City od Vilnius releases "Socially Distanced" XMas LP

Group of seven Lithuanian electronic music producers have released Re-Xmas, a ‘socially distanced’ Christmas album commemorating the “extraordinary” 2020 festive season. As a video on the Re-Xmas project website explains, the album features reworkings of traditional Christmas songs, including ‘Jingle Bells’, ‘Silent Night and ‘O Christmas Tree’ (‘O Tannenbaum‘), by top local talent.  The ‘ social distancing ’ element sees the composers adding two equal intervals of pause – symbolising two metres’ distance – after each note from the song’s main melody. Every note from a song’s main melody was followed by two equal-length intervals of pause. This gave notes more space and made rhythms much slower, but that was only the beginning.  Contributors include dark-techno DJ Alex Krell, ambient producer Fume and experimental electronic duo Lakeside Culture , with the album’s release supported by Lithuanian DJ collection Antidote Community .  Antidote Community · Re-Xmas The project a
