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 five more Yuletunes mixes for 2024... With more to come next week...
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...)
hwæt! Xmas XXIV Folk Xmas Vol. 3
The third volume of my folk mix. A more traditional mix of songs both old and new featuring folk, acoustic goth and neo-folk Yule Tunes—suitable for all holiday family gatherings.

hwæt! Xmas XXIV Quiet Xmas Vol. 2
Another volume of Quiet Xmas... A mellow, quiet and slightly melancholy mix of Yule Tunes for a relaxing mood. For a long time I had this mix down as my gentle and beautiful mix for the year, so I'm not 100% certain that it's as quiet as the last mix, but the songs are lovely.
