Omg, we're back again....!!!!! On our first Halloween episode, Lesley and Jeff try to figure out how a song like the Backstreet Boys'  "Everybody" can be so strongly associated with Halloween. But can you discuss Halloween music without talking about "Thriller?"  We think not!!! We talk chromatics, dissonance and using simple bass lines as key features in creating a leading "scary sound."  Other chilling examples include John Carpenter's "Halloween main theme song" Hitchcock's "Psycho" and we might still throw in some Katy Perry. Terrifying!!!!!  Also Discussed  - Clive Caulder - Barry Weiss - Jive Records - Denniz PoP - Marilyn Manson - Alanis Morrisette  - Hitchcock - John Carpenter - 787 Coffee ( East village )
