SNOWFLAKE SERENADES

A holiday collection that probably features the most instrumentals that I've placed in one mix. The usual assortment of everything, with perhaps a bit more blues and jazz than previous entries. Looking back at the tracks there is no doubt in my mind I had just finished watching a Wes Anderson movie as I note the presence of the mighty Mark Mothersbaugh on this mix a few times, as well as Van's "Everyone" - the Moondance song which played over the end credits of a film I associate with this time of year - The Royal Tenenbaums.
