you know what this is and you should know if it's for you, which is to say, it is an albums worth of christmas songs done up low bit-rate stylee and it is in fact for you. and you. and also you.

A C64 Christmas

EDIT: just found this, my favorite from the comp, rolling around in my good ole divshare:

do they know it's christmas?


also: check this xmas demo for the commodore 64, advertising an amazing variety of 16 colors!

the internet told me to pass this along.

soul in your stocking: 25 soul funk and r&b holiday gems

so, the xmas mix i posted up a couple of days ago was great and all, but about a quarter of it was pillaged from a couple of mixes i found by this guy otis fodder, and a couple of days ago wfmu made three discs of his holiday oddities available on their blog.

holiday freak in
holiday freak out (disc 1)
holiday freak out (disc 2)

i can almost entirely one hundred percent guarantee that from those three discs you can whittle away the songs you're not that into and make a handy dandy single disc set of holiday joy that you will cherish for many christmases to come.

last year i took a bunch of time and made what i think was a really good left-field mix of christmas oddities and slightly twisted traditionals. this year though, i've got nothing. too much time spent working and not enough functional ac adapters for my computers what store my musics has left me unable to display my deep love of weird yuletide related music.

in lieu of a new collection of songs, here's the mix i made last year since a lot of you haven't heard it in at most a year, if ever. ENJOY!

HAIL, SANTA!!!

i seem to remember there being a ton of problems with the zip file last year, so get at me with any problems, but it should be all sorted out and smooth as silk.
