Chillcast #294: Girls & Boys

This week I’ve got a chilled mix of downtempo, electropop, and deep house with both male and female vocals – sometimes even in duet. This set straddles the line between ambient and pop, if such a line even exists… It feels a bit wintry, but rest assured, there are no holiday songs. I’m saving those or the show right before Christmas. Hey, I’m really excited about the big Lovespirals Holiday Sale on Bandcamp — you’ll hear all about it at the top of the hour.

Chillcast #290: Darkly Pop

While putting together today’s play list I seem to have taken a bit of a dark turn. In this one hour set of often pop edged electronica tunes, there is quite a bit of darkness, but there’s also a lot of power. With generous helpings of old time blues and jazz amongst the uber  modern electronica productions, there are some very interesting contrasts going on. And did I mention there are tons of top notch artists included? With some amazing vocals? And bunches of free downloads, to boot? Enjoy!

Chillcast #283: Sad Pianos

This week the tie that binds my song selections together is the piano. It seems that a number of new songs have come my way with haunting piano melodies, and while a single piano song can stick out amidst my primarily electronica sets, when I started placing them all together, it was magic. I hope you enjoy this beautiful, melancholic set featuring piano in a variety of different musical settings and moods. And don’t forget to check out this week’s Chillcast Video, linked to below. Enjoy!

Veteran of the New York club music scene and fellow vegan, Moby, has appeared on my podcast multiple times, but this is his debut on Chillcast Video. He recently made the official video for his recent single, “The Day,” available as a free download on the Moby Vimeo page in a sweet hi-res format. The Destroyed (Deluxe Edition) iTunes LP includes a behind-the-scenes video for “The Day” — as well as 3 videos Moby filmed himself using a camcorder. Oh, and yes, that is the actress Heather Graham in the video!

Chillcast #262: Pinku Vääty Contest

Put this week’s show together extra early as I’m heading out to SF to hang with Karmacoda and get a sneak peek of their album, Eternal. Yay! But the 5 year anniversary celebration continues with another great contest. This time around we’ve got the international man of mystery, Pinku Vääty, who also makes his debut on the show today. This episode has a bit of a retro 80’s vibe, with lots of funky synths and soulful vocals thrown into the mix of various electronica genres. Plus there’s a couple great free downloads. Enjoy!
