PSYCHOPATHS

Its almost HALLOWEEN! So time for some spooky tunes....

Heres a couple of tunes by the Psychopaths, both of which featured in my Halloween mix that you can download here.


Nightmares - Not often you come across a tune which is genuinely scary. The children's rhyme at the beginning sets the tone of general spookiness until the music proper kicks in with a very simply layered arrangement, and an absolute KILLER basssline, which twists and snarls aggressivley and just won't leave you alone. The vocals samples are spot on and Freddie's voice seems to dreamily emanate from somewhere below the floorboards. If the Nightmare on Elm Street films shit you up as a kid, then you'll get a real buzz out of dropping this onto an unsuspecting dancefloor. It could be considered a bit camp/kitsch, if it didn't do the job just so damn well......

Killer Mummy - Now this one goes all the way over to camp, but is all the more fun for it. With a really hyper synth line and a surprisingly groovy bassline, this is great for halloween parties or if you want to play some 'fun' horror. The 'time to play!' and 'killer mummy..... don't let her near!' samples are just plain silly. 

Fun tune for fun times. And the record cover is just plain wrong.
