Episode 238: 10/29/2023 - The 2023 Halloween Hellshow
This show was supposed to be both our Halloween show and our return to live radio. However, The Radio Gremlins ruined everything by sabotaging my car and I had to cancel the show. However, I threw together a pre-recorded show because I put too much work into making this playlist for it to go unused and dammit, we’re doing a Halloween show!
We started this show with a “mood setting” block. We followed that with a set of tracks and theme songs from horror movies. The third block was a set of metal tracks, recent and old, referring to or about Halloween. The fourth block was a set of songs about horror movies in general. The fifth block was a set of moody dark ambient and dungeon synth tracks, and we closed the show with a mix of industrial and goth tracks celebrating All Hallow’s Eve. We hope The Great Pumpkin blesses you and that you have a great Halloween—or a nice Tuesday, if you don’t do Halloween.

We played songs by artists that are playing shows in the Central Arkansas area this week in the first block. Then we began the show proper, our dark atmospheric special, with two sets of dark ambient tracks that have a vague space theme. The fourth block was a set of weird, lo-fi experimental tracks. The fifth block was a set of death industrial tracks, then we closed the show with another dark ambient set.
Episode 236: 10/15/2023
We began this show with some darkwave and industrial tracks from new releases. The second block was a set of goth, darkwave, deathrock, industrial, etc. tracks with a theme of curses, jinxes, hexes, etc., because last Friday was a Friday the 13th. The third set was block of synthwave, punk, darkwave, etc. with a theme of hexes, superstition, fortune, and good luck to help break the curse. The fourth and final set was a mix of goth, post-punk, and deathrock tracks.
