i've been working on the music i'm going to play at the halloween party. as it's halloween, i was thinking goth/industrial with a couple of halloween standards such as "monster mash". as it's likely to be a slightly older (than me) crowd and definitely not people familiar with goth/industrial, i am heavily leaning it towards 1980s new wave and kroq-ish songs. i have whittled it down to 101 songs, or 6.8 hours of music, which is much more than i need. i have tried to keep it to mostly one song per artist, two songs max. there are exceptions for a couple bands that i either like a lot or think the mood of the music is perfect for halloween or both.
