Hey,

I think this weekend would be a great weekend for the production of the Ludum Dare Christmas Album!  So rev up your recording equipment / tracker .. and put together a swell Christmas track!  Post links to your tunes in the comments of this entry!

    here’s mine. who knows, maybe i’ll make the next. this was my first experiment messing around with garageband. It has all sorts of loops, so it was mostly cut-n-paste. Just used the internal laptop mic to record the sound, not half bad!

    Since I’ve been playing with Korg DS-10 on the Nintendo DS lately … here’s one done with that:

    Okay, actually .. that’s two. They are only slightly different, but I can’t decide which is less annoying.

    Well, I am presenting an instrumental version of my classic, Christmas Shopping. My official singer has a sore throat today, so I couldn’t release the full version, and the song is pretty weak with no lyrics. So I ask that you sing it yourself! It’s a holiday classic that will be caroled from coast to coast next year, so get a jump start and learn it now.

    The chorus is the short part that goes fast, the verses are the long slower parts (you hear the verse music at the beginning of the song, though you are supposed to start singing at the first chorus):

    (chorus)
    Christmas Shopping
    Pain in the rear
    Planning to go
    early next year

    (verses)
    We’re Christmas shopping
    Parked in the far lot
    Time for some walking
    In the cold

    Santa’s at the mall
    Not at the north pole
    You want a football
    You get coal

    Shoppers are fighting
    Tempers are rising
    Everyone’s buying
    Wal-mart crap

    Went Christmas shopping
    Bought stuff on a lark
    Now we are stopping
    Where’d we park?
