Zettakun – “Gaming Party Xmas” Music Video

This is the second major digital single, released in November 2020.

Built around a sample of a classic Christmas song, it portrays the emotional stirrings of a protagonist who usually spends their time immersed in games, as they consider heading out to a party to see someone they’re interested in.

Their struggle between the loneliness of not fitting in at large gatherings and the desire to connect socially is something many today can relate to.

The sound is striking, rooted in hip-hop while incorporating pop and electronic elements.

A remix version was released in 2021 and was also included on the album “Bed in Wonderland.” It’s a Christmas song that shines with Zetttakun’s characteristically mild perspective, suggesting that spending Christmas gaming isn’t so bad after all.
