Reviews
Solid reissue. CD copy was a nice touch. Give Halloween II a spin at 45RPM and thank me later.
Hits the sweet spot between cheesy and awesome. A bunch of really funky Synthdisco covers, that turn Carpenter's (and in one case Morricone's) classic themes into 80s disco dancefloor bangers! And somehow they don't feel like a desecration of the master's work. They are all a bit more faster, upbeat and four to the floor, but keep the dark synth vibe of the originals. I really recommend that album, even if it's mostly for the novelty factor.
This is a fantastic album that any John Carpenter fan should own. It’s not a JC compilation as I originally thought. These are recreations of John Carpenter scores from The Splash Band. Revamped tracks with a slightly different approach but all TASTEFULLY done! A very enjoyable record and some lesser known tracks that are really great too. Sound quality could use more punch but still good. Five stars across board!
Great album especially if you pitch it down a bit
Don't buy this one if you care to hear the original movie theme's.
On my cover and my record is nothing about Splash Band.
