Night Clerk Radio: Haunted Music Reviews

October Kinda Sorta Spooky New Music!

Episode Summary

It’s time for October new music. In this episode, we mostly sort of hit the mark of having spooky haunted music for the spookiest of months. First up, we have a love letter to the synth tunes of 80s science fiction and fantasy media from Belbury Poly. Then, we dig into Dave Clarkson’s exploration of mourning and loss by way of abandoned locations around the British Isles. Both provide a unique hauntological look at our past. Grab a bucket of your favorite candy and check out these albums with us!
