Happy October!

Hi, Fluffsters!

As I mentioned yesterday, I finished up my series on Celebrate Fall. At least for right now.

And now it’s October. This is a fun month! Not only is it National Cyber-Security Awareness Month, it’s also the month of Halloween! (And there are LOTS of fun things that can happen for that…)

Also, not only is the month special. A lot of the days are special, too! Clearly, October 31 is Halloween. But today is also an important day. It’s International Music Day!

In other words, October’s a pretty good month.

And in honor of Halloween, October in general, and International Music Day in particular, here’s some of my favorite “spookier” music. (This would make excellent background music for a Halloween party. And I can almost guarantee you that it’ll be played on at least one radio station on Halloween. If Radio Stations are still around by then, of course.)

(That poses another question- if a radio station plays a piece of music, and there’s nobody listening, does it actually make a sound? But I digress.) Right. Music!

This is one of my personal favorites. It’s one that many people know because of Disney’s Fantasia: The Sorcerer’s Apprentice.

You would post the one with animation…

Well, yes.

Then, there’s the other classic: In the Hall of the Mountain King

Again, I can practically guarantee you that this will be played at some Halloween party somewhere. And not even one that I’m hosting!

But this is still one of my favorites.

If any of you readers desire a more “modern” sound for the music, however, or if any of you simply appreciate cool science toys, this version of Hall of the Mountain King is pretty fantastic as well. Scientific Devices play it.

Well, if you’re getting into Tesla coils, here’s another great one: The Imperial March from Star Wars!

Yeah, I don’t know why the announcer called it the “Titanic” theme…

Anywho. I’ve already posted a lot of videos. So I should probably quit there.

But I hope you have a very happy October! Any fun plans?
