Title: Halloween Themed Dance Music?
Post by: StaedlerMars on 17 Oct 2009, 02:40

Does it exist?

Aside from Thriller, I'm having a pretty hard time thinking of anything. Reason I need to think of something is cause apparently I'm helping DJing at the student union halloween night.

Any ideas?

I would say E Nomine but it is probably too cheesy for most peoples tastes.

E Nomine - Lucifer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdBHnd1gpQ4)
E Nomine - Mitternacht (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QpntM6lrpQE)
E Nomine - Vater Unser (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHahMGj657Q)

Other things you might consider of course:

Bobby 'Boris' Pickett & The Cryptkickers (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0thH3qnHTbI&feature=related)*
The Crazy World of Arthur Brown - Fire (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOErZuzZpS8)
The Ghastly Ones - Halloween (She Got So Mean) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2snzBmg6Rg&feature=PlayList&p=4E18C6EB7DF25048&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=33)
The Meteors - Slow Down You Grave Robbing Bastard (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7U45OPR3e4E)
Ministry - Every Day is Halloween (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIMfdlVGmqM)
Zombina and the Skeletones - Horror Highschool (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ftXvmmfma-k)


I could extemporise on this subject at quite enormous length but I gotta go to work.



*Couldn't find a youtube version without the background noises.

If you can't dance to The Cramps, you probably shouldn't be out on Halloween.

Deadmau5 - Moar ghosts & stuff (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ImsrPW5ivGo)
Designer Drugs - Zombies (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2h_wiFyqos) (or the Hot Pink Delorean remix for some "bonus" Thriller action)

Wouldn't really have had that down as extremely danceable.

Zombie Nation. I forget if that's the song or artist name, but it's awesome all the same.

It is the artist name:

Zombie Nation - Kernkraft 4000 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5LW07FTJbI)

I don't know why you would listen to anything but the Misfits on Halloween

Hmm...here are two classics:

Ministry - Everyday is Hallowe'en
Skinny Puppy - Dig It
Front 242 - Headhunter

And some new stuff:
Zombie Girl - Go Zombie
Unter Null - Zombie Boy
Noisuf-X - Geh Zur Holle(calm down mix)
              Hit Me Hard(and hit me fast)
              Nervous Beatz (for maniac freaks)
Soman - Absolution
            Divine (modulate remix)

Give me a bit and I'll scrounge a few more if you like these.

Well if stuff that has "zombie" in the name is Halloween-appropriate, put on "Zombie" by Fela Kuti. I mean, sure, it's not so much a Halloween song as it is a scathing criticism of the Nigerian army from the 1970s, but (A) it's fucking awesome, (B) you can't not dance to it, and (C) it'll use up a good twelve minutes of your radio slot.
