<I>CSI: Crime Scene Investigation</I> goes for global appeal.<p>The Halloween episode of <I>CSI</I>, <A class="link" HREF="http://www.csifiles.com/episodes/csi/season9/let_it_bleed.shtml">"Let It Bleed"</a>, will get a dose of mood music courtesy of DJ <font color=yellow>Paul Edge</font>. He will play a DJ on the show, and the episode will feature three of his songs: an electronic reworking of the <font color=yellow>Stone Temple Pilots</font>' "Sex Type Thing", along with two original songs, "Release Yourself" and "LSDevil". "Being that <I>CSI</I> is set in Las Vegas, that helps play a role in choosing the music," producer <font color=yellow>Phil Conserva</font> told <A class="link" HREF="http://www.artistdirect.com/">Artist Direct</a>.<p>"Las Vegas is a worldwide destination," Conserva continued, "and I like the fact that Paul's a U.K. DJ. America may not be tuned into that music so much, and we are a show that's an international success. I want to be able to show that we're a global series. That's a big part of what I get to do: open up the catalog and have the world reflect on it. Nothing transcends better than music."<p>Edge described filming a club scene as very different than the experience of being in a real club. "That said, what <I>CSI</I> is doing with the scene is pretty remarkable," he explained. "They've tried to create a really good reproduction of what happens in a club with the music and the footage. The television medium has never gotten the sleaziness of clubs right—and I don't mean 'sleaze' in a bad way, I mean 'sleaze' in a good way. On television it's always been very plastic, but <I>CSI</I> doesn't approach filming like a normal television show; they're more cinematic in their style. I think <I>CSI</I> has pushed the envelope in respect to the club footage. They got the right vibe. They spent a lot of time on it, and that's really commendable."<p>"<I>CSI</I> has always pushed the envelope visually," Edge continued. "From my perspective, it was <I>CSI</I>'s edge that appealed to me. There aren't many shows out there on television that accomplish what they do, and I'm very proud that <I>CSI</I> had faith in me. This is not mainstream music, and after nine seasons, <I>CSI</I> is still one of TV's biggest shows because it has that cutting edge."<p>The original interviews are from <A class="link" HREF="http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/news/article/0,,4839601,00.html">Artist Direct</a>. "Let It Bleed" will air October 30 on CBS.<center></center>
