THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN

C L U N E T I D E B A N G E R S ! ! ! !

Last year we made a Christmas album, interpreting some classic Christmas songs with an interplantary twist.

They're still online and available FOR FREE at http://www.ai-em.net/clunes/* ... either click on each track to preview/right-click to download, or download the whole thing as either a .zip or .m3u archive. Burn it to a CD, slip it into your parents' CD player at dinner and enjoy a "cosmic christmas" with your turkey, your nut roast, your christmas crackers and your slowly dissolving familial goodwill at your Christmas Day dinner table. Or stick it on your new mp3 player and shut out the screeching sounds of any younger siblings, cousins, nieces or nephews as they destroy their presents! The possibilities are endless.

RIP Oliver Postgate 1925 - 2008

"There is no such thing as 'the children of today'. Children are not 'of today'. They come afresh into this world in a steady stream and, apart from a few in-built instincts, they are blank pages happily waiting to be written on."
- Oliver Postgate
