So many people have been talking about this song. I decided to take a look today, and I think I just had an eargasim. I think I will check out your music more often!

Dang dj striden! Get famous already! I can't believe that you aren't a big name guy! Please put another album on iTunes while you're at getting famous. Hahaha!

This is what I waited all week for (when I say waited I mean waited)! Amazing music

WHY DIDN'T I SEE THIS EARLIER!!! 3:00 Is really freaking creepy. Nice job. The voices can be herd better than before. I always like to give constructive criticism, so I would think about giving this a more cryptic feel to it. Experiment with diminish chords and minor chord, and all that fun stuff (But hey, I don't crap about music, so I may have just said one of the most dumbass things that you have herd of all time) But yeah, still amazing. 4/5

aaronmusslewhite responds:

Not not at all. I used a lot more dissonant chord structures in the previous version for sure. But there are dim chords in this... and its pretty much all minor haha.

For this version I tried to keep my Elfman influence at a minimum cuz I didn't want to just recreate the same song and when I made Halloweenstep my idea going in was "What if someone made an Elfman-esque dubstep track.... yeah let's do that!"

I made a pretty creppy video too if you wanna check that out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKr7oWsjaVQ

Thanks for the review! Hope your halloween was spoopy and awesome! :D

My jaw dropped to the floor when I herd this. Holy crap. I still don't understand how you make songs every week.

2,677 plays, 731 Downloads.... 1 (now 2) reviews.... Wow. dang, newgrounds makes so much sense. Anyways, I love the song! I think it flowed nicely. The only complaint I have is at 1:20 you put a synth and a drum- like sound at the same exact time. I wasn't too fond of what the result was. I personally don't like the way it sounded. 4/5

Barzoom responds:

Hey! Thanks for the review, haha. That gimmick at 1:20 was just some random stuff I was sprinkling around so it didn't sound so empty. It could definitely work without it but yeaaah. Whatever makes the song sound more disturbing and unsettling may or may not be better :D.

Nice use of the synths and the pads to create an eerie chill! 1:22 was awesome! I would have preferred the ending to have more a loud booming and chaotic ending, but that is just my opinion. Well, 5/5

lol

This is the first song by you. I have seen your username from time to time but I wasn't that interested. Today I think that will change. This song is amazing. I think the slide that you use to your notes makes this stand out in a good way. I would just like to ask for questions about music in general... if you don't mind. I am just a kid who is interested into music, and more importantly how to make it. How long did it take you to learn music theory. What programs you use? Lastly, how do you make an impression on the internet? Sorry, I just think that if you want to learn, you have to hear form the best. Thanks!

May I ask what chord porgression this was? I love the ripple effect with the notes. I love the way you compose music. This feels so happy. You are able to create a mood with music that is a skill that is hard to master. Nice! I would have loved the drums just be a tad bit louder. But everything else is perfect.

SpeTheof responds:

Thanks :D

WOW! I love this song. Every aspect captures the cryptic theme of halloween. But... sometimes I can't hear what the words in the song are. Could you possibly reply what the lyrics are on this? Thanks. This is a great song nonetheless. ~This was added to one of my favorite songs~

aaronmusslewhite responds:

Thanks glad you liked it! I'm planning on doing another halloween type song for halloween this year as well :D.

The words are just samples from various horror movies, dawn of the dead and other stuff. I got it all linked together in a long various horror movie sample.

THe creepy voices in the second build is from a mark twain cartoon for kids, you can search 'creepy mark twain cartoon' to find it

I'm a composer for film, animation and video games. If you need any music, sound design, or voice acting feel free to reach out.
