Christmas music obsessives are probably aware of the Netherlands' Snowflakes Christmas Singles Club, which puts out a batch of 7-inch vinyl holiday recordings each year. Among 2018's offerings is this quite interesting original song, a folky mid-tempo tune with a prepared piano backing (a regular piano with random objects stuck between the strings). The A-side manages to be warm and somewhat tense at the same time. Flip side is "The Holly and the Ivy" performed the same way. Only available as a limited white vinyl single with download provided on delivery, and as it just started shipping you might not get it for Christmas. Check it out on Bandcamp.
