NSTS Episode 083 - Halloween Episode with Rob Preuss

Published: Oct. 30, 2018, 2:25 a.m.

This year's Halloween episode guest is former Spoons and Honeymoon Suite keyboardist Rob Preuss. Rob took me to a studio on 72nd Street in New York City so he could play the spooky songs that make his skin vibrate on piano.\xa0

Rob is a ridiculously talented musician and an insightful mind. Rather than go through a specific list of songs, we go over some of the songs you'd expect and some you may not. And I learn a few things in the bargain - like the fact that the theme song from The Simpsons is basically the Devil's Interval, the degree to which Gene Simmons terrified Rob as a kid, and how changing the key of Spoons' Romantic Traffic can make it sound like a funeral dirge. \xa0\xa0
