On Halloween I'm supposed to be DJing at a gig by much-loved Pet Shop Boys tribute act Baxendale. Problem is, I have no idea what to play! My record collection boasts almost nothing like Baxendale - and it might be nice to go for a bit of themed stuff on everyone's favourite fright night. Wooooo.
So - I'm asking you to use the comment facility to leave suggestions as to what I should download for a super scary DJ set. Stevie's already said Thriller, so you can' t have that. Ta!
Posted by biondino at September 22, 2002 05:42 PMJack The Ripper by Morrissey always scares the shit out of me. Not sure how appropriate it is for a club though....
Posted by: Maddie Minx on September 23, 2002 11:10 AMHow about Bowie - "Scary Monsters / Super Freaks" etc. etc.
Personally I would just play the theme tune to the film for 4 hours, with occasional scratchy noises and "uhm-yeahs" ....
Why, 'Creatures of the Night' by Mis-Teeq, of course. Or 'Peek-A-Boo' by Daphne & Celeste, if only for the bit in which they claim Tom Cruise is an undead zombie bloodsucker.

Posted by: Stevie on September 24, 2002 06:03 PMOh! And 'Things that go bump in the nite' by that STARStreet band (were they called Allstars or something?). And! The Zombies! And 'Jeepster' by T-Rex ("Girl I'm just a vampire for your love... I WANNA SUCK YOU!")! And! 'There's a ghost in my house' by The Fall!
Please don't play anything Rocky Horror-ish. Or 'Monster Mash'.
