Our first official "cover-mix": our take on re-envisioning a favorite song in a non-linear lyrical format. Apologies to The Sisters of Mercy who wrote the original :)

Samples from: 
Dark Shadows (series)
A Nightmare on Elm Street (original)
Pirates of the Caribbean 1
The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

Dance the Ghost (2015)

Make sure to turn up volume - we were still getting the hang of overall mixing. 

Apologies to Johnny Cash who wrote the original.

Man Comes Around (2009)

I don't remember where we got the original midi that we messed around with, but it was a fun way to start what we would eventually call "cover-mixing."

Quotes - Edgar Allen Poe & William Shakespeare

Samples from:
Unsolved Mysteries
A Nightmare on Elm Street
Dracula
Halloween: The Curse of Michael Meyers
Curse of the Werewolf
100 Years of Horror

Apologies to Blue Oyster Cult who wrote the original.

Don't Fear (the Reaper) (2009)

This was an example experimental "transition" between cover songs on our first release [Low Budget Karaoke Horror Show]. Once again, the sound level is pretty low so you'll have to turn your speakers up.

If you want an explanation for the title, watch Hammer's Legend of the Seven Golden Vampires and it will all make sense.

Sound-wise, we were shooting for an homage to Hopeful Machines, Monkey Farm Frankenstein, and Lords of Acid. Lofty goal to be sure.

Samples from: 
Queen of the Damned
Vampires: Thirst for the Truth
100 Years of Horror
E-Jay 2.0 Special Edition

Blood Tastes Better Topless (2009)

The closing track of our first release [Low Budget Karaoke Horror Show]. Make sure to turn the volume up. Just remember, the supposedly dead killer will always come back.

You may notice we got really adventurous in this one - you'll hear live percussion involving a djembe, doumbek, and goat toes(!!!).

Samples from:
Stephen King's IT
Halloween: The Curse of Michael Meyers
Reefer Madness/Mindless Self Indulgence's "Shut It Up" video
A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge
Scream
Friday the 13th

See You In The Sequel (2009)

I don't remember where we got the original midi that we messed around with, but this cover was a blast. We even put some live guitar in here as well for the solo.

Samples from:

Apologies to Real Life who wrote the original.

Send Me An Angel (2009)

One of my favorite songs to do in actual karaoke. I don't remember where we got the original midi that we messed around with.

Samples from:
The Vampire Lovers

Apologies to Billy Idol who wrote the original.

Rebel Yell (2009)

A conceptual music video for a cover of Joy Division's "Shadowplay" by three PhDs with a thing for post-punk music. 

Shadowplay (cover)

A mash-up cover of songs by New Order, Joy Division, and The Cure by some PhDs with a thing for post-punk music.

ICB at Night (cover)

Our second official "cover-mix": our take on re-envisioning a favorite song in a non-linear lyrical format. In this case it was a mix of two different songs.

Friday the 13th (original)
