Feel the love — double the love — with this twice-as-long episode of The Chillcast featuring love songs. I threw a few classics in with a great new batch of tunes from Promonet. Lots of sensual female vocals will help set the mood for romance in this extra sexy episode!
I must’ve had a subconscious aversion to turning 40 coz I totally announced this is “Episode 39.” *Sigh* Anyway, sorry for missing last week… I used some brand new music to make up for it! The time around I chat about my scandalous postman moment, how my new video iPod, chatting with Clarence, joining Twitter, and the People’s Choice Podcast Awards have had a positive effect on me, my Second Life avatar, Beth Hirsch playing New York shows, and Lovespirals remix news. This is the ShowGirls Episode I referred to. Looks like Franklin Ex changed their band name to The Glowering Eyes.
Just want to send some warm birthday wishes Ryan’s way today. Wind and waves willing, he will be out surfing all day, and taking it easy. But you could surprise him with an email over on lovespirals.com!
There’s a new song streaming in my Anji Bee MySpace player. It’s the brand spanking new Hungry Lucy remix of the unreleased Lovespirals song, “Motherless Child.”
4 bands were invited to remix our rendition of this classic anonymous blues song, including Hungry Lucy, Karmacoda, MoShang, and Beauty’s Confusion. We hope to release a digital single on iTunes with all 4 remixes, plus a special Lovespirals remix, sometime over the next 2 months. Stay tuned to lovespirals.com for details!
This week’s lineup is very chill and relaxing; chillaxin’! The smooth, sensual sounds will set the stage for seduction, no lie… Lots of new artists to The Chillcast, including several special permissions tracks. Yay!
As promised, here is a special edition of The Chillcast to tide you over. This time around it’s a spotlight on my various musical collaborations outside of Lovespirals over the past decade. I went through my archives and dug up one song per year from the various bands I have lent my vocals and lyrics to, which is actually quite a bit more than is shared here. I hope you dig this glimpse into my personal history.
Lovespirals’ long out-of-print 2000 EP, Ecstatic, featuring our very first recordings together, has been remastered and is now available digitally on Amie Street. This collection of jazzstep drum ‘n’ bass and downtempo club mixes includes guest musicians, Doron Orenstein and Gabriel D. Vine, of Monkey Bars, and photography by Susan Jennings.
