The Vampires of Dartmoore - Dracula's Music Cabinet (1969)

Hello everybody. It's been awhile since I've checked in with my blog. I've noticed a lot of comments about problems with Zshare links. So for those of you who have been requesting updated links or reposts, I'm working on that. Sorry to keep you waiting so long. I know how crappy it is when you search for something forever, and come across it only to find a dead link. So, I've been updating my posts with Mediafire links. I hope that works for you all. All the links that have been updated should read "NEW LINK!" in the title post. So thanks for everyone who's been downloading my mixes etc.. It's always nice to get some feed back.

Anyway, Enough business for now. I realized I haven't posted anything new in a while, so here is a record I hope you will enjoy (and don't already have). I got inspired to post it when I was reposting the Vampires Sound Incorporation record (Amazing!) Here is another Vampire themed German band that oddly came out the same year as the Vampires Sound Incorporation... 69 Erotic Year (sorry, I couldn't resist). I don't know much about them really, but I've read things here and there. Supposedly, they were one of those bands made up of all studio musicians and the album was intended to be a Soundtrack (but it never happened). At least that's what I've heard. Feel free to post some info in the comments if you know anything about it. Anyway, the music is pretty interesting actually. Similar to the Vampyros Lesbos sound, but more of a lo-fi Sven Libaek thing happening. All the tracks are pretty psychedelic with lots of overdubbed sound effects for an over all more dramatic horror/halloween type of vibe. I still think it sort of belongs in the realm of the mondo cocktail cinema grooves type of stuff though (rather than spooky holiday records). Check it out, it's pretty entertaining and has an unusual sound quality. 192 Kbps. Just over a half hour...

Enjoy your horror TRIP!

NEW LINK! VA - "Psych-Out" (A Full Spectrum Trip Compiled By The Cowboys From Sweden)

Pretty self explanatory... An new compilation put together by the Cowboys from Sweden. This one emphasizes mostly on break beats, psychedelic atmospheres and dramatic themes from films and library records (mostly Italian with the exception of a few tracks). I guess this one was sort of inspired by our recent record spinning sets at local Portland bars, at least it's somewhat reflective of our (Robbie and myself) live sets... Not much more I can say about it. It's all pretty up-beat and funky and would make a great party soundtrack. I actually went through the trouble to make a front and back cover for those of you who are into this kind of stuff... Dig in!

Tracks:
01 Bruno Nicolai/Skyscrapers (Version 3)
02 Manfred Hübler & Siegfried Schwab/We Don't Care
03 Ennio Morricone/Quattro Mosche Di Velluto Grigio

Alessandro Alessandroni & Nora Orlandi - Music For Strange Situations (2003)

Here is some crazy stuff by soundtrack gurus Alessandro Alessandroni & Nora Orlandi. The title of this comp definitely fits the sound. Alessandroni is best know for his whistling work with Ennio Morricone, but apparently he has made around 50 soundtracks and other albums himself. Alessandroni is a fuzztone guitar virtuoso, and many of his psychedelic moods can be found here on this album. The tracks alter between the two Italian composers throughout the mix and take us deep into strange moods, psychedelic atmospheres, cocktail party jams and eerie choir arrangements. There isn't really any filler on this disc if you ask me, both of these composers are very edgy and keep things fresh and spooky. Happy listening!!

Tracks:
1. Spiagge Azzurre (Alessandro Alessandroni)
2. The Bondage Suite # 4 (Orlandi/Ormi)
3. Cielo Verde (Alessandro Alessandroni)
4. Vocalisation (Alessandro Alessandroni)
5. The Bondage Suite # 2 (Orlandi/Ormi)
6. Aliante Giallo (2a Versione) (Alessandro Alessandroni)
7. The Bondage Suite # 3 (Orlandi/Ormi)
8. Arioso Spirituale (Alessandro Alessandroni)
9. Aliante Giallo (Alessandro Alessandroni)

NEW LINK! The Vampires' Sound Incorporation - Psychedelic Dance Party (1969)

Now here is a strange record put out on the Mercury Label in 1969 by two German Composers, Manfred Hübler and Siegfried Schwab. Although this album wasn't technically a soundtrack, the music was used in the Jess Franco film "Vampyros Lesbos" (which I understand was quite terrible). The music is pretty over the top psychedelic cocktail jazz/funk with a vampiric theme, kind of hokey, but none the less fun to listen to... Track three seems to be a spoof on the Rolling Stones song "Satisfaction". This would make a great soundtrack for a cocktail party, and a good edition to your eurotrash library...

Serge Gainsbourg - Cannabis (1969)

This is the score to Pierre Koralnik's 1969 film Cannabis. The film was titled "French Intrigue" (also "The Mafia Wants Your Blood") for the US release. Not only did Serge Gainsbourg compose the soundtrack (in collaboration with Jean-Claude Vannier), he also starred in the film with his wife Jane Birkin. This is one of my favorite of Gainsbourg's soundtracks, full of amazing grooves, break-beat drums, harpsichord, huge guitar riffs and funky bass lines. The film it's self was pretty slow and kind of corny actually, but worth it to see Serge shooting up gangsters with a tommy gun in an enormous chicken coop. The music is much better than the film. It's definitely worth the download....

Also, this 2003 reissue includes the soundtrack to the 1967 film "Ce Sacre Grand-Pere" or "The marriage came tumbling down" which Gainsbourg co-wrote with Michel Colombier. I haven't seen this film, so I won't try and fake my way through a review. Musically however, the soundtrack is not as funky as Cannabis, but has some very nice moments and some dark and pretty instrumentals. A bit more orchestral, but still has the Gainsbourg touch. Beautiful.

Don George - Mr. Romance (2004)

Awesome... This is singer/actor Don George's album "Mr. Romance". Don George happens to be my band mate Robbie Augspurger's grandfather and all around good guy. This is a karaoke album Mr. George cut back in 2004 at a professional recording studio. The songs are mostly covers of Sinatra, Ray Charles, stuff like that. Stuff he likes to sing. Don had a cold when he recorded this, so he claims that it's not his best work, but it sure has a lot of character... He also claims that he is a 9000 year old dracula. Just kidding, that's not true, I made that part up. The music is Don's voice backed by expensive midis. Not sure there is anything else I can say about it. Cool, I'm glad I posted this.

Track Listing:
1. Stranger In The Night
2. I've Got You Under My Skin
3. Georgia On My Mind
4. You Are So Beautiful To Me
5. After The Lovin'
6. That Summer Wind
7. Angel Flying Too Close To The Ground
8. For The Good Times
9. That's Life
