Under the Tree Remix Event

It’s not what’s under the Christmas tree that matters, it’s who’s around it.
~Charlie Brown

The holidays are upon us! Whether you celebrate with Thanksgiving feasts, lighting the menorah, holiday parties, Christmas trees, or anything around and in between, feelings of nostalgia make it the perfect time of year to express gratitude.

While some stack gifts under the tree this time of year, others find themselves under the trees on refreshing winter walks.

You are cordially invited to share original and traditional (public domain), holiday and seasonal pells, samples, and remixes. We would like to encourage you to record traditional public domain Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and Winter Solstice songs, as these are very popular with both listeners and content creators.

CALL FOR PELLS/SAMPLES:
Nov 12th through Dec 2nd
REMIX: Dec 3rd through Jan 2nd

SUBMIT HERE BEFORE NEW YEAR’S EVE

Winter Nights is the first release of a double album curation featuring remixes from past holiday events.

It is available at Jamendo, Bandcamp and Tunetrack.net

Thanks to all who made this curation possible! Special thanks to Zep Hurme for mastering the tracks.

It’s our first gift left Under The Tree!

Are you going to do anything to help folks find past samples/songs/uploads/pells/whatever which relate to the holidays? There is already so much content on the site, it seems like you’re disregarding that…

Hi there! We do events to encourage everyone to upload new music. But, of course, folks can always use any of the material on the site! The way to search for the tags for past material is built into the Sample browser.

http://beta.ccmixter.org/st...

And here’s an example of a tag search you can do for vocals. Play with the tags on the right (Edit tags).

I hope this helps!

Argh. Had so much going on in the non-virtual world that I missed it. Won’t miss the next one!
