Hi guys, 

This thread reminds me of the "Halloween" tune that I wrote and recorded for my "Moog-Tastic!" CD. Thought I'd share that track.
Lots of Dotcom on this....

I’d also run pre-recorded spooky music tracks that I have composed, and run them thru VCAs... so that the sequencers I used to control and time all of the audio effects would ‘rotate’ and play the various sounds automatically... leaving me free to freak-out, and cause the young-ons to soil their costumes. (I confess to loving the hell out of scaring children and adults, alike...  and with a face like mine....  well...). You can certainly do similar things with smaller systems...  just be creative, and don’t over-do it. Always leave ‘em wanting more.
