While Morbid Outlook is still under construction, I’ve been busy organizing Salon Noir, a series of period themed events in Toronto, Canada at Lula Lounge. As a little bonus to our patient readers, waiting for the new incarnation of Morbid Outlook as it turns twenty years old this year, I thought I’d post the soundtrack of our last party with David J, a 1920s themed Surreal Speakeasy. Enjoy this mix of darkly themed ambience, quirky vintage tunes and gothy cabaret.
