Four late night short notes

Of course our curiosity is aroused the moment you're describing your new track as 'my dumbass christmas song'. But Jave Foster from Canada a.k.a. Flat Pop actually did the opposite with this intriguing track, that floats from a Broadway-esque start into a painfully beautiful alternative Christmas pop song.

The clear voices of Taylor Curtis & Matt Richardson shine on this passionately sung alt rock plea, where the longing is almost palpable. Because "I don't need a thing underneath the tree, Don't want a letter or a call, I just need to see you sleeping next to me". Sweet. Here on Bandcamp.

"As the end of the world is surely upon us, hold your loved ones close, the last Christmas on earth." The image that I am the Unicorn Head paints is not very cheerful, but at least it's wrapped in a calm and cool indie track. Here on Bandcamp

Yes, we do love the weird and the wonderful, the odd and the old. But every now and then a tiny bit of contemplation is also needed and it's already late. So how lucky we are that Mateo Drew wrote his sad but moving piano driven Xmas song 'Lonely Christmas'.
