šŸŽ„ Community Project: IDMforums Holidays Album? [Santastep/North-Pole Garage/Ironic Dickens Music/Dreidel-n-Bass]

Anyone wanna do a little electronic music Christmas/Kwanzaa/Hanukkah/Diwali/Festivus/Krampus/Holiday project together? I’m starting to feel festive and @Seldt 's post gave me the idea. I would be down to release it myself… what y’all think?

Glitchmas?

  • FUCK YEAH LET ME GRAB MY SLEIGH BELLS

what if I make a loop, export the stems, and we play a little smaple syrup popcorn basketball, OR DO YOU HAVE THE CAJONES

bing bong bing bong christmas bells are ringin

I used to have this amazing, uber cheesy DJ mix of only xmas dance tunes, I miss it dearly, it was so fun and dumb. Are we talking remaking classics or making originals?

I dunno, whatever works? just needs to have that festive feel to it…? I’ve been messing around with ā€œangels we have heard on highā€ here and there the past couple hours

I’d love to, but my stupid FUCKING parents would probably stop me and say stupid useless crap about how I’m wasting my time
ugh
Hey, maybe I’ll make a track without releasing it just for the fun of it, Jingle ā€˜n’ Bells would go hard!

Probably not enough free time to participate but definitely gonna listen to it - I’m sure my boy is gonna like it :smiley:

I have to confess, the first experiment with electronic music I made with a friend’s DAW was a Jingle Bells cover and I even revisited the ā€œconceptā€ a few years back:

:laughing:

The 3D stuff was done with Flowscape - it’s a fun program made in Unity for quickly playing around with 3D environments. IIRC I made the video for one of their Discord contests. I added the dancing snow in Hitfilm…
I think the bad recording quality makes it better in this case :laughing:

Even if no one uses this, I’ll still throw an update of it on my Christmas album at some point.

in case it wasn’t seen above (link didn’t embed correctly.)

I’ve not found the time to put much work into this besides what’s posted above and loading @Jazzyspoon 's stems into a project file. But if I find time i’m definitely gonna work on it.

I’m actually busy practicing fakebook christmas songs on the piano because i’m playing for a sing-a-long at a dinner party my wife’s throwing. It’d be a good idea to record myself playing these and then throw them up here for remixing. :slight_smile: if I think of it i’ll do it.
