ÀÏ·ò×Ó´«Ã½

With spooky season finally here, we celebrate the most wonderful time of year with a super creepy mix of tracks from our favorite horror film scores. We've got The Shining from Wendy Carlos and Rachel Elkind, Mica Levi's dizzying (and completely unnerving) score to Under the Skin, Cristobal Tapia De Veer's bonkers sound design for Smile and more.
