Artist of the Week: Merge of Equals

3 Comments

Germany’s Sine Music has become a staple of The Chillcast with their steady flow of laid back compilations such as Chillbar, Cosmic Chill Lounge, and Cool Off Chillout. One of the acts that consistently stands out from these collections is, without a doubt, Merge of Equals. Zurich producer, Flavio Maspoli, has collected 18 of his moody chillout singles to create the first-ever artist album for this comp-centric label. And the timing couldn’t be more perfect! With summer in full swing, this hour and a half long mix of lush instrumentals and exotic vocal tracks is sure to set the mood for drinks with friends out under the stars on those long, warm nights. Now you know I love female vocals so I’m pleased to note that this album features an International mix of lovely singers including Gina Estrada, Shunnae Love, Megumi, Sitta, Kotomi, and Fiona Daniel. All in all, Merge of Equals’ Intoxicating certainly lives up to it’s title with dreamy soundscapes and a loungey Ibiza mood.

Sine Music and Merge of Equals have generously allowed us to offer a free download of the song “Photic Zone” from this album for a limited time. You can also stream 3 other songs in full from the Last.FM site, so be sure to check it out!

Chillcast #172: Instant Bliss

11 Comments

A flood of fantastic new music came in over the 4th of July weekend, so this show basically put itself together. With a few tracks from the new Music Alley (formerly Podsafe Music Network) and Promonet thrown in and one more song from Chillcast Artist of the Week, Under, we have got one heck of a show today! Song premiers, remixes, and sneak peaks — even a Chillcast Exclusive — compose this lush, vocal filled show. Prepare to hit the “repeat” button, baby.
