# Audioccult Vol. 28: The Halloween Edition
**Light a candle. Draw the required sigils. Now, raise your arms above
your head and slowly, gently, exhale your soul. You won't need it here.
This is **Audioccult**, and it's time to get low. *Illustration: [Simone

******Halloween isn't really a big deal in Berlin. Despite the large
number of North American and UK expats, it's a holiday that just hasn't
really taken off. However, though I've forsaken my homeland and have
begun the arduous process of German languaging, I'm still an American.
Like all Americans, I project the aura of America in a foot-wide radius
all around me, and the fact that October 31st is also my birthday means
that nothing less then the hardest, costume-wearingest party will do. So
naturally, my friends and I [made our own][2]. This year, **[Drop Dead
Festival][3]** begins and ends with bass and gold. There will be prizes
for the coolest costume, so wear one. I bought myself a big
feather headdress and some arrowhead necklaces... you guessed it, my
Halloween costume is 'clueless white model in boring lookbook'.
Even if you can't make it to our Halloween BloodRave, I want you to have
the best night of evil possible. If you're looking for new sounds to
bring the right touch of darkened dance to your party, but don't want to
just fall back on Ministry's "Every Day is Halloween" for the 500th
time, these might come in handy. **Section 1** is for your more
dance-friendly beats. **Section 2** will provide you with more
atmosphere, particularly Seirom's 'Sing Oh Sing Of Exaltation II', which
is reminiscent of a drone-metal **Sigur Rós** and so beautiful I wept a
bit. **Section 25** is a really cool band.
