Chillcast #210: More Mellow

2 Comments

Today’s set underwent a few changes before going into production. While the original mix was quite good, I felt like making it more mellow once I sat down to record. After a long day and a busy week, I was eager to chillax big time. And this set really hits the spot! So get set to chill out to an hour of new tunes in a variety of styles from artists both new and old to The Chillcast. Oh hey, sorry but the Deva Premal song is no longer available for free download from Promonet…

Chillcast #208: Hot & Cold

Leave a comment

This has been a really unusual week. I started it out in the desert sweating from a heatwave and ended it by the coast shivering in the wind. Somehow the music in today’s Chillcast is a bit hot and cold, as well. The dance grooves are quite gentle, though the emotions are strong. I didn’t plan it purposely, but there seems to be quite a few breakup songs in the mix. But don’t worry, far from being depressing, the overall feel of this mix is sensual and lush. Look forward to both female and male vocal tunes as well as a few instrumentals. And don’t forget to grab the great free downloads provided by some of the bands below!

Artist Of The Week: Sleepthief ‘Labyrinthine Heart’

Leave a comment

Its been 3 years since Justin Elwick’s debut album as Sleepthief,  but it seems his time has been well spent. This 12 track collection of new songs offers a subtle range of moods and emotions, helped in part by the delicious variety of vocals contributed by a veritable who’s-who of ethereal vocal collaborators. I would have said “divas” but for the notable exception of male vocalist, Coury Palermo, a welcome addition to the album’s otherwise female lineup. Returning guest artists from previous album, The Dawnseeker, are Kirsty Hawkshaw, Kristy Thirsk, Jody Quine, Caroline Lavelle, and Roberta Carter Harrison. Additional divas this time include Zoe Johnston and Joanna Stevens, both of Delerium fame, and both excellent choices for this project. The music flows effortlessly between symphonic New Age styled pieces such as “Here I Confess,” “Skimming Stones,” and “Ariadne,” to more upbeat pop-edged fare, such as “A Cut From a Fight,” “Fire King,” and the album single, “World Gone Crazy.” Labyrinthine Heart is available digitally on iTunes and Amazon Mp3, but I highly recommend picking up the CD for the gorgeous album art and booklet which includes the lyrics to every romantic song with amazing visual accompaniment.

A hearty thank you to Justin for allowing The Chillcast to host a limited time download of one of my favorite songs on the album!

Chillcast #178: Classic Chillout

7 Comments

I was torn between titling this one “Classic Chillout,” “Classic Chillcast,” or “Lovely Ladies.” Today’s show is exactly that, a classic Chillcast mix of lovely chillout tunes with Internationally diverse female vocals. My favorite! I’ve had quite a few high quality trance tracks sent in recently, but this week I was really in more of a mellow mood so what we’ve got here is a nice collection of downtempo, lounge, worldbeat, r&b, and one little drum & bass tune for good measure. Enjoy, baby!
