music and sound-design cut from public-domain horror and science-fiction films from c.1930-1970



"Sounds to Come" is the second installment of a series on Chinstrap of music and sound-design cut from public-domain horror and science-fiction films from c.1930-1970. curated by our dear Ergo Phizmiz, available for your listening horror via Free Music Archive.

The aim of the releases is the reframing of digital artefacts - although the pieces have been recut and equalised, we are not aiming to present definitive versions of these recordings, we rather present the work for the possibility of further investigation into the composers, sound-designers, film-makers, and of course the films themselves, which are available, in the main, for free download at Archive.org.

Another Nickel In The Machine

Three rather wimpy 'Hells Angels' guarding 144 Piccadilly - 1969
Eel Pie Island, 31st August 1960 
Adam Diment - the bang bang birds published in 1968

Another Nickel In The Machine is a blog about 20th century London (not particularly focused on the 60s), its history, its culture and its music. It is truly fascinating. Found thanks via Planetbarbarella.
