The unexpected concept was achieved by making two equal intervals of pause, which symbolize the required two-meter social distance, follow each note from the songs’ main melodies. As a result, all-time Christmas favourites sound unusually new in a slower pace.

The minds behind the initiative are seven producers and composers, such as Alex Krell (producer of uniquely dark techno), Lakeside Culture (international duo focusing genre-bending music), FUME (electronic music producer with fascination for ambient beats), and others, all of who have collaborated with the electronic music project Antidote and released a new album „Re-Xmas” of the so-called „social distancing remixes.”
The album is incorporated in an audio-visual installation near the electronic music mecca „Kablys” in Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania, and will also be played as the „Album of the Week” in the local radio station „LRT Opus”.
The said musicians are based in Vilnius which has been known for its progressive music scenery for the past few years. When the lockdown put an end to live performances for the first time in spring, Vilnius’ rooftops and the most beautiful parts of the city were showcased by Antidote which united electronic music DJs to disperse the quarantine monotony with audio-visual performances.
