nyhi Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 http://www.joyfulnoiserecordings.com/announcing...-kishi-bashi-snowflexi.html The first of an annual tradition for us at Joyful Noise: the holiday "SnowFlexi"! Featuring an original Christmas song from the one and only Kishi Bashi, "It's Christmas, But It's Not White Here In Our Town" is a lush beauty which will appeal to even those who normally loathe Christmas music. Like we do. The release is limited to 1000 hand-numbered copies on white snowflake-shaped Flexi Discs. What is a Flexi Disc you ask? Well, it's essentially a paper-thin vinyl record. A pretty obscure format, but playable on any standard turntable. And of course if you don't have a turntable, it comes with an instant MP3 download. This is a "Pay What You Want" release, and all proceeds benefit Ear Candy Music Charity - who uses the funds to supply underfunded music education programs with refurbished musical instruments. ORDER HERE Donations of any level are accepted, but here are some general guidelines: $4 - $7 = Generous Level (Within the range of where we would price it if we weren't doing this whole "pay what you want" thing. And since we're giving you the option to pay one cent, donating that this level is totally generous.) $8 - $20 = Very Generous Level (Shows that you believe in the cause and would like to chip in a little extra for Karma points.) Over $20 = Ridiculously Generous Level (Either you are an amazing supporter of the arts, or you're super loaded, or both. And that's awesome. Any donations over $20 get special attention like extra gifts, candy, thank you notes, etc.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyhi Posted December 3, 2012 Author Share Posted December 3, 2012 the song that comes as an instant download is great but it is too damn short. like 1 min 45 seconds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trashbum86 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 if you donated generously for this, they are going to send you a signed wooden postcard or something. Where did you hear that? I decide it was a worthy cause and donated at a higher level, but I never got a wooden postcard. Wonder how much you had to donate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
