So, as usual lately, I didn’t get around to doing what I wanted to do with Halloween music, so here’s one of probably a couple of mixes that I’ve done.
Here’s a snippet of mix 1. It’s a mashup/mix of Scientist and Creedence. It’ll give you a taste of what’s in store (they’re not all mashups, I swear).
I’ll write about the mixes soon, probably when they’re finished (if at all; I’m hoping to get to it). If a song is familiar, but sounds a little strange, it’s on purpose.
I’m putting the actual mix up on sendspace. If it runs out and you can’t download it, let me know.
Hope you like it. There’s a playlist included in the download and copied below. It’s an mp3, 128kbps, 55:34. Download.

Creedence and Scientist featuring the cats is pretty much the best Halloween song ever. You’re fucking brilliant, baby.
