About the Halloween songs on this album....

The first track, 'Party Like Its Halloween', is has a party beat sound with some heavy keyboards underlying the melody.

The second track, 'Halloweenie, is a humerous satire on individuals that don't particularily enjoy Halloween. They turn off their porch light and try to avoid the trick-or-treaters.

The third track, 'Howlin Halloween', is a great song to sing or 'howl' along too. it will have you howlin all night long.

The fourth track, 'Costume Party' is all about the funny, cool, scary, sexy, and spooky costume we all see at Halloween costume parties.

The fifth track, 'Spooky, Spooky, Spooky', talks about all the scary sounds and things we might hear on Halloween night.

The sixth track, 'If I Were A Goblin' contemplates what life would be if we were a Goblin.

The seventh track 'Monster Mash' is a new rendition and take off the Original Halloween Classic Song. It satires a Monster asking a human to dance and falling in love with the human while the human feels differently.

These are 7 of the 13 tracks off the album. The last two tracks are Halloween sound effects that can be played on porches for trick or treaters or for background effects to Halloween parties.

This album, for me, was sooooo fun to create. Unlike other songs, you have a little more liberty on Halloween Songs. You can use chords you don't typically use. They can sound creepy and cool in the same song. That is exactly what I tried to achieve. For example, the melody might sound scary with dissonant chords and then the chorus comes in and changes the sound and feeling of the song.
