SpookySeptober VI
Back to the oldies ('51 to '67). Carlos Casal, Jr.'s "Don't Meet Mr. Frankenstein" from '58; Lord Luther with The Kingsmen's "(I Was A) Teenage Creature" also from '58; The Cherry Slush's "The Wicked Old Witch" from '67; The Fabulous Five's "Janie Made a Monster" from '59 and Boots Walker's "They're Here" from '67 to name just a few. Also, the main title theme to 1966's "Island of Terror," a film that scared the crap out of us back in our youth. 20 chilling tracks. Enjoy!

SpookySeptober 5!
Once again, Halloween in September here at the Groovy Library. And starting off this year, gems from the noughties/aughts. A mixed bag of experimental rock, indie rock, electronics, a dub or two, etc, and nothing harsh. Jason Beers' "Sasquatch Beatnik Poetry" is hilarious. I laugh at the title alone. 8-Bit Ninja's "Thriller" is a really good goodie. I used to listen to Chiptune a lot many years back (some call it Bitpop, 8-bit, Nintendocore, etc). The Thriller track is obviously that tune, and I love the 8-bit version, especially that funky groove.
Skunky Beaumont's dnb-tinged "Voodoo Train (Crispy)" is great but unfortunately, only a minute long. Mad Scientist Dorn's "I Know a Serial Killer" is another goodie, mind you the r-rated lyrics. The awesome and somewhat cute instrumental "Halloween Crab Dance" by The Swingsberry Clams is another goodie but too short in time duration. Fans of Tom Waits should enjoy Skeletons Out of the Closet's "They're Coming to Get You." The Holophonics do a good ska take on the popular "The Monster Mash." HEX's "Ghosts & Pumpkins" should appease the hip-hop fans.
20 tracks and all goodies. Enjoy!
