What DJ behind viral 'Mongolian Jingle Bells' actually looks like as he shares 'much better version' of song

The DJ behind the viral 'Mongolian Jingle Bells' track has been propelled into the spotlight in recent days - but who actually is he?

'Jingle Bells' is perhaps one of the most famous Christmas songs out there - a song you can't alter under any circumstances, right?

Well, ahead of December 25, one DJ released his own version of the ancient show, now dubbed the 'Mongolian Jingle Bells'.

Ummet Ozcan's new rendition of the classic has been called the 'best version so far' and had people say they 'would have way more fun shopping if this played in the stores.'

The take of the 1857 Christmas song cuts most of the 'dashing through the snow' lyrics, simply repeating 'Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way, oh what fun it is to ride in a Mongolian open sleigh' in the country's traditional and unique singing style.

Following the release of the track, Ozcan, from the Netherlands, explained the purpose of the rehashed Christmas classic.

"This started as a fun idea… and thanks to your insane requests, it turned into a full song and music video," he said. "Hope this brings some warmth and joy in the days leading up to Christmas."

While the full version of the song is available to stream on YouTube and Spotify, Ozcan was seemingly not part of the music video that accompanies the track.

Ozcan shared a shorten version of the track to his Instagram account, dubbed by one fan as a 'much better version' of the song.

Many flocked to the comments section of the social media post to pose some questions about the latest festive hit.

"Is this your voice overlaid with an Al Mongolian? Or are you generating Al music now?" one person asked.

They continued: "Either way, ugh. We want the frequency of real humans makin."

Ozcan responded: "Always my real voice. But the interesting part isn't whether it's Al, but whether the 'frequency' still reaches you.

The DJ singing his own song allowed listeners to see what the creator behind the festive song actually looks like, as he did not appear in the music video.

Ozcan, originally of Turkish origin, specializes in the techno genre, but has produced music in big room house and electro house in the past.

Part of the appeal of the 'Mongolian Jingle Bells' is its unique use of 'throat singing', a traditional singing style used on the open plains of Mongolia, where a herder creates a melody by manipulating their vocal cords to sing two notes simultaneously.

It's certainly a banger I can't get out of my head!
