Conflux Cornucopia Cerebellum Cocktail Hour: Episode #032: Skatterbox #3

March 19, 4pm

Podcasts

A Skatterbox Session is a form of reconstructive art. Imagine a collection of pristine albums, movies, and stand up comedy routines preserved perfectly in stained glass. Put those into a box. Shake the shit out of the box until everything is broken into a gazillon pieces, then dump out the contents and decorate the box with the broken pieces to form something unique. That is what you will experience here. As always, the Alchemist asks you to please enjoy responsibility.

Happy Halloween my fiendish Alchemites and Confluxians. Welcome to this hellish sound collage from deep within the abyss. Please feel free to stream this while your trick or treater darken your doorway, or if you are hosting a haunted house. Though the content will feel and sound disturbing and vile, there is no need to fear that you are broadcasting profanity into your neighborhood as I was careful not to include some of things vulgarity that does appear in some of the movie sound sources I used, like the Exorcist. That being said, it is very dark and will leave a chill in your bones and even frighten those who do not steep themselves in the world of horror as I enjoy doing.

Thank you for listening to my show, or podcast after the fact. I appreciate your support.
