Just for the holidays, here’s a free mp3 from Erratik artist Ryan Rapsys: Stille Nacht! Heilige Nacht! Remix 2008 (3.2mb mp3 file)

It is more closely based on the original melody by Franz Xaver Gruber, composed in 1818 and based on the text written by Rev. Joseph Mohr in 1816. Of course, this version is considerably more modern in arrangement and sound (more of a sound sculpture imitating the melodies). Enjoy!
