TRENDMIX: BLOODY GOOD

Trendland’s Halloween mixtape, Bloody Good

A howling wind bursts through a haunted house, blowing open a squeaky door separating the helpless protagonist and Halloween‘s Michael Myers. Cue the music. Cue the senses. What stimulates fear in any lovable horror movie, or any film for that matter, is the soundtrack. It is music alongside visuals that evokes mirrored audience emotions of a story’s characters or climaxes.

It’s why dark, dramatized church organs are associated more with Dracula than Sunday morning.

Bloody Good is a bit of the dark, eerie sounds you might expect to hear on this spooky holiday, and in most of your favorite screamer flicks of the season. As some of these dance-tastic tracks imply, we mustn’t forget that this day is also dedicated to the love of pranks, trick-or-treating, and dressing in disguise! Have a killer day, and enjoy the tunes. READ MORE
