Here is the "10th" Anniversary special of the Deuce Project. Note that 10th is in quotations. The fact of the matter is that I truly cannot remember when the Deuce Project first aired on WIDR. I have old recordings that date back to 1999, but it is entirely possible that the show is a year (or maybe two?) older than that.

Unbeknownst to any of you that know the show only through podcasts, or only through the last few years, the show has had quite a few generations of hosts. Heck, we were even cancelled once because a higher up didn't "get" the show.

While I have always been around, I've had the amazing opportunity to share the airwaves with a variety of co-hosts, each leaving a notable mark on how the show sounds today.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to all of the following, without whom the show would not exist today:

Sensor-72

Space Siren

R-Vector 9

Before getting into the play list, I have to give props to the following sites where I did get turned on to some of the tracks below:

First up *gasp* Music for Maniacs. The "Madam Dracula" track came from the Zombie Jamboree mix posted over there. Definitely worth a listen.

Next, the immortal Funky 16 Corners is to thank for the Souls Unlimited track "Raving Vampire pt. 1" If you dig good soul music, look no further.

Also, the always entertaining Probe is Turning-On the People is to thank for Hey Leroy (Creature from the Black Lagoon), though I cannot remember just WHICH session it is on the site. You might as well go and scour them all I guess...

Also, while I'm not certain I pulled anything from there for this mix, Rock Is Dead R.I.P. has had some of the best Halloween mixes around for the past month. You owe it to yourself to regularly check this site out if you enjoy surf guitar or anything reverb related.

And now the show!

Halloween Mixes The Net Taught Us

It is that time of year again. Halloween is tomorrow. The Deuce Project "Society of the Spooktacle 2009" special airs tomorrow at 7pm EST. You can stream it by going here and hitting up 89.1 WIDR's webstream at the appropriate time.

However, there have been some good Halloween mixes that are already out there that we think you may enjoy:

The wonderful Music For Maniacs has a Caribean Halloween mix which should get the ghouls' toes tappin: http://musicformaniacs.blogspot.com/2009/10/dread-dread-dread-dead-dead-dead.html

Also, Fever Ray has released a Halloween Mix on Resident Adviser that is quite good. If you want to download it without registering on RA, then click here.

Fever Ray scooped us on a few of our Halloween picks for Society of the Spooktacle. We ALWAYS play Jad and David Fair's Monster Songs, and by coincidence, Fever Ray also chose one of the Bruce Haack tracks we are planning on presenting. This worries us that you Earthlings may be hacking into our systems. If evidence is found, expect worldwide retribution when the invasion hammer drops.

Also, many of the fine music blogs you see to the right have special Halloween posts. Show them some love and make with the clicky.

That said. Happy Halloween earthlings. Tune in tomorrow for the show!

I can't say I'm a huge fan of the actual rapping, but the backing beats and visuals are really cool.
Yes...I'm making up for being lazy with the podcast by posting link content.

Halloween Fun

I was just surfing around a bit and came across a great blog with a LOT of fun Halloween stuff (music, videos, etc...) Enjoy!
