Steven Severin of Siouxsie & the Banshees on Morricone Youth

Steven Severin on Morricone Youth, Sunday February 21, 2010, 2-4 pm ET




Steven Severin first came to prominence as the bassist for Siouxsie and The Banshees, who emerged from the London punk scene in 1976 and went on to be one of the most iconic and influential British rock bands of all time.  Along with core members Siouxsie Sioux and Budgie, Severin co-wrote and co-recorded eleven albums whose impact on subsequent generations of musicians still reverberates today. Since The Banshees' dissolution in 1996, Severin has continued to make a name for himself as a composer of music for theatre and dance companies as well as film soundtracks including the infamously banned "Visions of Ecstasy."  Tune in this Sunday, February 21 at 2 p.m. EST for a special installment of Morricone Youth, as DJ Gray Dolores (Misty Roses vocalist Robert Conroy) chats with Steven Severin regarding his music, his favorite soundtracks and their influence on his work with Siouxsie and the Banshees and as a solo artist.

Just Gimmie Indie Rock! OSTs from the 90s - 2000s

It's the end of the decade...tonight's show is dedicated to more recent soundtracks which I tend to overlook. The playlist names read more like a college radio playlist from 10 years ago!

MORRICONE III: Ennio Morricone's Birthday Show‏‏

Tune into your source for all things soundtrack, Morricone Youth, on East Village Radio this Saturday from 10 p.m. to midnight ET, for Morricone Youth's third annual tribute to the namesake of the show, Ennio Morricone.

Considered as one of the most influential film composers of all time, composing for over 500 films and selling over 40 million records worldwide, Morricone wrote the film scores to such classics as Sergio Leone's Spaghetti Westerns including "The Good, The Bad & The Ugly" (1966), John Carpenter's remake of "The Thing" (1982), Brian De Palma's "The Untouchables" (1987) and Guiseppe Tornarore's "Cinema Paradiso" (1988). Il Maestro turns 81 on Tuesday and doesn't appear to be easing up on his workload purportedly turning down composing Quentin Tarantino's most recent film "Inglorious Bastards" to focus on two more for Tornatore, "Baaria" and "Leningrad." Host Devon E. Levins will be dedicating an entire two hours to his music in his honor.

HALLOWEEN III: Season of the Witch on on MYRadio

Morricone Youth's third annual Halloween Soundtrack Show finally fell on Halloween Saturday and host Devon E. Levins was joined once again by childhood pal and all around grindhouse/exploitation film guru Warren Prewitt III continuing their semi-monthly Soundtrack Talk series on surviving 70-80s Las Vegas through cinema.

This week's topic was the obvious, all things Halloween. Tons of terrifying Italian giallo, slasher and grindhouse music interspersed with reflections on the two's upbringing filled with memories of white trash haunted houses, parent teacher association film festivals, Las Vegas Drive-Ins and Cinema 1-2-3 on Fremont Street -- PLUS part two of the tribute to Vic Mizzy who unfortunately passed on October 17th!
