Hello Patreon People,

So after a lot of feedback, as well as some time away from the mix and time to listen back properly, I redid the mix on the last tune. It was really unbalanced - too heavy on the strings and drums, and in general not as great as I wanted.

It has made me learn several uncomfortable truths about myself that I've known for a while, but just avoided - I kinda need to stop mixing my own stuff. I get too close to it when I'm writing it, and focus in on the wrong parts when I'm mixing it so that when it's done, I don't even know what I'm hearing any more. It's unfortunate, because.

So, I hope you enjoy this new upload, the old one is still up unlisted if anybody wants to still check that out!

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas (with the original lyrics) | feat. Justina Maria Sóto

The original lyrics for this Christmas standard were rejected for being too depressing for Judy Garland to sing in the movie Meet Me in St. Louis, so were rewritten. Frank Sinatra found the new lyrics too depressing also, and so had them re-written again to the lyrics we use today. ⦿ FREE DOWNLOAD ⦿ https://adamneelymusic.bandcamp.com/track/have-yourself-a-merry-little-christmas-feat-justina-maria-s-to Vocals - Justina Maria Sóto Violin 1 - Audrey Hayes Violin 2 - Meitar Forkosh Viola - Yumi Oshima Cello - Kristine Kruta Guitar - Shubh Saran Bass Guitar/Synth - Adam Neely SPD-SX/Percussion - Josh Bailey Arranged and Mixed by Adam Neely Filmed and Edited by Liz Maney Live session engineered by Evan Tyor Recorded live at the Williamsburg Library The original lyrics capture a very different mood...
