A new 2016 Christmas rock tune has been written, composed and then recorded in a Phuket recording studios in Thailand by songwriter ‘Mark Hopkins’ with the main aim of bringing awareness and exposure for the Phuket island charity and Orphanage that Mark supports. You can listen and read more by going to the Tsunami Day, Phuket site .
The tunes name is: I’m coming home for Christmas and the songs sound is a unique up-tempo rock n roll song. Mark wrote and partially recorded a demo music guide of ‘I’m coming home for Christmas’ in late 2015 on Phuket and has kept the demo track since then waiting for the chance to record once again. In late August 2016 Mark began the studio recording process and used session players to record the tune over a six week period. The track includes 8 separate tracks and all session players were from the Philippines, including the lead vocalist ‘Micah Javier’.
Although I’m coming home for Christmas was recorded on Phuket the mixing and mastering was done in the USA due to Mark needed the best result and quality. The song is now ready to be heard and downloaded by going to the ‘Tsunami Day’ Website.
The main goal of recording I’m coming home for Xmas is to bring as many folks to the Tsunami Day web site as we can and then we hope in-turn they’ll be kind enough to give to one or any of the Phuket island charities, and to also download the song.
One other main goal is to be able enough downloads of the song to fund and create a Phuket live music club with open stage and recording studio / teaching room on Phuket, that’ll provide free classes and tuition to local underprivileged children from the local schools and orphanages. To date ‘La QingTing’ is not open yet but the website is below. (QingTing means: Dragon Fly in Chinese if you are wondering).
About: Mark set-up the Tsunami Day web site to market his tune Tsunami Day which was inspired from his own personal experiences while he was working in Patong in 2004 when the Tsunami hit Patong on boxing day. Much like ‘I’m Coming Home For Xmas’the song Tsunami Day also brought awareness to local Phuket Charities and Orphanages. On the ‘Tsunami Day’ web site there is numerous ways to greatly help including a Phuket Hotel and budget flights to Thailand booking system. Every cent helps.
