Text tracklist follows below.
This new mix is the inaugural post here on my blog- I hope it will be one of many! I plan on linking to all my old mixes here as well, so people can find them more easily. But that's still in the (near) future!
Since Halloween is coming up I wanted to make a mix featuring tracks that all gave me goosebumps or made the hair on the back of my neck stand up. Artists like Ben Klock, Voodeux, and Peace Division have been doing this quite well ever since I began listening to them.
It actually bothered me that Itamar Sagi's "Black Gold" is so beautiful because I felt like it didn't quite fit the creepy theme. Ultimately it is such a well-produced track that it gave me goosebumps, so I let it stay.
Obviously Trent Reznor is a master, so when I had the opportunity to lead off with one of his tracks for David Lynch's Lost Highway, I took it. Kind of a strange way to begin a house mix, but the "WTF?!?" factor made it worthwhile, I think.
This is not a particularly poppy or melodic mix, and it won't appeal to everybody, but at least we get the electro-meets-Michael Jackson antics of Hot Pink Delorean as a closer. Really, how could I pass up a song about Zombies on a Halloween mix?
