released December 1, 2014
This project came about in early November 2014 as a way for a bunch of cool dudes (who also happen to be synthesizer and electronic music enthusiasts) to collaborate on a nice little holiday present that we could give out to other synthesizer and electronic music enthusiasts. It was also an excuse to just have fun and make some music.
We all want to give a big thank you the synth and electro community, the forums, the YouTubers, and all the other artists and fans out there who like to experiment, twiddle, record, improvise, improve, share, spread, contribute, and help build upon the world's collected musical knowledge, all of what has been and what is to come. And also for constantly reminding us that we have some expensive toys laying around the studio that we really should be putting to good use.
Proceeds from this record will be going directly to charity, you know, being Christmas time and all. This year we have selected to donate to Doctors Without Borders (Médecins Sans Frontières), so thanks to your contribution you've probably already saved a bunch of people's lives. Feels good man.
Finally thanks for everyone who contributed musically to the project and for all of the enthusiasm that kept us going. Here's the product of your hard work. Special thanks also go to dotcom for organizing the project, keeping everyone on schedule, mastering the music, creating album art, and writing the liner notes.
