Josh, from Nocturne Records, requested a Halloween mix.
At first I was reluctant because I'm not a big fan of dark ambient. I've never really cared for Lustmord records, although I do have "The Place Where Black Stars Hang." While I do have a fair amount of drone music, I don't like dissonant drones.
When I set out to do this mix I wasn't sure what direction it would take. Would it be noisy, scary ambient drones? As I was looking through my music I came across "The Twin Peaks Archive" by David Lynch & Angelo Badalamenti. I thought, now there is some dark-ish music that would be cool to use in a Halloween mix.
It was fun putting this together and I'm looking forward to making this an annual ritual.

Played this today when I was running errands and doing other menial tasks. It made everything super ominous. Great mix. As usual I will be playing it throughout the coming weeks and checking out some of the artists back catalogs. Thanks for putting it together Dave.
Josh,
Thanks so much for the idea! I had fun doing this mix & definitely needed something different & this fit perfectly.
Thanks again!
i dont know were to start, but i have listened to this remix maybe 50 times, first I didn´t get it, but I keept on coming back to it, at airport terminals waiting, on the plane, studying, driving in my car at dusk, and it sets a perfect mindset. so thank you!
Wow, I'm so glad you're digging this mix! Because it was a Halloween mix I kind of forgot about it too quickly. But now, thanks to your reminder, I'm going to give it another listen.
I'm in the middle of writing a ghost story, and this is just what I've been looking for. I came to your site from looking up dub on Mixcloud. So much good stuff, thanks,
Simon.
