Halloween Edition 2008 v1 - a podcast by Keith a.k.a. K j A M

As we move closer to the end of October and deeper into autumn, everyone's favorite time of the year to get freaky is just around the corner.  Of course, I'm talking about Halloween.  It's a time of chills and thrills and the opportunity for many to live out their fantasies, if only for one night.  Frankly, I've never been one to get all excited about dressing up for the occasion.  I'm not really sure why; but, it sure is fun to go out to the bars and check everyone out in their wildest costumes.  I think the last time I dressed up was some years ago when I came home from college and went out with some friends to one of the new bars that had just opened up.  My friend Tery was bartending that night and he and his partner were dressed up as Captain Kirk and Lieutenant O'Whora!  The Lieutenant had strapped on a Dolly Parton size bra and filled it with these humongous water balloons.  She'd be behind the bar just shaking those things as fast as she could whip up a Cosmo.  Another friend Robbie dressed up as a prince (flawless considering he had his housekeeper sew it for him) and Steve and Eloy a couple who owned a high-end salon, dressed up as matching honey bees, also handmade and ingenious if not cute.  I was wearing a brand new purple Axis shirt that I had bought in Dallas just before coming down, some black Girbauds, and black leather lace up casual sneakers (I forget what the brand was, not that it matters) that I picked up at my dad's store earlier in the day.  When asked what I was, I simply stated that I came as a grape.  The first response was "honey, we already knew that because you lost your cherry a long, long time ago"!  I kinda expected that one, but not over and over again all night.  I left by midnight and went clubbing in Mexico with some friends.  Good thing I did, because that was the night of the infamous stripper squatting on a bottle of Bud.  The place got raided and was shut down for good.  Glad I missed out on that one!  Now, I'm not telling you this story to bum you out on Halloween, go out and have fun, be yourself or better yet, be whoever you want to be, just don't carry it over into work as they may not appreciate that side of you.  You better believe I'll be checking out all the freaks on Friday!  I wouldn't miss it for the world.

So here it is...my first Halloween Edition since starting this blog.  Actually, my first in a long time, since last year I did a Fall Edition and the year before was my Decadence Edition in place of Halloween.  I've loaded it with all sorts of goodies for my kiddies.  While the first two mixes lean heavily towards the Circuit crowd, I wouldn't discount them too quickly.  There are some real gems in here and you never know when you might find a treat.  Let's face it, you'll treasure your treats longer than that trick you end up regretting the next day.  By the end of the second mix, you'll see that it takes a different direction which carries on into the third mix (the one I think everyone will be all over).  Ultimately, you get a lot tribal and progressive mixed in with some funky, electro, mainstream and even a trance number at the end.  Overall, I'm really proud of the final outcome and worked really hard putting this together for you guys, so I hope you enjoy it as much as I did making it.

I'll be dispensing a new mix every other day until Thursday.  That should give everyone planning their Halloween events enough time to digest the music and decide if that will be your soundtrack for that fabulous party you're going to throw.  You know, the one where anyone that's someone WILL be attending.  I hope everyone had a great weekend and I'll be back on Tuesday with take 2 of the mix...until then, ENJOY!
