In the past we’ve created several collaborative Willkommen projects for free download over the Christmas period.

Thank you to the following people for contributing:
Here are a few links to past collaborative projects for free download on last.fm:
Willkommen Covers The Sleeper – various artists covered each song from The Leisure Society’s debut album. Originally released as a free Rough Trade bonus CD.
Willkommen Foxswap – various artists covered each other’s songs before the Foxtrot festival
This Christmas we’ll be sending out a free Christmas download album to everyone on our mailing list. Just join the list using the form to your right to get your free album. Thank you to the five hundred people who’ve already signed up in our first month.
