An Extra Special Holiday Gift From Eclectica


As a last little holiday gift from Eclectica to all of you out there, here's one final episode for 2013.  With the hopes of brightening up the season for dancers and non-dancers alike, I've compiled a selection of holiday music both chill and boisterous, traditional and unique that I hope you'll love. ^_^

Thanks to Ariel Publicity & Podsafe Music Network for the vast majority of music here, and special thanks to Kiva and Jonah Knight, who gave their kind permission for me to play their music for you here.  Thank you all, so much.  Without you and resources like you, I would have nothing to spin for the good listeners out there, so thank you, thank you and thank you for your help in making this podcast possible. ♥♥

Featuring Christmas themes, Hanukkah-inspirations, non-denominational pieces and music from around the world, this show is meant to augment your holiday celebrations, however you choose to observe them- no matter what tradition or faith you practice. ^_^  Whether you're into up-tempo pieces, chill, reverent music, more traditional Middle Eastern vibes, or harder-driving, modern tunes with a Western feel, it's my hope that this episode will have something for -everyone. ^_^

Featuring music by Naser Musa, Brothers of the Baladi, The Klezmonauts, Heather Dale and more, I pray this music adds to your holiday in all the best ways, moves you in body and in spirit, and adds new music to your repertoire and audio collection for many seasons to come. :):)

Happy Holidays, and Happy Dancing to All!
