]]> http://robotneedshome.com/?feed=rss2&p=306 0 Exports03: The White Noise Christmas Charity Compilation http://robotneedshome.com/?p=299 http://robotneedshome.com/?p=299#comments Thu, 08 Dec 2011 16:39:14 +0000 John http://robotneedshome.com/?p=299 Over the last year we’ve been releasing occasional compilation of music produced in or around Leicester that we think is important and now it’s finally time to unleash the third installment of that series.

Exports03 is a little special. We’ve been involved with the organisation of Leicester’s White Noise Festival since it’s inception, and so this time the compilation is available for a nominal charge with EVERY LAST PENNY being donated to the festival’s chosen charity, the LOROS hospice. You can buy it DIGITALLY from our store, or PHYSICALLY exclusively from the merch stand at the festival.

We asked some of our favourite musicians from across the city and beyond to contribute a christmas song. Sometimes we helped them record them in an afternoon or over a weekend, and sometimes they knuckled down and put the songs together in their spare bedrooms and sent them in. Some are covers, some are original compositions, but either way, every song is special – even throwing up some unexpected collaborations. Here’s a quick run down of what you can expect…

  1. GRACE PETRIE & CAITLIN FIELD – Fairytale of New York
  2. THESE FURROWS – Last Christmas
  3. ELIZABETH CORNISH – Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas
  4. FRANCIS WALSH & JOHN HELPS – Wonderful Christmas Time
  5. HERRA HIDRO – Rocking Around The Christmas Tree
  6. ROSIE DOYLE & BY THE RIVERS – Santa Baby
  7. BUENOS AIRES - All I Want For Christmas Is You
  8. WEIKIE – O Come, O Come, Emmanuel
  9. HER NAME IS CALLA – Mary In Doubt
  10. PETER WYETH – Silent Night
