Francfranc presents Snow Crystal -The Best of Christmas Party Mix-
Release Date: 11/10/10
Price: 2500 yen

What better way to celebrate Halloween than with news of a Christmas CD? Snow Crystal compiles Christmas standards performed by some of the hottest house artists in Japan including Q;indivi, note native, and Jazzin’ park. Disc 1 features a non-stop mix by the omnipresent DJ Fumi*Yeah!, while the second bonus disc has full versions of 3 songs.

Samples can be found at Francfranc’s official site.

No “O Holy Night” makes me sad. 🙁 Still, the samples sound incredibly promising. I’m absolutely in love with the lounge version of “Happy X’mas (War Is Over)” and the album has an incredible amount of variety.
