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!

Chillcast #282: Every Direction

I’ve packed a lot of music into this 60 minute episode! After last week’s extended dance mix, I thought I’d bring things down a notch and focus in on lyrics this show. Towards the end I present a set of spoken word pieces, followed by 2 chopped up vocal remixes, but the rest are those dreamy vocal tunes you’ve come to expect from Chillcast. Though primarily chillout and downtempo, the pace picks up for the final third, and the whole show includes an interesting mix of styles.

Chillcast #279: Trippy

This week we explore some of the trippier new releases that I’ve been diggin’ but wasn’t sure how to fit in between chillout lounge and deep house. This is a chill set featuring intriguing vocals — many with interesting use of reverb or delay — and plenty of mood. The second half goes more soulful, with a heavy Swedish influence. I think this mix sounds really summery with distinct hints of late night vibe. Turn on your lava lights for this one! Oh, and be sure to grab the amazing free downloads included below.

Chillcast #274: Summery & Soulful

There’s so  much great new music coming in for summer I had to really cram to get everything in this episode! And there was still more I wanted to play… This set is just perfect for summertime with warm, soulful vocals and a nice variety of grooves that evolve from chillout and nusoul to soulful vocal house with a little blast of poppy trance to top it off. Just a couple free downloads this week, but they are doozies. Enjoy!
