Christmas 2015 album

Hi all,

Remembering last years album creation, also reminded me about the extra time we needed to do the worx. Do you feel like creating an album again this year?
Cheers!

Yes!

Rather than doing an album full of Christmas carols (which although was fun is a bit limited and could be cheesey) what about just an album of songs from forum members and the money goes to something like a kids charity?

Anyone know a tape or cd distributor we could even put something physical out there rather than just a download.

Just a thought

What a nice idea ! I didn’t know there was a christmas forum members’ album :slight_smile: Where is it ?

@spacetravelmadeeasy - really like that idea. Would be up for contributing.

Oh WoW! How cool!

I didn’t know you guys did christmas albums - this is epic, love it!

@spacetravelmadeeasy Love the idea to monetise it and give to the needed. Although Christmas is cheesy if you want it to be cheesy I can think of a construction which you select both a well known royalty free christmas song (we have a list of that I remember) and a genre or an other inspirational song and do a mashup of them. Christmas for me is that one time in the year when you can listen to Wham :slight_smile:

Wow, OP-1 Christmas music! I’ll be listening to this alongside Vince Guaraldi’s Peanut’s soundtrack this winter.

Nothing will even trump The Muppets Christmas Album with John Denver! :wink:

If there was an accompanying television special, I should have seen it as a kid, though I don’t recall the music. Must investigate this.

My parents had it on the record player every christmas when I was a kid.
It was a soundtrack for opening presents to :wink:

So, is there going to be a christmas album? I’ve got an original christmas song that I think I’m finally ready to release.

Oh, and hello again! It’s been forever since I visited this forum. Need to get back to music again.

Man I’ve been so caught up I forgot all about it this year

Hello folks

The Twoism forum (http://www.twoism.org/forum/index.php) has now reached compilation 6 of their One on Twoism release series by forum members. I’ve been on two, and the quality has been high. Forum Admin Aesthetics has always compiled and mixed the albums really well. Maybe we could do similar for operator1 members?

As for physical releases, I think Aesthetics used Kunaki CD pressing before, not sure which company did it for the most recent Volume 6. Basically the clients (us, in this case) submit mastered files for audio and artwork, and choose artwork/packaging options. Then the buyer orders direct from the pressing plant and the CD is sent straight to the buyer.

So, anybody interested in a forum member’s OP1-only album? :slight_smile:

All OP-1 and pump-organ:
