The Goblin Collection: 1975-1989

233103

Found this collection of Goblin’s work at a thrift last weekend. The Italian prog band never found much success on their own, but were renowned for their work on horror soundtracks for Dario Argento. The group’s keyboard player Claudio Simonetti went on to become a staple of the electronic disco scene. listen

Spankie Hazard ADA Guest Set

Spankie Hazard - NYC_August_2001

Another well crafted soulful mix sent over by Spankie Hazard from Japan by way of Australia. Midnight Vibrations features some lovely springtime sounds. Spankie never fails to impress me with the mixes he sends over, and this is no doubt a testament to that!

Spankie’s mix is available on the WNYU archive as the first part of the show, as well as over at The Late Show in its entirety. Check out the playlist and get to know the man at the latter, which includes an extended interview.

Tackleberry and myself played the second part of the show.
