Love,
Cold Life, Effigy and Everyday Is Halloween. Anyway that's it
for this playlist as it clocks in at 78 minutes just enough to
fit a CD.
Have a Happy Halloween!!!
