I wasn't going to do a holiday mix this year because I didn't think I'd have enough new content, then BAM I was suddenly hit with a sleighful of relevant music. Or a donkey or something, if you're into the religious part of everyone's favourite re-purposed pagan festival more so than the commercial part. I'm not particularly into either of them anymore, but hey, I can always appreciate some catchy music.
Also presents.
Highlights this year are courtesy of Gruff Rhys (I held back on including "Slashed Wrists This Christmas" because even I'm not quite that cynical), The Boy Least Likely To (as usual), some random Scottish people, and Rob Crow in the guise of Goblin Cock. If you've ever wanted to hear a Black Sabbath song in the tune of a Christmas classic then this is the mix for you! If you hadn't even considered such a magical thing, well, you might as well download it anyway because it's awesome.
