If you haven’t heard any of our holiday music before, you might be surprised, bewildered, or confused by these songs. There are only a few songs you may have heard before, and the rest are about things like Santa’s poor work ethic, and a novel solution to our dependency on foreign oil.
As in years past, we feature singing robots, sometimes singing on their own, and sometimes performing duets with real, blood-filled humans. In addition, these songs feature a potent combination of whistling, glockenspiel, boot stomping, and ample amounts of Moog Synthesizer. And while it might not be obvious upon first listen, all these songs were written for, and in the spirit of, the holiday season. Some aren't even holiday songs — they're just songs about winter. Go ahead and download all you want — these songs are all FREE!
The songs from our 2012 collection are below. All older material (over 70 songs!) is in the Music Archive — also for FREE!
