I NEED SUGAR

Since 2007 I've been putting together playlists of freakishly awful music for Hallowe'en. Sometimes little miracles happen and you get a playlist that's too much fun to ignore. There's usually a combination of minimal, metal, trip hop, industrial, drum'n'bass and anything else I've been able to collect that's good and dark dark.

One of the first things I did when I got my new mixer and was prepping for the I Need Sugar Launch Party, was to pull out the 2008 Halloween mix and get a little dirty with the minimal tracks in the playlist. I made a short promo mix of about 40 minutes which wasn't too bad, but now I've got a mix of the rest of those 2008 tracks with such a tremendously large amount of screaming in it, it needs to be shared out straightaway. Enjoy!
