Minecraft Christmas by Area 11
Title: Minecraft Christmas
Artist: Area 11
Minecraft Christmas is distinctive for as one of the key singles Area 11 has
released. Designed as a Christmas song it scored well in the UK at Christmas.
The key point of the song is being based off hit indie game from Mojang,
Minecraft. The song has several references from songs such as the Minecraft
seed, 68954012663 (which spawns in a snowy forest) and the fact that the food
at the time of the song release was limited. The clear links between the
YogsCast at this point is painstakingly obvious (fact the music video is on
their main channel).
Area 11 is a British band from Bristol. They have a big twist, however, they
have a love of anime. The band sing about popular anime's while combing
different elements of different genres including the Eastern music and
Western music cultures. For example Tokyo House Party twists from a Rock song
to a Electro soundtrack to a distortion based breakdown. Many know Area 11
for Sparkles* (lead singer) appearance with the internet superstars the
YogsCast (British comedy duo) and the use of their music (Vectors track 2
ending) for outing the videos. A recent single of theirs includes Minecraft
Christmas which features Simon Lane of the YogsCast and which video has all
the members of this internet monopoly. The members to date include: Sparkles*
(singer/keytarist), Parv (guitarist), Kogie (bassist) and Leo (drummer).
Tuning: Standard (EADG)
