It is indeed just old ballroom music with new twisted v/vm touches. During the live v/vm show here in cleveland last month james played several of these tracks as well as demented versions of many other pop, jazz, & traditional tunes. I believe you can hear or download the entire live cleveland v/vm show on mp3 from the bent crayon website at: http://www.bentcrayon.com
