Today we’re bringing you something a little different than a straight up podcast. Instead we’re harking back to the days of mix tapes. And to start us off on this new/old tradition, a very special Halloween mix by our very own Moody, enjoy!

The name of the show comes from when me and my buddies would make up metal song names using a medical dictionary to basically say gory things, but in a scientific way. You know, cuz it’s metal to be smart. Anyway, turn it up and rock the fuck out!

This time we’ve got a bit of a special treat: a little house mix by our very own Moody in PDX.

Some folks have wondered what software we all use to make our podcasts, and while some of the other DJs I know have dabbled in Apple’s Garageband (which is dead simple and recommended), I’ve tried to keep it a bit purest and use software that allows me to mix live. In other words, the podcasts you hear, I did in real time. No dragging and dropping tracks over here! That said, Moody used the same software to mix together some house tracks. The software we use is called Djay and is the best all digital DJing software I’ve been able to find. Definitely something you should check out if you’re interested in DJing but don’t want to lug around records.

But enough of that!

That’s why this time around, turkeydinner will be served with some orchestrated jazz. What it was, is and has become. The whole lot.

Like a lot of jazz coming out these days, some of the very best stuff is no longer coming out of the United States anymore. That’s why you’re going to hear some stuff from Germany, France and the UK. But here is one group that while from the very core of the US, gets more radio play overseas than here. They are the Hypnotic Brass Ensemble out of Chicago and they are not to be missed or ignored. YouTube has a plethora of videos and street performances. Here’s one I fancy:

One of their tracks is in today’s podcast as well as many other great works. So sit back and relax and let these songs smooth your summer blues away…

For those of you in the know, I’ve just started this whole music show thing up again over here. Like Glenda said, I was missing all the fun I had blowing off school and doing a DJ show down in San Diego for KSDT. Back then, we didn’t actually broadcast on the air, since we were too close to the border*, but we did have a cable access show and we streamed live over the internet with — get this — RealAudio!

Ah, those were the days. I still have some of those shows on tape. Cassette tape.

But back to the matter at hand. For the inaugural CraneKick-flavored turkeydinner we’re going to talk about love. Yes, love. Ah, love. Oh damn, love? Really?

Yes, really. But not all love songs are sappy. I’ll give you a sample of some of the rougher, dancier and more groovin’ love songs out there. Enjoy!

Once again, the two flavors:

• The first is your standard MP3, which is down below, at the end of this post. (If you’re reading this in a feed reader, then obviously this information doesn’t so much apply!) It can be previewed and played right here on this web page, or downloaded for your amusement at the link under the embedded player.
• The second, which you’ve probably cruised by already if you’ve gotten down to this part of the post thus far, is above in a video box. That video box is an iTunes enhanced M4A file, with thumbnails and links and the whole nine. It too can be downloaded at the link below the box, or you can preview and play the whole thing above. (However, I suppose if you’ve played the file in the box already up there, then you’ve already figured that part out.)

The photo above is awesome. Also, it’s a promo photo I found of Moloko. They broke up so they can’t stop us.

* In the U.S. of A., non-commercial radio is designated to the bands lower than 92.1 FM. In the U.S. of Mexico, the non-commercial bands are above 92.1 FM. But since radio waves don’t care about international borders, evil American radio companies (slingers of one-hit wonders and massive advertising) go down Mexico way and buy up all the low bands, effectively creating a blanket of commerical only radio over the whole San Diego area. Sad, really.
