Avicii to Record Christmas Album

Jingle Bells! No our calendar hasn’t gone awry here at Data Transmission we’re just getting in the festive mood early following reports in Miami at this years Winter Music Conference, that EDM superstar Avicii is set to undertake his biggest project yet: record a Christmas Album for 2014.  Slated for an early December release, news of the  unconventional album follows hot on the heels of his Country vibed tracks that dominated 2013 and the start of this years such as ‘Wake Me Up’ & ‘Hey Brother’, that everyone wrongly poured scorn upon at last years WMC.  Now, looking at how that worked out in the case of smash hit ‘Wake me Up’ we wouldn’t be too quick to condemn the chances of Avicii’s  attempt at recording the first full blown Christmas dance album complete with Christmas Jingle bells and whistles similarly capturing the publics imagination and storming the charts. Love him or hate him, it’s hard to see the affable Swede not adding yet another platinum plaque to his wall when his EDM re-imagining of some of favourite Christmas carols arrives this December.  We’re expecting this album to end up bigger than Santa’s belly…
