Would any of you knob twidders be interested in making a Christmas Album?

Like, popular Christmas tunes redone in electronic music genres?

That way we could have a nice album to play every Christmas.

If other people are up for it, I'll totally do an IDM cover of Away in a Manger.

Yes

haha heck yeah i'd be down for something like this

Yes. I was going to make a Christmas comp (in a style similar to the V/VM ones) on my soon-to-exist label, but then I decided my label isn't worthy of the people I was going to invite to it.

so yes. I will be on the WATMM christmas album if you don't mind me being

In the spirit of Christmas I think everyone should be included if they want to.

Does it have to be IDM?

It could be any genre.

I imagine most people will want to make some electronic genre, like acid and drum n bass, but honestly anything would be fun. What did you have in mind?

Now I wanna do a gangster rap Christmas carol.

I could rock a dubstep Carol of the Bells or a semi-ambient White Christmas

Hells yes son

I'm probably gonna go back to my roots on this one and make it noisy dadaist breakcore cut-up idm-hop

Yeah, I'd contribute a track/help with art for this!

Yes, I'd definitely contribute to a watmm Christmas album. Great idea!

Brilliant idea. I'd be down for a dark ambient techno-ish carol of the bells.

yep.

Okay awesome. There's loads of interest.

How does a December 10th deadline sound to everyone?

If that's alright, I'll make an official ekt thread about it.

Also, there are already 2 people who want to do carol of the bells. I'm going to go ahead and say that's totally fine. Certain carols deserve many interpretations.

That was the first one that came to my mind as well, but I'm thinking I want to do something more along the lines of a vocoder barbershop... possibly Silent Night. Yes, I do believe that is what I will do.
