Halloween Music 2017

“During the day, I don’t believe in ghosts. At night, I’m a little more open-minded.” ~Unknown

Deep in the vaults of ccMixter lurk hundreds of Halloween songs that will add a certain, shall we say, rotting addition to your scary playlists.  Like grave diggers on a full moon night, you will find what you are looking for, all you have to do is dig.  Dig until you hit the sound that is hollow and cold.  Dig until your bones are creaking.  There is Ghostly music down there.  And all of this haunting music is free to share and download.

Some of the ghouls working for the dark lord have brought us back a few tasty tracks already.   These servants have sacrificed themselves so that you may stream them for free online at TuneTrack.net.  But be careful, the dark lord of ccMixter is cunning, and soon you'll find yourself enslaved to the tunes created here.

There are also mad scientists, musical genius gone awry, making new nightmare songs, Ghost Notes that will rattle the cages of your mind.  This new music pleases our master, though no mercy will ever be shown.

Like Frankenstein was created from pieces and parts, all this haunting music is created from source material uploaded under Creative Commons licenses, scary music is brought to life, stomping around the internet like the monster Mary Shelly created.  Join us and we will rule the world.  Happy Halloween!
