For part two in our Halloween playlist extravaganza Wierd Records visionary Pieter Schoolwerth gave us a maximalist treatment of experimental cold wave and minimal electronics, as well as a few classics from its obscuro history. It's fucking intense. We split it into two in case you can't handle it all at once. Click below to listen.
Part 1
Part 2
Peter sez: "This is the perfect soundtrack to the life of a lone, wandering individual who despite her desperate longing for 'relief,’ or rather 'meaning,' simply cannot rationalize killing herself because she is already 'dead,' and the ensuing existential dilemma and frozen cold realization which ensues: that every day is not Halloween...but is real and...quite wonderfully Very Rare and actually...worth living...WIERD.'"

Pieter hosts a Wierd Records party every Wednesday (that would be tonight) at Home Sweet Home.

Pieter DJs his favorite cold classics at the afterparty.

cheers for putting the spotlight on these guys, even briefly. wierd has been one of the few consistently interesting and vital parties and labels in a city that thrives on mediocrity.
