Chillcast Video #49: Anji Bee

3 Comments

The final 2010 episode of Chillcast Video features a little holiday surprise I put together for you!  Three days into editing together footage for this music video I almost gave up, but I’m glad I pushed through and got it completed.  Thanks to my Lovespirals partner, Ryan Lum, for his production genius on the tune and filming assistance on the video. I hope you enjoy my new single and video called “Happy Holidays.” You can download this video for FREE from the Lovespirals Vimeo Account. The song is available now on iTunes, Amazon, eMusic and other digital music retailers.

So here we go with the annual Chillcast Holiday Mix! I had lots of great Christmas and winter-themed tracks to choose from this year, with a nice variety of moods and musical styles. From classic songs to original tunes, vocal pieces to instrumentals, I’ve got a pleasantly varied mix of holiday music you aren’t likely to hear elsewhere in the pod-o-sphere. And some of these tracks are free, to boot! This was produced DJ mix style, so you can listen without interruption at all your holiday gatherings. Happy Holidays!

Chillcast Video #48: Jaswho? & Divasonic

2 Comments

Divasonic is back again on Chillcast Video with another great San Francisco-based musical collaboration with Jaswho?. “Push” hails from the new album, NuDroid Musik, which is the debut album of veteran live musician, Jaswho?. This music video was created by Divasonic using stunning photography by Jessica Vermette of VoxInLux. By the way, after recording my intros I found out I should have pronounced the artist’s name as “Jays-Who” — sorry Jay!

Chillcast #245: Long Dark Nights

3 Comments

With the shortened days and long dark nights of winter upon us, I was inspired to create a set of atmospheric tunes with a slightly darker edge. Much less vocal-based than many Chillcast episodes, this mix none-the-less contains a few vocal gems. Genre-wise, there’s a lot of diversity, spanning from worldbeat to drum and bass, Brazilian pop to dub step, minimal tech to deep house, with rad remixes galore. Plus there’s some sweet free downloads, to boot! Enjoy.

Anji Bee Releases Holiday Single

6 Comments

“Happy Holidays” is the first all-original holiday song released by vocalist/lyricist, Anji Bee, who’s perhaps best-known as the hostess/producer of weekly electronica music show, The Chillcast. Co-written with Ryan Lum (of Lovespirals and Love Spirals Downwards), Bee has crafted a deceptively bittersweet pop nugget filled with heartugging disco-infused violins, funky bass and wah guitar, and a relaxed house beat with a hint of cool wintry nights wafting through. Bee’s warm, enveloping vocals pleasantly recall Tracey Thorn (of Everything But The Girl) and Karen Carpenter with their laid back yet passionate delivery and personal holiday message.

Sometimes in the midst of the holiday hub bub of parties and pretty blinking lights one finds themselves reminiscing of the past and wanting to reconnect to a long lost loved one… just to say “Happy Holidays!”

Download “Happy Holidays” from the following digital stores:

Podcasters and Internet or Traditional Radio DJs are free to include “Happy Holidays” in their shows. Check out Anji Bee on Mevio’s Music Alley, formerly known as the Podsafe Music Network.

This week’s musical guest is Artemis with Divasonic. These two lovely ladies of electronica from San Francisco make their debut to the vidcast with a brand new collaboration. As I promised on the Chillcast #243, I’ve got the premier of their video for “Truth (Divasonic Cotton Candy Original Version)”. This song is from the duo’s brand new single which includes 8 other fantastic mixes by David G. Earl (aka SFLogicNinja), Colfax, Tyler Stone (Sutro), Daniel Durrett, Celeste Lear, Mijo and Chris James. There are also several very cool limited edition packages to choose from, including the Girls Night Out Package which includes additional remixes and songs by both artists. Check out it all on the Artemis & Divasonic Bandcamp sales page.

Chillcast #243: Thankful

Sorry this week’s show is a bit late. Things are always crazy around the holidays! But I promise it was worth the wait. I’ve got some great new releases this week. I’m also introducing a few new bands to the show. This week’s show is a bit heavier on male vocals than usual, though there’s also a few female vocal tunes and instrumentals. And as usual, I’ve got some amazing free downloads in the mix. Hope my American listeners are having a chill Thanksgiving holiday!
