Throwback: Blondie’s “Yuletide Throwdown (Cut Chemist Remix)”

Throwback to Blondie’s 1981 holiday cut “Yuletide Throwdown,” re‑released four years ago with Cut Chemist and Fab Five Freddy — a funky downtown classic.

It’s that time of year when the holiday playlists get a little funkier — because it’s officially been four years since Blondie re‑released their festive cult favorite, “Yuletide Throwdown (Cut Chemist Remix).”

Originally released in 1981 as a rare Blondie holiday one‑off, the track resurfaced decades later with full force, pairing Debbie Harry’s cool‑as‑ice delivery with Cut Chemist’s turntable wizardry and a feature from hip‑hop pioneer Fab Five Freddy. The result? A holiday track that refuses to behave like one — groovy, downtown, disco‑punk energy wrapped in tinsel.

A perfect seasonal spin for anyone who prefers their Christmas music with attitude, rhythm, and a little New York grit.

And the best part? Debbie and Fab are still throwing down in NYC — two icons who helped shape the city’s cultural DNA and continue to embody its electric, ever‑evolving spirit.

Press play and let Blondie soundtrack your holiday chaos.
