It’s the holiday season, and it seems like that’s gotten a lot of people in the giving spirit.

Flying Lotus dropped a large gift onto the Internet last week after his twitter account reached 300,000 followers.  There’s a lot to sift through in his zip file, titled “Ideas+Loops+Drafts,” which can be found through This Song Is Sick.   

Four Tet celebrated his 100,000th Twitter follower by releasing a slew of songs via songspace, a file-sharing service, prompting one of his followers to dub him “the Beyonce of songspace.”  It’s a little tedious, but a small effort trade-off for a Grimes remix, and a slew of other songs dating back to 1999. 

Kaskade decided to show a little gratitude with an effort to improve the obviously lacking quality of songs available at holiday time.  It includes a version of “Jesu Parvule” (Poor Little Jesus) with Late Night Alumni, as well as a couple remixes of holiday classics by Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby.  He put them all together on his Tumblr, and the songs can also be found on his SoundCloud page.  I also took the liberty of jacking his festive gif.  Merry Christmas to me.
