Yule Tunes MMXXIV - Part One

It's that time of year again, when I compulsively compile mixes of holiday music... 

Adding to the over two dozen mixes from previous years, here are the first two Yuletunes mixes for 2024...

I get nearly all of my music thru Bandcamp these days, so if you're looking to pick up more songs from an album you like from one of these mixes, check out my collection there (and comment/message if you need help, since I have 3300+ items in my collection...)

First is a mix of Synth heavy tunes, almost could have been a second Gothmas Mix but a few lighter tunes snuck on and it focused more on the electronic end. Nothing on the mix that's truly not kid friendly, but probably more fun for adults.

# Artist Track
1 Ladytron All Over By Xmas
2 Xander Harris The Plot to End December
3 Das Mörtal Last Christmas
4 Biomechanimal God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen
6 Flying Bohemian Toy to the World
7 Kibble Warm Fireplace

11 Hot Dad A Christmas Shortcut
12 Isolation Ward Lamina Christus
13 Freezepop Maybe Next Year on the Mistletoe (Computerizer Version)

Second, a second volume of Swinging Xmas, with a heavy focus on Surf Rock, but along the same lines as the first volume, a party friendly mix of rocking yule tunes. I found the excellent source image I used as the cover in the depths of Wikimedia Commons...
