HHM and Electric Kitsch collaborate on Holiday Mix Tape

December 13, 2013

Whether you’re one to rope garland like ‘whoa’ while making it rain tinsel or bah-humbugging your way through the end of the year, it’s an undeniable fact that Christmas is upon us. The Mitten’s first snow has fallen, presents have been purchased, hidden, and stockpiled, and most of us have already packed on half or more of the holiday weight we’ll resolve to get rid of come New Year’s Eve. Excited? We certainly are!

To celebrate the season and to give our ears a break from the same old stale Yule time tunes in seemingly constant (and often painful) rotation, Hell’s Half Mile has partnered with Bay City’s lone independent record store and festival sponsor Electric Kitsch to create a Christmas playlist sure to please. Built using selections suggested by Kitsch owners Jordan and Jessica as well as committee members and friends of the festival, this compilation was mixed by M.M. Knapps over a few quarts of eggnog and one half of a one cheese log.

Some of these groovin’ tracks were even transferred directly from vinyl obtained fresh via the Kitsch bins, while others could only be resurrected using the magic of the internet (legally, of course). This eclectic glob of audible goodness is available for free download using the link provided. Time to put this baby on the deck and hang some mistletoe, hellions…when you serenade your Christmas crush with these delicious tracks you’re all but guaranteed to snag a kiss. Happy Holidays from HHM and Electric Kitsch!
