HOW COULD I NOT MAKE A CHRISTMAS MIX?



I'll be resuming normal posting again next Monday, but I wanted to get this posted before the weekend, because – at least on the east coast – we should be getting some snow and ice and other fun winter things! Plus, yknow, Christmas is right around the corner. I've yet to shop or anything, but we did get our Christmas tree decorated last weekend and it's beautiful! Anyway, I hope this mix enhances your holiday spirits. There's lots of good stuff here, some I hope you guys like it! Some of them, The Cat's Miaow track in particular, may not truly be Christmas songs, but they're close enough and too good to leave off. Enjoy and Merry Christmas! and Merry all other holidays, too! :D

[ZIP]: Skatterbrain's Indiepop Christmas (12 MP3s, 73mb)

Tracklist:
01 The Pines :: Silver Bells
02 Saturday Looks Good To Me :: Mistletoe
03 The Chesterf!elds :: Holiday Hymn
04 Pete Green :: Everything's Dead Pretty When It Snows
05 Glo-worm :: Holiday
06 Stormclouds :: Cosmic Christmas
07 Summer Cats :: Plastic Christmas Trees
08 Fireflies :: X-mas Song
09 The Cat's Miaow :: Do You Think It Will Snow Tonight?
10 Tuscadero :: Holidays R' Hell
11 Acid House Kings :: Christmas
12 Belle and Sebastian :: O Little Town Of Bethlehem

P.S. I have been tossing around the idea of maybe starting to do some podcasts with commentary and fun stuff, but I thought I'd see if it's something that people would listen to... So, does that sound like something you would be interested in? If so, I guess I may start doing that – its always seemed like it would be really fun.

Ace mix, Matt, thank you! That Stormclouds song is *amazing*. I'd completely forgotten about them so it made me dig out their 7"s. Woo!

You rule. Merry Christmas! x

podcast would be a great idea. i've been reading your blog for about 6 months now. it would be easier to incorporate music into your blog(show?). sometimes i get lazy and don't even click on the sample songs because i have to open them up in another window. conclusion: go for it. i'd subscribe.
