On Christmas Day, M.I.A. will gift her fans a new mixtape called Bells Collection.

The 16-track collection will be released via M.I.A.’s website, ohmni.com, on December 25th at 3:00 p.m. GMT. A press release describes the project as “a rebel storm, a synoptic edit of music, created and mixed in Angel, London by M.I.A in December 2023. M.I.A embellishes sounds and words sampling a spectrum of artists and producers. Incredi-bell! The mixtape has a signature sound that purposefully spans time, geography, race, age, space. A limitless, genre-less, frequency. A true and fresh audio-bell vibration. A ding-a-linging in your ears.”

The tracklist includes songs titled “FREE PALI” and “BELLA HADID,” as well as collaborations with Skrillex, Blaqstarr, and Troy Baker.

In a statement, M.I.A. wrote, “I PRESENT YOU A GIFT FROM THE EAST, STAR OF WONDER STAR OF NIGHT. BEAUTY. BRIGHT. SACRED. COSMIC. MAGNETISM. A COLLABORATION W/ GOD, LIMITED EDITION HEAR IT ONLY ON OHMNI.COM.”
