Welcome to the Christmas party, guys, welcome, welcome. I'll take your coats to the room, make yourselves comfy, there's nog and treats already out on the table. Later, we're gonna string popcorn and cranberries for the tree as a fun group thing. Home Alone, A Christmas Story and Gremlins is on loop on the tv on mute just because. I've got fun stuff planned, the music's already going with a couple of different yuletide mixes planned - we're all gonna dance and shake our butts for a while and then we're gonna cool down to slower jams. We've all got silly nicknames, here, that's OGRE, oh and over there, that's Phaserland, you'll get to know everyone if you don't 'em yet.
I'll be your host, you can call me Who Ha, I'm a Christmas animal.
We're gonna have a blast :)
It's the biggest holiday party in the Retro Synth community, and everyone's invited!
-----------------------------
Presenting: It's Christmas Time Again!
The followup to 2013's amazing compilation, we've got 24 tracks of delicious Christmas retro synth, some fast some slow, all super cool
(Suggested donation price of of the album -> $5.00)
There's a fun 12x18 poster introducing this year's kookiest new pal,
The Holiday Helper Owl, eeep! :)
Oh and did I mention that there's a freakin 32 page magazine?
It's chock full of goodies, like interviews with John Carpenter (ZOMG!), Lazerhawk's first public interview (FWHAT?!?), and this magazine's spotlight is on The Graphic Artists of Retro Synth, with a choice selection of some of the best artists in the community. As I see it, the art that accompanies all the music releases is just as equally important in helping hit our nostalgia buttons.
- Every download of the album includes a free bonus download of the Christmas Magazine (10mb PDF)
Set aside a couple of hours, you're gonna have a rockin time.
Oh, and keep the change, ya filthy animals.
Retro Promenade. Bright. Fun. Retro.
