ILX Christmas Compilation: Deck the Halls With Boughs of LOLly (2013 expansion! Deadline is December 1!)

Haha I was going to revive this again in October or so -- we have ten tracks, we can create the expanded edition.

It did get released, an ILX outage meant it was finished off on the sandbox.

And I would definitely contribute to an ILX Christmas 2012 album. The ILX Beatles covers project isn't due until the end of Feb 2013.

haha okay, that makes sense

hmm the link appears to go to nowhere tho ;_;

does this one work for you?

http://sandbox.ilxor.com/sandbox/ThreadSelectedControllerServlet?boardid=142&threadid=1465

that was massively unclear of me; I meant the link to the comp: http://soundcloud.com/nedraggett/sets/ilxmascomp

haha i see, can't help with that one.

Someone should turn this into an MP3... How could it be left off any ILX christmas comp?

"Oops, looks like we can't find that page!" sayeth the soundcloud

I actually had to clear the comp from my account so I could put up the Centipede Hz one! (Using only a free account, you see.) I'll reupload the whole thing later in the year once we figure out what else is on it.

Yeah, the Ze records christmas album got revised the following christmas.

I *shall* remix my track properly this time.

And I would definitely contribute to an ILX Christmas 2012 album. The ILX Beatles covers project isn't due until the end of Feb 2013.

Not to be Scrooge or anything, but the beatles thing is due to released in Feb. 2013.

5 months is probably enough time to do both.

You could always do "Christmastime Is Here Again" and knock two out with one punch.

I'll put up the tracklisting from last year here as reference tonight or something.

...which I forgot to do. So!

http://soundcloud.com/nedraggett/sets/the-ilx-christmas-compilation

DJP - Coventry Carol Ladies
Tom D - On the Occasion of the Release of John Maclean from Peterhead Prison and His Return to Glasgow on December 3rd, 1918 (O Tannenbaum)
Grannykart - Sinterklass
Mark Grout - Xmas Trees
The Transients - Please Don't Tell My Baby
Snoball - It's Christmas Time
Bernard Snowy - single best christmas
Elf With Wound - Fissions of Sugarplums
Mark Grout and Friend - All I Want For Christmas is LouLou
The Dead Kittendys - Holiday in Catbodia

And what I'd like to do is create the expanded edition if anyone's so inclined. Short notice at this point but have at it!

Deadline December 7th, no limitations, originals, covers, whatever. MP3, AIFF, WAV, whatever format is best (I use Apple, FWIW), file size not an issue. E-mail files or links to me at ned at kuci dot org when you're done. We'll need cover art as always, especially to replace the crappy thing I did last year when nobody volunteered. Post if you're in.

I'm in, wanted to do this last year. I had some spare time today and made a stupidly jaunty thing with duelling music box and cheap 60's organ, and lot's of sleigh bells, will send when mixed.

Great!

Ned, if it's an expanded edition I can send you the spare song I wrote for the first album.

anyone want to collab on a metal version of weird al's "xmas at ground zero"?

Ned, the MG And friend should be reversed as the majority of the work was done by the other party (I'm on mobile so can't check upthread)

I shall see about remixing my solo track, but keep that one in case I don't.

All good! (And yeah, snoball, feel free!)

RIght, found the sandbox thread this got 'issued' on,

The "Xmas LouLou" should be "Philip Nunez and Friends", mainly because otherwise I'm named on too many to be fair.

sarahel HAS to do the 12 SBs of christmas

Oops, I missed the last revive. Was going to say I wanted in but 7th Dec is so not gonna happen as I'm away this weekend. Excited to hear the results though!

Ned: You don't have a premium Soundcloud account, correct?

Ned, if I was going to remix the track, I'd be doing it this sunday coming up.

Which is after the deadline.

(doing this in conjunction with finishing the "Beatles" track for the other next ILX comp)

Deadline extension to Sunday the 9th is feasible. And I will update track info a bit here when I can!

Also yes, no premium account.

Okay, I will dig up the MP3 I have floating around of my "God Rest Ye, Merry Gentlemen" arrangement and send that to you

sent

Received!

Sent!

Got it!

Okay deadline will run through Sundayish and I'll try and get everything together and updated by then.

OK Ned, sent you a new track, which I began in a sudden rush of inspiration in the early evening and finished at 2am. let me know if you received it, my email accounts have been playing up.

While we are saying "OK Ned"..

OK Ned, I've searched but I can't find the 'original tracks' for my Xmas trees track, so I guess the original will have to do.

Tom D: got it! Mark -- all good, thanks!

Okay so quickly reconfirming at this point that the 'new' tracks I have are snoball, DJP, Tom D and Ismael. Will update and reload tonight assuming there's any last minute stuff heading my way. Thanks!

Whoops, my apologies, there's MaresNest's as well that I've got.

Okay, we are live and expanded!

\{-_-}/

yay!!!

hooray!

well that's awesome, I can't get into the site at all for some reason

huh, works in Chrome, doesn't in Firefox

I am listening to it right now in IE7 so unless I broked-ded it, it works

First time I've logged back into SoundCloud since their re-vamp last week - it looks... different

(works for me in Chrome btw)

DJP -- man that's weird, I just rechecked it with Firefox at work, went through just fine.

I am certain it is me and the site fighting against each other
