Day 9, God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen, Lindsey Stirling
My ninth track is an entirely different reinterpretation of God Rest Ye Merry, by… Who else? Lindsey Stirling. She managed to transform what Loreena McKennit made solemn, almost mournful, into a whimsical disco track, complete with a predominant, bouncy dubstep beat and a vaguely computerized voice actually singing some of the words.
This is one Lindsey Stirling song I can't call “ominous;” it's just too danceable for that. It's off the wall, in a cute way. I like the in-between melody she put together, the one that doesn't follow the verse pattern but seems to be unique. It reminds me of something but I can't think what. The whole rendition, indeed, seems somehow familiar. Perhaps the style is familiar from my experience with EDM (electronic dance music.) It's techno: so much so, the violin is almost secondary to the beat and other techniques, except for that special section between.
Hey, go ahead and break out a few moves with this one… I wouldn't blame you
