Original Christmas Song by Brandon Look
38 votes
I was inspired to write a song about how Christmas feels as a kid to how it feels now. Admittedly, with a lot happening in the last year, Christmas feels very strange for me this year. I tried to capture it in song form.I’d love to hear your feedback on this. Hopefully more original stuff to come in 2020.

A Very Spectrum Christmas (Part 4), by Thomas A. Christie.
Excerpts from A Very Spectrum Christmas (Part 4), by Thomas A. Christie. In this section: "The Official Father Christmas Game" by Alternative Software (1989). Throughout the 1980s, thousands of British children were lucky enough to discover a Sinclair ZX Spectrum under their Christmas trees and soon found their eyes opened to a virtual world of wonder. But Santa Claus did more than deliver computers — sometimes he appeared on them, too. This book delves into the Spectrum’s extraordinary pantheon of seasonal games: the good, the bad, the surprising, the unabashedly surreal and the occasionally rather tenuous.

The Steepest Hill, by The Minnows
Previously unreleased, ‘The Steepest Hill’ is a ‘song for our times’ reflecting the everyday struggles that people all over the world are facing on a day-to-day basis. As Raff explains: “It’s really an ode to the pressures of modern-day life but with a message to tell people they aren’t alone and to keep going, keep climbing and one day, you’ll get to where you want to be.”We hope you like our video - filmed during rehearsals for our forthcoming gigs, at which we look forward to giving the single its first live performance.
