Another remix of deep cuts from my crates of old Simpsons episode LPs and highly recognizable bits and bites from the original motion picture soundtrack for the 1986 cult-classic horror-thriller Churchville’s Purgatorio. (As with the last two installments, be advised that big bass demands big headphones.)

Beats per Week #07: “Radiation” (heads-up @johnchurchville )
Another club-banger remixed from the soundtrack to the 1986 low-budget horror-thriller Churchville’s Purgatorio. (As with last week’s installment—also remixed from the original score to Churchville’s Purgatorio—be advised that big bass demands big headphones.)
Beats per Week #06: “The Flautist is Suffering” (for @johnchurchville )

Beats per Week #05: “In the Celestial Monastery (ii)”
Beats per Week installment number five, with another deep cut from the limited U.S. release of the 1994 film In the Celestial Monastery.

Beats per Week #02: More Music from THE NOCTURNAL (original soundtrack)
Man Plays Dope-Ass “Smooth Criminal” on a Barrel Organ in a Wood Pile
Stick with it past; the breakdown around the 3min mark takes this from schtick to rad-as-fuckyeah!
Beats per Week #01: Music from THE NOCTURNAL (original soundtrack)
Given my level of ethnic paranoia I’m sorta shocked . . .
. . . that it never dawned on me that the dwarves in Snow White, etc., are Jews—especially because I was already familiar with this and this and a slew of earlier print sources (see e.g., the “Lead” section of Primo Levi’s The Periodic Table, Richard Wagner’s descriptions of Jews, etc.) as well as stuff like this, and so on.
Anyway, just no idea where my game was at for this one to have given me the slip for four decades.
