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!!!
