Friday May 21st at 7PM, Turntabling will have a table full of obscure and rare goodies at the zombie film festival TERROR IN THE AISLES 4: UNDEAD BY DAWN at Chicago’s legendary Portage Theatre.
Don’t miss this one, as it features a midnight screening of Lucio Fulci’s ZOMBIE, a Turntabling favorite. Complete details below–join us for all the fun and bring your vinyl LP carrying bag–you’ll NEED IT!
Here are the gory details I promised earlier about the Chicago Horror Society birthday bash, Zombie Disco. I’ll be DJing this on Saturday June 20th at the Viaduct Theatre. Admission is a mere ten bucks for all the undead fun you could ever want, plus Italian horror movie soundtrack sounds mega-mixed with disco and other craziness. Expect to hear Goblin mashed up with Daft Punk, Lipps Inc, the Cramps, Morricone mashed up with Aphex Twin, James Brown and Paisley Babylon.
Check the flyer for all the deets and don’t forget to wear your zombie makeup!
This 12 inch by Funki Porcini is one of my favorite pieces of vinyl. Inspired by (and sampled from) the Lucio Fulci undead classic Zombie, Funki Porcini’s 12 inch opens with the last thing you hear in the movie–the hambone radio announcer’s newscast. “I’ve just been informed that zombies have entered the building. They’re at the door! YEARRRRRGHHHH!”
Priceless.
This album is a great collection of beats. Perfect for chilled out late night listening with the lights turned down to “seduce” and the atmosphere on “bachelor pad”. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED…if you can find it, that is. And sorry, my copy is NOT for sale.
A completely UNRELATED clip by Funki Porcini here, this is just as atmospheric and cool, and the vid is excellent as well:
