Chillcast #329: Positive Vibes

2 Comments

I spent some time today going through a ton of new music promos and picking out some real doozies for ya. This week the show is quite upbeat, bouncy even, and filled with positive vibes. Today’s one hour mix flows effortlessly from laid back, funky nudisco to funky vocal deep house. Its a sensual one hour set, and half of the dozen songs are legal free downloads. Check out the links to those below!

Happy Holidays (Lyrics)

2 Comments

“Happy Holidays” – Anji Bee Single (2010) + Lovespirals Ornamental (2012) 

I hung up the lights
They’re blinking merrily
Its got me thinking back
To how things used to be
I’m feeling kinda blue
From remembering you
And how I used to feel

I would give you a call
If I only knew how to
Just to say happy holidays
Happy holidays to you
(x2)

I went to a party
They’re drinking merrily
Its got me thinking back
To how things used to be
I’m feeling kinda blue
From remembering you
And how I used to feel

I would give you a call
If I only knew how to
Just to say happy holidays
Happy holidays to you
(x2)

I would give you a call
If I only knew how to
Just to say happy holidays
Happy holidays to you
(x2)

Note: This song was originally recorded and released in 2010 as an Anji Bee single, in a disco house style. Oddly enough, the holiday track sprung from a discarded song called, “One More.” Scrapping that song’s vocals, she found some holiday themed lyrics she’d penned several years before and came up with a whole new vocal melody for the abandoned house track. In 2012, Anji’s band, Lovespirals, were invited to contribute something to a new holiday compilation on Projekt Records. Rather than cover a tired Christmas classic, the duo reinterpreted “Happy Holidays” in a melancholic dream pop style.

Chillcast #328: Rainy Daze

3 Comments

Well I don’t know what its like where you live, but out here in Los Angeles its been raining for days. We Southern Californians are spoiled rotten by the sun, thus a string of grey days tends to send us into a funk. So if today’s show seems a little more melancholy than usual, you’ll know why. There are some truly beautiful tunes in today’s one hour set, and all but 1 song is free to download. Enjoy!

Chillcast #327: NSFW

6 Comments

The USA is celebrating Thanksgiving this week, which means many of you have time off work. Taking advantage of that fact, I thought I’d do a “Not Safe For Work” mix. So those of you listening to this amongst co-workers or children, be warned. F-bombs will be dropped, amongst other naughty words. I’ve gathered up an hour long collection of potty mouthed tunes that still manage to be quite chill, despite their sometimes jarring language. 11 of the 13 tracks are FREE downloads, grab ’em from the links below.

Chillcast #326: End Of Time

2 Comments

Boy was it tough whittling down my musical choices to just an hour today! Lots of great stuff has been surfacing recently, so much so that I can hardly keep up with it all. Today’s show has a nice mix of urban, dubstep, and drum ‘n’ bass influences. I start it off pretty mellow but the second half of the show is more upbeat than usual. I’ve got 9 legal free downloads in this set of 13 songs, be sure to grab your faves from the links below.

Lovespirals On New Projekt Holiday Compilation

Leave a comment

Lovespirals recorded a brand new rendition of Anji Bee’s original track “Happy Holidays” for a new Projekt Records holiday music compilation. This new version is classic Lovespirals dream pop with its soaring ebo guitar and glacial tempo. Anji’s vocal are by turns sensual and sublime, with a mournfulness befitting a shoegazer version.

Ornamental is available in either gatefold CD or digital download from Bandcamp and other online music services.

From Projekt Records:

Stuff your stocking with Projekt’s special blend of steampunk, dark cabaret, gothic, dreampop, Medieval and ethereal-flavored winter classics. Ornamental celebrates in style with one disc of holiday traditionals and one disc of originals in a holiday mood, all designed to woefully delight your friends and puzzle a few of your family members. 

This holiday 2-CD set contains 20 previously-unreleased tracks recorded exclusively for this compilation as well as three tracks only available on obscure compilations. It’s an artfully-wrapped holiday treat direct from your favorite Projekt artists with some well-chosen guests. 

The cover features Deerboy and Sapling sharing secrets by Canadian artist Paulina Cassidy. She taps into a world of magical creatures, creating and sharing her own brew of whimsy. Her unique vision and fanciful designs are collected worldwide.
