Last year, The New York Boys Choir were a Hanukkah hit with a Rock version of "Nes Gadol". This year, they've gone EDM on "Light Up". Not sure how that's gonna play out for them, but the download is free from Soundcloud.
 Who wouldn't be up for a funky feel good Christmas song like "GorillaBot Santa"? Oh, I know what you're saying out there. "But, Stubby, you tell us all the time how you hate goofy novelty records." That's very true. I'm glad you were paying attention. But there's nothing goofy or novelty about "GorillaBot Santa" (well, except for the video...that is kinda goofy). No, this is just a throwback to the era of blue-eyed Funk, and these guys are spot on with that. What's more, they aren't talking about a Gorillabot Santa. That would be silly. They're asking Santa to come play with their band, GorillaBot. What was that about masks and costumes? I really haven't got the slightest idea what you're referring to. Haven't you ever seen a monkey and robot getting down before? Well, if you'd lived through the disco era, you would have. But, anyway, I'm glad we could set the record straight. Now let's rewind and play it again. Play that funky music, white boys (and pink gorillas). Lay down the boogie and play that funky music til you die. Grab "GorillaBot Santa" free on Bandcamp. Honestly, I can't stop listening to this.
 Hey, look, I don't know why I like the music I like when I like it. What I know is that, after listening to about 2 hours of crap that almost made me hate the holidays, this one made me smile (for assorted reasons). And I know that if the trend of our last couple of freebies continues, I'm going to have to put an R-rating on this blog.
I'd never heard of Cali Miles. She is apparently a model who posts racy pictures to Instagram and a singer of Pop Dance and EDM. She was also recently charged in connection with a drug ring in her native Ohio. But I'm not in the judgement business. Somehow, I think she'll get some kind of community service anyway (though, if she goes to prison, the selfies could be interesting). There's nothing explicit in the song or video (though plenty of suggestion). I'd say its tamer than your average Victoria's Secret TV special or commercial. Jemini is cool (depending on where you are on the web, there are 3 different spellings of his handle) and "Naughty X-Mas" has a good beat...you can dance to it. And, hey, its free. The tune dates to 2013 and is part of a free Cali Miles mixtape, "Glitterverse". You can download the whole thing or just the Christmas tune at Club Tapes. |
