Toepincher- I highly recommend The Phantom of the Organ produced by Electric Lemon records. Written by Vern Langdon this album has been around since the early 70's. It's now available on cd. I still treasure my copy I purchased from the Captain Company from Famous Monsters of Filmland magazines. Here is the link. The album is at the bottom of the page. http://electriclemon.com/records.htm...0cbbb5496714c3

Hit your local Tower Records, look for Michael Murray (artist) playing the organ at The First Congregational Church in Los Angeles, it is all classic Bach, including Tocatta and Fugue in D Minor, the recording is spectacular, the pipe organ is massive and the natural acoustics are magnificant. This is so good it will make the hairs on your arms and neck(s) stand up. Also, check out your local public library, they usually have a fair collection of stuff on CD, and you may find just what you are looking for there.
By the way, there are still royalties to the performing artists and record companies even if the composer is no longer with us. Piracy is theft and theft is not cool.

If you want to use Sweeney Todd, look for the Cd of it live in concert or rent the DVD or something like that. It has the extended version of the organ solo.

the organ music i play in my living room at almost blistering levels (to hear it out the window as ambiance, then i open the door for the TOT's) is the foyer organ from the haunted mansion at disney. i can email you the mp3 if you'd like. i also have a version with cemetary bells and the classic wolf cry on it. all optional. PM me if you'd like it. anyone else for that matter too.

Smile An idea for you

If you have a Cd burner on your machine, here's a way to make some fairly spooky & original stuff!

First off, find some 'regular' classical style organ music (can find them sometimes at thrift stores). Copy the music onto your hard drive, save the music in wav format to you desktop, then take each song one at a time and decrease the speed by 25% to 75% using your windows sound recorder (standard with windows OS).

If you want, though I don't know the legalities on this, you can take voice recordings and mix them with the music, also slowing them down by about 25% (any more than 25% and it might not sound right).

Slowing the music down will make it sound way creepy... you can also add an echo effect with sound recorder, too. But don't overdo that or it'll just be annoying.

Trust me, this makes an incredible effect! I've used this method with flash loops and voice recordings to create some killer music and effects.

Once you've created your music and sounds you'll have to convert the wav files back to mp3 to play on your machine---as long as your player handles mp3 you're fiine.

Good luck!

Thanks ahead for any help.

Two of my favourites are "Deathmarch of the Marionettes" and "Danse Macabre"

and then there is that "The Worms Crawl in...The Worms Crawl Out" one that we

all learn as kids? Hope this helps!

I agree with Bach -- Amazon actually has a couple CDs of spooky Bach music (you can search under Halloween and Bach).

If you want some lyrics, though, check out the Voodoo Organist (I found it on Amazon, too). Very weird...some dirge-like, some kinda peppy...makes my neck hairs prickle.
