Dødens Garderobes Julealbum is an on-going project by Danish trio Dødens Garderobe (Jeppe Zeeberg, Nicolai Kaas Claesson & Rune Lohse). Every year, the trio invites a selection of musicians/writers/artists to participate in recording a non-profit Christmas album. Every musician chooses a christmas song and records it accompanied by Dødens Garderobe.
The project is made under a set of dogmas:
Everything is recorded in 12 hours
Each guest has 30 mins to record their song with Dødens Garderobe
The guest cannot tell Dødens Garderobe their pick of song before the day of recording
The guest cannot rehearse with Dødens Garderobe before the day of recording
The music is mixed live, no overdubs or edits whatsoever
The Dødens Garderobes Julealbum is released in the traditional Danish advent calendar style: one track each day from December 1-24.
Dødens Garderobe has released 16 Julealbum since 2010. Over 340 guest artists have participated.
All albums are available for free on soundcloud.
