“Familiar” by Agnes Obel
Why: Agnes Obel uses piano that tip toes ominously around raspy vocals and a cocktail of other elements (such as cello and violin) that sound like they've been bred from deep in the woods; feels fitting for halloween. She uses the trautonium - a popular instrument of the 1920s whose crystalline sounds feel reminiscent to that of glass, which she had custom-made and shipped across Germany to create this album "Citizens of Glass."more on the album: https://www.theguardian.com/music/2016/oct/17/agnes-obel-its-called-a-trautonium-and-it-can-electrocute-people
The Wolfman, “The Den,” Saturdays @ 2 p.m.
“The Killing Moon” by Echo & The Bunnymen
Why: “Years ago I watched Donnie Darko for the first time, I thought not only was it the coolest movie concept I had ever seen but I also thought it had the greatest soundtrack ever. It’s how I discovered my love for Joy Division and also how I fell in love with this song. Since then, I have always played this song when getting ready for a Halloween party, something about it just reminds me of Halloween’s cool and mystical vibe.”
Soirée Gun, Saturdays @ 4 p.m.
“Werewolf” (1960) by The Frantics
