This year’s collection of Other Christmas Carols. As usual a highly arbitrary sample of inspiring and reflective tunes. Kudos to apo.stoi for certain inspirations. I do not own the rights to any of these songs. Go and buy them. Last years‘ lists are archived here. The initial tracks (I edited many of them) are on Spotify. The complete playlist with the edited versions can be found below and on Soundcloud. Enjoy.
