Hi I created a Spotify playlist with all these tracks for anyone who missed the broadcast. http://open.spotify.com/user/bluem0nday/playlist/3aSdqJSuLMGIXDXY2aPJWk
I had to substitute a couple of tracks that weren’t avail on Spotify but I’d like to feel like I improved it slightly ;)
Awesome…Thanks for your efforts!
Hi Matt, I was excited to see that you had a link for this broadcast.. I was listening to it that night and was trying to find it. For some reason I can not access it. I would greatly appreciate it if you can help me with getting access to this music and playlist. Thank you! Marina
Sorry to Bitch, but the Christian Death song is “Romeo’s Distress”
Pretty great Halloween mix all in all!
I DJed a Halloween event on Saturday. My playlist is now posted and includes many of the same artists and even some of the same songs. http://www.theparalleluniverse.com/
