Christmas mixing

xmascute
You can download a rejigged version of the Christmas mix I made last year here. Yes, I'm re-gifting.

And you can find my "Best of 2011" mix here. This was surprisngly hard to compile; I started with a longlist that lasted well over 2 hours. The final version is just over an hour.

Hurray! Was hoping it might get some Christmas office action somewhere.

It went down pretty well apart from Mariah Carey: "We're not working in Debenhams here!".

Aw man, they need to lighten up. I don't care where it gets played - it's a cracking Christmas record.

Yes! Gosh I am tired today, for no reason apart from dreaming there was a fire-surround in my bed.

Yes. Super odd, I kept having to explain it was a 30s design...
