Chillcast #269: In Darkness

5 Comments

This week’s episode is a bit darker than most, but still quite beautiful and filled with poignant vocals, heavy on the male side. Its dedicated to my elderly cat, Monster, whom I love like my own son. He was born in my house 18 years ago and has lived with me his whole life, so he really is family. Anyway, you’ll hear more about him in the intro… There’s quite a few high quality free downloads this show, so be sure to grab those for your iTunes library. Enjoy!

Chillcast #266: Rapture Mix

2 Comments

Some people are convinced that The Rapture will occur this weekend. If that’s the case, then I figure we’re gonna need a really good playlist for the occasion. From darkly contemplative ambiance to celebratory booty shakers, this set runs the gamut, encompassing both the light and the dark.  With beat matching, crossfades, and dropped in samples, this week’s show is completely DJ style, with no talking in between tracks. I want to dedicate this set to fellow DJ and KUCI alum, Clay Young, who passed away earlier this week. You will be missed, baby!

Weird name for the show today, I know. Its just that I noticed I had unintentionally included 3 cover songs in today’s mix of chilled downtempo and deep minimal house. This is a really sweet set today, with plenty of variety in genres and styles, all with a lovely laid-back vibe. As I mentioned in the show, I have extended the Grooveblaster album contest and the Karmacoda CD-single contest, so be sure to get your emails in now. The Chillcast Pinku Vääty Contest is still ongoing, as well, so don’t be slacking.
