The Crossing

❄️ An instrumental cover of the hymn In the Bleak Midwinter ("Cranham") by Gustav Holst. I put a rompler-heavy spin on it, inspired by the music of Bill Wurtz! ❄️ ♫

While making this, I was picturing the scene of a kid receiving a little old Casio keyboard for Christmas in the 2000s and trying out all the sounds. The majority of sounds I used are from the Roland Sound Canvas VST, some are from the Korg M1 VST, and others are soundfonts. I had a lot of fun with production stuff like reverb, bitcrushing, mid/side EQ, compression and panning on this one!

This track was originally released as part of the "Christmasasaurus Unleashed!" compilation album organised by Bubblegum Octopus in 2023: https://christmasasaurus.bandcamp.com/track/in-the-bleak-midi-winter

Gustav Holst wrote his hymn using the words from the poem "In the Bleak Midwinter" Christina Rossetti. The hymn was published in 1906, so it's public domain!
