This budget-price 2CD holiday set contains 20 previously-unreleased tracks recorded exclusively for this compilation as well as three tracks only available on obscure compilations. Itâs an artfully-wrapped holiday treat direct from your favorite Projekt artists with some well-chosen guests.

Black Tape for a Blue Girl presents their first new recording: a lush cover of âForbidden Coloursâ (theme from the 1985 David Bowie film,Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrencewritten by David Sylvian / Ryuichi Sakamoto). Itâs a haunting, neo-classical track with lush cello from Unwoman; a track thatâs sure to put some spice in your wassail.
Fall under the haunting spell of Jill Tracyâs 16th century lament âCoventry Carolâ and frolic to the Steampunk legend Abney Parkâs âJingle Bells.â Floridaâs Autumnâs Grey Solace charms with the ethereal shoegaze of âThrough the Snowy Trees,â while Franceâs KatzKab wishes you a Joyeux Noël with their perverted Santa-tale, âMy Sad Wishlist.â Thereâs also new darkwave music from Unto Ashes, LoveSpirals, and noted cover-artist Pauline Cassidy.
And it wouldnât be Projekt, without amazing ambient / electronic music. Forrest Fang and Erik Wøllo each close out a disc with an extended soundscape for your snowy fireplace relaxation.
An ethereal tinged holiday experience.
