That Filthy Shit

Fabio Frizzi – Zombie Theme

Fabio Frizzi “Theme from Zombie” OST 45 on East (Japan)

Seems like most people I know have seen Lucio Fulci’s 1979 zombie masterpiece “Zombie” aka “Zombi 2″ aka “Zombie Flesh Eaters” and
aka “Sanguelia” but if you haven’t, I can’t recommend it enough. One thing you’ll love immediately is the fantastic main theme
composed by Italian soundtrack maestro Fabio Frizzi. The track is a mesmerizing combination of synths, Arp and programmed drums. The
entire soundtrack has never been released on an LP. This Japanese-pressed 45 is the only way you can get the theme on vinyl, and it is tough to turn up. What’s worse is they picked the absolute worst song from the soundtrack for the flip. That is too bad because
there are several nice squelchy zombie-fied synth tracks on the rest of the soundtrack. Enjoy this one though.

Groop – Voodoo Sitar

Groop “Voodoo Sitar” 7″ on Ace of Disks

Groop only put out a few 45s and one was on Stark Reality. This track features some psyched-out sitar work, a big analogue groove and some buried ethereal vocals. Too bad these guys didn’t put out more stuff.

Boards of Canada – Sixtyniner

Boards of Canada “Sixtyniner” from the Twoism EP on Warp

BoC are like modern-day Pink Floyd with hip-hop drums. The Hobo calls them “perfect stoner music”. I concur. Maybe you’ll think posting something obvious like this might be a waste of your time but you might change your mind when the drums hit. They are large.

Three Sinister Syllables – Doom Tribute

Pro Celebrity Golf and Jay Glaze “Doom Tribute/Track 3″ from Three Sinister Syllables on Chopped Herring

2004 cut-and-paste bonanza of Euro-breaks, regular breaks and fantastic TV and movie snippets. I still listen to this one regularly. It is in the upper echelon of mixes. The near-8-minute tribute to MF Doom features many filthy nuggets. Never pressed on vinyl to my knowledge, cd only.
