Ale's Member Exclusive Playlist
Music to Scare Yourself By: A Halloween Mix
October, for me and for many of us, will always belong to Halloween. So for this month’s Member Exclusive mix, I wanted to make something genuinely unsettling.
This isn’t a collection of spooky sound effects or familiar Halloween standards. These are recordings chosen because they disturb, disorient, and make you question what you’re hearing. Play it at home with the lights off and you may find yourself wanting some company. As the mix gets darker, the line between the sounds in the room and the sounds in your head can start to feel a little less certain.
My advice is to go into it slowly. Turn the lights down, let the music creep into the house, and give yourself over to it.
Halloween should be a little terrifying.

Henry Rollins
A mix of all kinds, from all over and all time. Henry Rollins treats the radio as a place for serious musical exploration, bringing punk, experimental music, jazz, global sounds, independent releases, archival discoveries, and whatever else demands to be heard into the same restless orbit. The selections can travel across decades and continents in minutes, driven less by genre than an insatiable appetite for records and discovery. It’s radio for listeners willing to follow the music wherever it goes. Tune in Mondays from 10pm to midnight and Fridays from 8 to 10pm.
LeRoy Downs
Jazz has never stood still, and neither does LeRoy Downs. Each Sunday night, the show explores the multitudes contained within jazz, moving from its history into the music’s constantly evolving present. Contemporary players meet foundational voices, while hip-hop, experimental music, spiritual jazz, global traditions, and the avant-garde reveal the genre’s many points of connection. LeRoy brings context and curiosity to every set, presenting jazz not as a museum piece but as an active, expanding language with countless stories still being written. Tune in Sunday nights from 10pm to midnight.
Nassir Nassirzadeh
Indie found sounds, nostalgic guilty pleasures, and introspective piano solos to help you feel deeply and move freely through life.
