This week’s one hour mix is especially deep and smooth with a nice balance of vocal and instrumental cuts.. Get ready to groove to a sweet selection of upbeat down tempo including some true masters of their craft. The show starts out on a slightly more mellow tip then gently ramps up to some fantastic Deep House and Pop crossover tunes that you’re sure to love. Don’t forget to download the AMAZING free mp3s included in the show notes. OH, and what a game tonight!!! Lakers back to back championships HELLS YEAH!!!
This week is a real grab bag of genres on The Chillcast. From soulful and funky to jazzy and retro to futuristic and cool, I cover a little bit of everything in this one hour set. There’s been some excellent songs I’ve skipped over the past few episodes so I decided, come hell or high water, I’d play them on the show today! So kick back and enjoy this deliciously eclectic mix of tunes, and don’t forget to grab the excellent free downloads.

Hey ya’ll! This week I decided to break it down and do it old school with a Chillcast that is completely stone cold chillin’. No high energy trance, disco house, electro pop or whatnot this episode, this is all laidback beats. Look forward to a relaxing mix of vocal tunes and instrumentals, with a mix of soul, jazz, and worldbeat elements for added zest. Lotsa brand new tunes in here, a couple of free downloads. Its all good.

This week I bring you more love songs to chillout to. We’re back to the regular one-hour format with commentary on all the tracks. If you missed last episode, be sure to check it out as it was a special 90 minute DJ style mixed jam packed with romantic tracks. Oh hey, one thing I forgot to mention in the show and that’s congratulations to Dave’s Lounge on the show’s 5 year anniversary! Say, if you haven’t already, be sure to check out Chillcast Video #40 with Clarisse Albrecht and my Mevio Today Top 5 video spot.
In case you haven’t been following my complaints on Facebook or Twitter, I am sick. Boo! But I still took the time to put together an extra special show filled to the brim with LOVE. There were so many great songs that I wanted to share with you that I included a whole half hour extra. The DJ mix styled show (no talking between tracks) is about 50/50 chilled downtempo and upbeat dance tunes featuring oodles of lovely female vocals with romantic lyrics. Share this mix with someone special and get your spring fling on!
As I was casting around for show subtitles this week, I tried to mentally sum up the musical theme; the music is partly mechanistic but also quite soulful in spots, and then it hit me: the Filterwolf song title was perfection! In addition to describing the music mix, it has the added bonus of being an allusion to Sasha Vujacic, who is slated to return to play with the Lakers for their first game of the Western Conference Finals this weekend. GO MACHINE! GO LAKERS! OK, Vujachick fangirlism aside, this is an interesting episode filled with a kind of cosmic, other-worldly beauty. There’s 4 very cool, totally legal free downloads this week, so be sure to grab ’em!
This week’s Chillcast includes some truly top notch artists who are offering free legal downloads of their latest songs and remixes – YAY! I just love sharing free legal chillout mp3s with all my loyal listeners. But hey, please be sure to check out the rest of their albums, as well. Today’s episode begins with a friendly nod to last’s week’s popular world beat chillout mix, then slowly ramps up into some serious dance grooves by show’s end. Hey, happy Mother’s Day to all the momma’s in the house. 🙂

Get ready to chillout to one hour of Eastern World influenced and/or created electronica music. This set is chock full of mysterious vocals, soothing flutes, intricate percussion, tinkling cymbals plus plenty of groovy beats and sultry rhythms. I say “Eastern World” because its a mix of Far and Middle East music influences in this set. Of course there are copious Western influences, as well. There’s 5 free downloads this week, care of Promonet, so be sure to check those out!
With the ominous sound of raging winds outside my studio window, I put together a set of sweet, sweet vocal tunes to soothe the soul and bring peace to my agitated mind. And lucky you, you get to experience this bliss, as well! In classic Chillcast form, we start out with laidback chillout in the first half and slowly work our way up to smooth minimal tech house and close it out with my two favorite Göteborg vocalists. Lots of great free downloads this week, so grab ’em while they’re hot!
Well its the dreaded Tax Day here in the good ole USA as I record the show and type up the shownotes for ya. Like many of my fellow Americans, I got rocked by Uncle Sam. My only consolation now is great new music and awesome free downloads, and luckily I’ve got both of those in spades! So let’s all settle down and get ready for some serious chillaxation – whether or not you had to pay taxes out this week. Don’t forget to come add yourself as a fan of The Chillcast on Facebook!
