I told my wife about this last night and she wrote lyrics for "I'm Dreaming of an ILXmas"

Someone I tell ILX gossip to every now and then, but who rarely posts.

Mrs. C

anyone up for doing black metal vocals on "all i want for xmas is you"?

lol, I thought for a sec this was going to be a comp of lolicore

Philip – ME

And the unholy partnership shifts into the next phase.

Anyway, keeping this to the fore a bit here...

If you're keeping track of song titles, mine is called 'It's Christmas Time'.
There, now I've said it publicly, I have to do it.

Yes, yes you do.

Speaking of unholy alliances, I"m guesting on crüt's track. (Hopefully he won't mind me revealing this.)

If you're keeping track of song titles, mine is called 'It's Christmas Time'.

Sun Ra cover?

lol no

working on a thing for this but i might throw it out, who knows

Okay, so I just got DJP's entry, that's three for now...

ned, sent you an ilxmail.

Got it, thanks!

Track sent...

Okay! Time to pep this up again.

As there's no reason not to, I'll extend the deadline to the end of November, aiming for a 'release' of December 1.

i *might* try to do something for this! been on a recording kick since Lulu.

lol I could send another entry for this if it's still going

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.
