Hope to haunt at nine



I forgot to be clever
I forgot to be smart
But I remembered poor Lovecraft
And so that's half a start

He came to us from New England
He lived up on the East Coast
And the dream that he had in a big spooky house
Are the dreams that we remember most.

Halloweekend at Velvet: October 26-27

Halloweekend at Velvet: October 26-27


A chill fog rolls in from the sea, and a sound pierces the night...

Is it music?

You pull your coat tight to your throat and walk through the trees.

What kind of music? Jazz? Indie? Darkwave?

Something dark swirls around you and you realize, with a start, where you are.

It's the Velvet's Halloweekend-—two days of music from SL's most deranged minds—-and you may not make it back...unchanged.

Horror Disco

The impact of b-movies was always a challenge for musicians to create scores of stylish doom anthems or songs that chills your spine at its best or at least makes you have a really fun time listening to it.
Young musicians /producers/label mates and owners Vercetti Technicolor and Antoni Maiovvi have been burning their braincells with tons of horror movies and their soundtracks especially from from the movie genre Giallo. As their Giallo Disco label press release describes :
«..specialize in a strange niche of electronic music, known as Horror Disco. Specially crafted atmospheric, cinematic dance music taking influence from Italo Disco, Krautrock, New Beat, EBM, House, Techno and most importantly the film scores of the 70s and 80s (think Argento's Tenebrae, Fulci's Zombie and John Carpenter's Escape From New York...»
    They own a ton of vintage electronic machines which they use to produce music inspired and sounding like a new,updated less murky/more enjoyable and easy to dance to Start listening from here and I am pretty sure that you'll be attracted to all their individual works....
Chrisodd and Myrdin Sommer will bring those sounds among other Haloween and horror inspired ,electronic,goth and rock  tunes merged with a powerful light show  and suspense, as a part of THE VELVET's great weekend tribute to HALOWEEN,on Saturday the 26th of October 2013 between 3 and 4 pm slt ! Ready to feel chilled ?

Another Proggy Night

King Crimson
What surprised me most about my first night spinning at the Velvet was the number of people who said to me, "I've never heard this kind of music before." I still don't understand how that's possible, but SOMETHING MUST BE DONE! Therefore it's time to put all the other stuff away and serve up another heaping helping of the whimsical, flamboyant, over-the-top flappery that is progressive rock. This Friday, 7-9pm SL, expect more from the likes of King Crimson, EL&P, Yes, Spock's Beard, Gentle Giant, Jethro Tull and much more. I do hope to see you there.

We start casting at nine



Now, beneath that waxy moon,
Add garlic, clove, bay leaf, mandrake...
Then throw in a dash of tunes,
Add some dear friends. That's all it takes.
And you will find out pretty soon
What kind of fun we all can make.

"That boy ain't right...." at nine



Oh, the Kindred and the Garou can be friends
Yes, the Kindred and the Garou can be friends
One is gonna bleed ya
And the other just might eat ya
But, the Kindred and the Garou can be friends.....

Dead and undead dance at nice



Halloween! It's coming soon
With all its parties and parades
So, it's quite safe to presume
We'll have ghouls and other shades....
