Tired of the same old boring Christmas songs year after year? The same songs in the same style every December? Fear no more..... This is a Christmas mix with a little bit of a twist. Nothing too "out there" or but different enough to keep you from going insane with the sounds of X-Factor garbage or other annually released festive "songs" ringing in your ears. The mix starts off with an epic track from Mew and goes into some Christmassy pop and funk then we head into [...]

Click on the smoking Santa to download all ten songs at once. Happy holidays! Sisterhood - "Christmas Treat, Peppermint" Obliminal - "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" Blazer Force - "Electronic Santa" [...]
The assault ads of Xmas carpet-bomb our consciousness. The malls deck their halls, running polyester red and green. And we consumers, armed only with our plastic shields, chant "Yea, tho we walk into the valley of debt..." The airwaves take a sadistic turn toward the holly-jolly, bombarding us in a non-stop psych-ops aural attack of [...]
A collection of holiday mashups produced by some of the best bastard pop producers on the earth.
Madison has at the least two full time Christmas music stations. In addition to these stations playing non-stop holiday cheer nearly every other commercial station on the dial has the same old Christmas tracks we hear every single year woven into their very fabric.

That's all well and good, but what has always bugged me is how limited commercial radio stations are with the [...]
Well today is a snow day in my part of Colorado, bringing everything outside to a deadened, frozen, thickly-blanketed crawl. It's gorgeous and quiet, and perfect weather for putting the finishing touches on my annual Christmas mix. I do love Christmas music, as you might remember from past years , but I also have a picky palate and am always amazed when I turn on the radio (as I did last night while we played cards) at how many many Christmas songs should have never been made. If I have to hear "Wonderful Christmastime" again, [...]

Was listening to Lukas on KGLT this weekend playing all kindsa insane and inane Xmas-isms. Called him up and he pointed me to Otis Fodder's three free mp3 free collections, Holiday Freak Out & In. I knew the Otis' name from his 365 Days Project. But didn't realize, till ...
