A bit of electronic festive music

#1 Post by Gary1962 »

:D I like to make music from time to time and have done some electronic versions of some Christmas classics and put them on YouTube. Here is what is on offer!

Silent Night: http://youtu.be/IF2jb5TWCzc

Silent night (Piano Version): http://youtu.be/IHk9TwXrGHI

We Wish You A Merry Christmas: http://youtu.be/8-EikpCU4ZY

We Wish You A Merry Christmas (12 Inch Version): http://youtu.be/5_FFwKGBg2Y

Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer (Single Version): http://youtu.be/5_FFwKGBg2Y

.... To come, a Festive Fun Extended Mix of "Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer" and 2 versions of the Wizzard classic "I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday"

I have put an 8 track EP available on Bandcamp as a Digital Download in Flac, WAV, MP3 etc for just £1.49: http://garyhunter.bandcamp.com/album/festive-ep

Enjoy, Gary :D

We wish you a Merry Christmas was interesting. I like the electronic flourishes.
Rudolph sounded like Gary Numan was playing synth (which is a good thing).
Silent night made me want to throw up (not because of your production, but because I hate the song). Great for the kids I suppose and nicely played.

If you don't mind me saying, these are all a bit too traditional to me, although I suppose that is the point. I tried to do a techno version of In Dulci Jubilo which sounded terrible of course, so I gave up on it.

Wonderful Christmas Time, by Paul McCartney is a really good example of how an electronic Christmas song can work.

And here's another tune I'd love to hear redone! ;)
