Chillcast #296: Holiday Mix

Well its that time of the year, my loyal listeners, that time of the year we spread holiday cheer. Every year I think I won’t find enough new holiday music to make a set, but once again, I found a ton of new tracks for all of your holiday get-togethers. Excitingly, 11 songs are free downloads, check out the shownotes for links! This set flows from the serious and sublime to the downright silly, with a  mix of traditional and contemporary sounds — and not all of it is strictly electronica. Nearly everyone included has been featured on The Chillcast before, and some of them are regulars, like Karmacoda, who open up the show with a brand new song released free to their fans this week. Merry Christmas everyone!

Hi All! First of all, thanks so much Anjibee for including my track with Jared Jones in your chillcast! 🙂 While the old download links on his website are dead, we did this remix package exclusively as a free download so there’s no real illegal downloading! 🙂 We were actually planning to re-launch a download page this year but he’s been busy with a few projects and with holidays the time just got away from us. I’m glad to see that people are enjoying the track! Thanks again!

Great to hear from you! I know what you mean about time getting away during the holidays. But hey, there’s always next year, as “Last Christmas” never gets old. 😉 Great work, btw!

thanks for writing, DJ CDLM. I just checked into it, and you’re right; the site took down the free download! I also tried to download the 2009 archive which included all the versions of “last christmas” posted that year, and got an “unavailable” message for that, too. looks like jared jones doesn’t want the song distributed anymore. 🙁

Hey 😀
I really like your podcast!!
But there is a small problem:
I really love the “Last Christmas” track from Vibelicious…
But the download link does not work any more…
Do you know where I can still get it?
I can only find in google some links with it from file hosters but I am not sure if it would be legal to download them there…
thanks 4 your answer & have a great year 2012 🙂

ah shoot! i’ll have to have ryan take a look at that after the holidays. meanwhile it looks like you found my mixcloud page. should be very easy to share the podcast from there. thanks for writing and merry christmas to you! 😀

Great mix!! I tried sharing it on FB but the “share” button wasn’t working. Maybe it’s a browser thing.. I’ll try with FF or IE…

Thanks Anji!
