      |: Story: 10 years ago or so I watched a(non-demoscene):|
      |: "demo" on the c64. As far as I can remember it was  :|
      |: just a stupid snowman standing around, and there was:|
      |: a sad tune playing. A few years later I decided to  :|
      |: track that melody on a dos tracker, just because I  :|
      |: liked the melody.When I was asked to produce a track:|
      |: for this EP, I first tried to do a cover of "we wish:|
      |: you a merry christmas", but didn't like the result. :|
      |: Then I remembered the cover of the "snowman" melody :|
      |: I once had done, and decided to find out where that :|
      |: melody came from.It turned out to be from an old us.:|
      |: christmas cartoon. I found the original vocals...and:|
      |: well. Boring story, I know. At least it started with:|
      |: the letter "S".                                     :|

      |: Das vorliegende Werk versucht, nur auf Basis der    :|
      |: landläufig bekannten Melodie (nach der              :|
      |: Sizilianischen Volksweise "O Sanctissima")          :| 
      |: verschiedene Aspekte des Originals zu beleuchten    :|

      |: Das dabei zum Einsatz gekommene Trackwerk           :|
      |: "renoise 1.2 beta" erwies sich dabei als äußerst    :|
      |: nützlich und nur wenig suckend.                     :|

      |: einem jeden eine kritische Betrachtung und womöglich:|
      |: die Erkenntnis des Seins schlechthin zu ermöglichen.:|
