This is two guys who build what they call "sonic landscapes," with influences from Eno to Radiohead to Sigur Ros, and they've created this 2014 EP with six renditions of popular carols, all instrumentals, that have that modern progressive feel without losing the familiarity of the chosen songs. Interesting slow-tempo takes on "Ding Dong Merrily On High," "We Three Kings" and "Joy to the World," a spacy stop-rhythm version of "O Come All Ye Faithful," and uptempo versions of "Little Drummer Boy" and "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen." Good soundtrack choices for your Christmas videos. They're giving it away free on Noisetrade.
