GHOST HOLE

HEY GUYS

I have lots of important news to relay and things are getting really exciting but for a second I would like to talk about GHOST HOLE, the Halloween art show my roommate and fantastic super friend Vanessa Rieger curates every year. It is happening again this year at Artscape Gibraltar Point on Toronto Island, and I am very excited to be a participating artist, doing a two week artist residency for my Ghost Hole project, and be on the committee of organizers for this magical event.

In celebration of the season and also for the sake of making a compilation of spooky jams to listen to during those dark, late nights in the studio, here is my Ghost Hole Mix 'Tape.' A mish mash of stuff from my vinyl and what's leftover on my laptop after the Great Computer Crash of 2010 that I've never fully recovered from, I bring you a small collection of creepy tunes guaranteed to bring out the heebie jeebies. Hey guys and ghouls, you slimers, you ghostly visions of the night, this is your soundtrack for late night walks home, for quiet moments at home working on projects, for long stoned strolls through your local cemetery, your background music for this time when things are becoming darker and stranger, right through to the silent void of winter...
