I made this (as you would expect) in preparation for Halloween 2009, as I’d never really made a Halloween themed mix before (that I could remember).

It’s a very pan-genre mix, running the gamut from rap to metal, from industrial to disco, and with a Wesley Willis track to cap it all off. All of the songs have a scary theme/title, whether it be monsters, murder, or something in between.

Very NSFW (or radio) at times, for those of you who care.

Tracklist:

Whodini – The Haunted House of Rock (remix)
Gnarls Barkley – The Boogie Monster
Grand Buffet – Murderfuck
Danzig – Twist of Cain
Skinny Puppy – Testure
Goblin – Tenebrae (main title)
Addrisi Brothers – Ghost Dancer (Hey Convict! Rebirth)”
Fudgie & Fufu – Surfin’ Dracula (a cappella)
Hot Ice – Theme from ‘Friday the 13th Part 3’
13 & God – Ghostwork
Cesare vs. Disorder – Midday Vampire
Clark – Dead Shark Eyes
The Bulgarian feat. Spoek – Jack It Like a Zombie (Santiago & Bushido remix)
Bloc Party – Hunting for Witches (Ruckus Roboticus remix)
Metalchicks – Dead Loss Angeles
Otto von Schirach – Tea Bagging the Dead
20goto10 – Halloween
Buckethead – Mad Monster Party
Wesley Willis – Suck a Werewolf’s Dick

With selections from General Mills cereal flexi-disc “The Monsters Go Disco”, William S. Burroughs‘ “Naked Lunch”, and a few horror films.

dj empirical, halloween eve @ exbe showcase clevelandThis is just under 10 minutes of my performance at the ExBe Showcase in Cleveland. I was plagued with technical difficulties for the first half of the show, as I remember, and you can tell from this snippet: the right channel of one of my decks was not coming through.

The tracklist on this is essentially two mashups: firstly a Venetian Snares track (something from Songs About My Cats) blended with a bit of The Bangles’ “Eternal Flame”, and then into some exercise record, which blends into something from (I believe) Original Hamster.

That show was particularly special for me, because John Cameron Mitchell and Stephen Trask stopped into the venue to play a few songs. It was the weekend before Election Day, and they were traveling around Ohio (a swing state) to try to just get out the vote. I was (and still am!) a huge fan of Hedwig and the Angry Inch, so I was incredibly excited not only to see them, but to share a bill with them, however accidental.

I was busy playing when they were walking around talking to people, but I did manage to get one pic with John Cameron Mitchell (too bad I look silly as hell).
