Hysterie



No rhyme or reason - just a mix of library music from my collection that caught my fancy in the past few days.  Some of it is probably somewhat obscure.

I pulled a boner and neglected to write down the tracklist, so I'm going to have to figure it out.  I'll post as soon as I've got it sorted.  If a track catches your fancy, let me know and I'll figure out what it is.  (Said to no one.)
This is fun.



I've been obsessed with hidden messages in music since I was very little and my father scared me shitless by turning the motor off on his turntable and playing Revolution 9 backwards for me.

And just because I like Boards of Canada, though this has nothing to do with possible "secret messages" - it's very well done, especially the 1969 segment:





Happy Cycling.

Program Me!



Part 1.
A fever dream stream-of-consciousness audio of songs for or by children, from Film / TV, children's records, etc. from the 60's, 70's, and 80's.
I'm not even going to attempt a track listing here. If there is something you hear and would like to know what it is, let me know and I can tell you.

There will be a second part eventually.
