So what do you do when suddenly you find yourself receiving a bit of Christmas music goodies in your inbox, when an opportunity comes to present you with a Christmas mix courtesy of a very respected UK producer? It’s a special Christmas show, that’s what!

The mix came first, then the Christmas music, and then I’ve found a few favorites lying around. Put them all together, and you have 90 minutes of music that should rival that nagging Christmas music playing in malls (well, one can try at least).

The Christmas mix, included as part of the show, comes courtesy of Dr. Rubberfunk (GPS Recordings/Jalapeno). If you’ve been a longtime fan of the show, you’ve heard tunes from him on the show. Known for his very soulful approach to funky breaks and the like, he’s put together a couple of special mixes for the holidays. One of those mixes makes up this week’s guestmix.

There isn’t much else to say, except I hope that you have a great holiday, whichever you choose to celebrate during this time of the year. Back atcha in 2010!

Peace.
