Aye, it's good to know that Yellow Peril is growing.
My phone seems fine now btw, barny. Are you still doing your Xmas track? Do you still need us to chant? Looking forward to getting home tonight to start work on Xmas track.

I'm planning to, but I need to find a little time and avoid laziness... Or release an unproduced shitty demo

So yeah, the BIG NEWS. First of all we've signed our first rapper to the label, he's called Del and is from Brixton, James D. Cody and myself struck the deal outside a pub round the corner from the Academy. He gave us a sample of what he could do and we were mighty impressed. I took his number, he took mine, and we'll be in contact sometime this week. Del also does a night in some Bar & Grill in Brixton every other Wednesday and has agreed to put on a YPR night. First gig to be booked soon. This shit just got real. I was cracking up, Del's record will mark a new era for Yellow Peril. Speaking of marking a new era, here is the SUPER SURPRISE SECRET GUEST for yellow Peril's release. Kevin Burgess - Just Add Sleigh Bellswww.megaturtle.com/?d=GRORVF4O1. Let It Snow 2. Rocking Around The Christmas Tree 3. White Christmas 4. Winter Wonderland 5. Silent Night 6. All Alone On Christmas 7. Have Yourself A Merry Little ChristmasMore info: yellowperilrecords.blogspot.com/

Can't wait to give that a download.
Was shitting myself incase Kev had covered 'Last Christmas' because it'd be a million times better than anything I do.

Baz, I don't know actually that's a good point. yeah I know what you mean Tucker, I'm undecided if to do an original or cover for the Christmas EP but thankfully he's not done anything I was going to. Gonna give this baby a blast in a minute.

Gonna give this baby a blast in a minute. I've wrote an original 'Please Remember (It's Christmas Time)' and even downloaded some .wav files of sampled sleigh bells Will record both and see which I prefer. Really like the idea of a dark, moody, atmospheric 'Last Christmas'. For what the song is about, it's a bit too chirpy and I'd like to put that right.

Hey guys, just a quick message to say what an honour it is to be releasing music on Yellow Peril Records, even if it is just a fun christmas covers album, but here's hoping to a long and prosperous partnership together.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the record, just a little bit of fun really, been working on it sporadically over the last few months, some of the songs are more traditional sounding and some I tried to change up a bit, hope you enjoy it and hope it brings a festive smile to your face.
Merry Christmas one and all!
Oh and Erica didn't make the artwork, though I was inspired by her stuff and she pointed me in the direction of some stuff I could use/steal to when designing the artwork, so thanks Erica!
