Hmm. That’s Odd!

Music For When You’re In A David Lynch/Tim Burton Mood

One of the directives at CSS Music is to follow the slogans of Austin, TX and Portland, OR: “Keep It Weird.” While many of our composers would love to get their creative fix creating disc after disc of the strange and bizarre, we must reign in this desire…most of the time. But when these talented people do let loose with the unusual, outré music is born.

Click on “Eclectic Retro Lounge” on our Hand Picked Genre homepage and prepare for a trippy experience! A track like “Curiosity Lounge On Mars” (Repro-File Plus, Vl. 34) is…well…the title describes it! Want a little Tim Burton film music? Listen to Busy Life (Super Themes Vl. 69) with its light, magical yet slightly dark track vibe. Want to go old school sci-fi? “Martians Invade Hollywood” (Digital Ditties, Vl. 2) will evoke images of Ed Wood. How about a truly strange hip hop track? Check out “Hood Wanks” (MaxTrax Vl. 45) Goofy and fun kids track? Have some “Cheese Corn!” (Super Themes Vl. 20) How about a real quirky World track? “World of Mystery” (Repro-File Potpourri Vl. 12) fills the bill weirdly! Something fun and whack? “Stambaugh’s Sassy Shuffle” (PowerTrax Vl. 35) is a happy track that’s been seriously jacked with!

If you’re looking solely for film music with that peculiar, something’s-not-right feeling, “Strange Cinema” (Super Themes Vl. 1) might be ideal. And if you audition the large selection of Super Themes film discs, you’ll find a number of unique and unusual film score tracks.


You never know when you might want to try music that’s definitely strange. And we at CSS Music will continue to Keep It Weird for just those special occasions!
