All I can think of are our own WATMM Christmas albums, the 4 albums on V/vm Test Records, and tons of chiptune. Like any human being with a heart, I do enjoy getting into the Christmas spirit, but I really hate how cheesey the majority of Christmas music is.

 

Even this new album, with an appearance by Eleanor Friedberger (Who I adore) and a couple of other alternative bands is terribly cheesey.

tl;dr. Post good Christmas music. It doesn't even need to be Electronic, just good. I don't think anything is going to top Hell Interface though.

Nah, you're a wee child who can't wait for official release. Embarrassing. Shove your privilege.

julian koster (neutral milk hotel)'s album 'singing saw at christmastime' is pretty neat and eerie, especially if you like the saw (they're a lot of fun to play -- silent night is a pretty easy tune to get down)

 

this is the only album version i saw on youtube:

"They're about guns, lasers, robots with laser guns in space. Monsters from the future. Explosions. Sylvester Stallone doing a backflip on top of a spike while Robocop carries a ghost up a mountain. Bombs and swords and that... IDM is awesome."
