Simon V - Digital Christmas

Simon V's Digital Christmas is the latest release on the Knobtweakers Netlabel. It was an online experiment which ran for one year. Every 24th each month you could download inspiring music from simonv.com. Features include the wonderful vocal talents of Shoot The Kitten and Laura Ryhänen.

"After the Rain" is representative of Simon V's unique dnb style, with a strong hook, great bassline, on-point percussion, smooth flowing chords, and synthesized strings that remind me of a classic 80's film soundtrack. One of the highlights of the album.
