It was a slow promo week, so I decided to scour IODA’s site for cool new music for this week’s show. A lot of great electronica and dance music has popped up over there, including several pre-releases which I just couldn’t resist playing for you immediately. I’ve also included some new tracks from releases we’ve already sampled in recent past episodes. The rad thing about IODA is that they make the songs available as free legal downloads for you listeners, so be sure to grab every track you enjoyed from this podcast from my official shownotes below. And to show your appreciation of the band’s generosity, why not go and buy the rest of the album as well?
This year’s Holiday Mix is bigger and better than ever! I’ve got a full hour of holiday music mixed without any talking between tracks, just at the intro and outro, so you can chillout as you shop, wrap gifts, travel, or party with friends and family without all of my gabbing. LOL! Tons of these tunes are free downloads, too, so throw them into your own iTunes mixes to share this holiday season. With remixes, covers, and original songs, this mix is sure to have something you haven’t heard before. Enjoy!
For your Mother’s Day listening enjoyment, I present a 90 min mix of downtempo electronica, world beat, and smooth jazz. Listen to the show as you chillout with mom. I want to wish a very happy Mother’s Day to my mom, who graces the special show artwork today. And as a special treat, most of these songs are FREE downloads – woot!
