Halloween gigs!
View this Thread in Original format

Anyone spin at a Halloween party before? I'm looking for halloween themed songs to get for a mainstream party. So far I'm thinking of..

Michael Jackson - thriller
Rockwell - Somebody's watching me
Ray Parker - Ghostbusters

Any more suggestions?

Also for a costume I think I'm going to be an 80's hip hop star. I'm going to get a track suit, dollar sign bling, hat, and a ghetto boom box. :D

i think this thread comes up ever year. hehe.. try the horrorist - one night in nyc. it has a creepy xylophone in it, great for halloween.

or look for some remixes of the theme from the movie halloween, theyre badass

Try 'Are you afraid of the boogie monster' by Arman Van Helden
I have a sweet mashup of that and Dust planet by Leftfield.

If you want to sneak some trance in, try Digital Blonde: 'Gothica'. Probably won't work for a very mainstream party but an essential for all trance events over the Halloween period. :D

Ive got Digital Blonde - Gothica and Mark Norman - Phantom Manor lined up for my Halloween set.

Not particularly original but who cares eh? :D :D

Gothica is still one of my all-time favourite trance tracks. Love that spooky little toytown-style melody. Actually makes my cat sing whenever she hears it (and she's a black cat - hmmm..... ;) ).

you beat me to it you prick!:D

How about 'Das Glockenspiel', can't remember who its by, but if you are playing spooky sounding tracks or tracks with xylophones etc it might fit in quite well.

Schiller did 'Das Glockenspiel'.

Also last year Fatboy Slim did a brilliant Halloween essential mix, he started off with a Boris Karloff (the original dracula i think) sample, used some effects and then brought in the beat from his first track. It was a great start, very spooky ;-)
