Stephen McLaren has taken all the traditional components of the Christmas single, mixed them up,  added a huge dollop of humour and reassembled them  to produce his own wonderfully skewed  festive song, ‘Have a Happy Hardcore Christmas.’

The accompanying video has to be seen to be believed.  At around the thirty second mark the drugs had obviously kicked in as my sense of wellbeing was topped off by a jaw breaking grin.  After sixty seconds I was singing along and shaking my imaginary Santa hat vigorously. It was also around then that I remembered I hadn’t actually taken any drugs.

Do yourself a favour, check out the video, download the song and Have a Happy Hardcore Christmas.
