Today I welcome to the show for the first time Glasgow band, Nyree and the Auto Charm. We’re checking out the summery video for “Tijuana,” the 3rd single from the band’s brand new debut album, Funky Tamborine. You can heart the title track, as well as their second single, “Ballerina,” on recent past episodes The Chillcast audio show. I’m sure I’ll be playing more from the band on both shows soon!
After the last show’s upbeat Summertime House Mix, I’m back with a more shadowy selection of music. Beautiful in the extreme, ambient tinged, and touched by sadness, this 60 min set features lots of lovely vocals – primarily female – with subdued beats. Flowing from chillout to lovestep to alternapop, the pace and mood picks up a bit towards the end. Well, you’ll see! Just kick back, hit play, and float away… Nearly all of these songs are free downloads, so grab your favorites from the links below!
Fresh from my trip to San Francisco, I present a 1 hour mix set of deep minimal tech house and soulful deep house. Got some vocal numbers in the mix, but less so than the average Chillcast. I don’t think I’m doing this booty shaking set justice with my description; just check it out, I promise you won’t be disappointed. Oh, I also announced the 5 lucky winners of the 5 Years of Chillin’ limited edition CD contest. Make sure to grab the free remix by OM Records stars, Dirty Vegas!
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!

Hey ya’ll! This week I decided to break it down and do it old school with a Chillcast that is completely stone cold chillin’. No high energy trance, disco house, electro pop or whatnot this episode, this is all laidback beats. Look forward to a relaxing mix of vocal tunes and instrumentals, with a mix of soul, jazz, and worldbeat elements for added zest. Lotsa brand new tunes in here, a couple of free downloads. Its all good.

Well its the dreaded Tax Day here in the good ole USA as I record the show and type up the shownotes for ya. Like many of my fellow Americans, I got rocked by Uncle Sam. My only consolation now is great new music and awesome free downloads, and luckily I’ve got both of those in spades! So let’s all settle down and get ready for some serious chillaxation – whether or not you had to pay taxes out this week. Don’t forget to come add yourself as a fan of The Chillcast on Facebook!

Today’s one hour mix will help keep you in a state of focus with its nice blend of instrumentals and vocals. The first half is more chillout oriented while the second half is an upbeat blend of dance and trance tunes. Once again, all the tunes are brand new for 2010. The whole show is composed from special permissions tracks sent in from the artists and labels, so there’s only one free download, but its a goodie, so be sure to grab it!
It was my birthday this week, but I still made time to put together a killer show for you featuring some of the biggest names of the downtempo genre. Thanks so much to everyone who wished me a happy birthday on Facebook and Twitter. You guys really know how to make me feel loved… My gift in return to you is a clutch of great free downloads. Enjoy! Oh, and look forward to a romantic Valentine’s Day episode next week. Woot!
