Papa J – A Southern Californian living in Sweden. He met up with producer team MindFunk Productions (NYC born and raised Jeff Virgo and Marianne Perback from Sweden), got together and felt strongly that a holiday version of the Adam Sandler hit “The Chanukah Song” was needed to spread peace and love during the holidays and as a light-hearted alternative to Christmas songs. This cover version gives the song the full holiday vibe while flirting with hiphop beats and urban grooves within an electronic pop structure.
