Its the time of the year when folks everywhere are decking the halls, burning yule logs, and kissing under the mistletoe — and I have just the right playlist to make your spirits bright. I’ve got a lovely 1 hour mix of sounds and styles, with elements of jazz, funk, ambient electronica, and more, with a blend of traditional and more modern Christmas sentiments. 9 of today’s holiday tunes are brand new for 2012, and 10 of them are free downloads — Happy Holidays!!!
Well its that time of the year, my loyal listeners, that time of the year we spread holiday cheer. Every year I think I won’t find enough new holiday music to make a set, but once again, I found a ton of new tracks for all of your holiday get-togethers. Excitingly, 11 songs are free downloads, check out the shownotes for links! This set flows from the serious and sublime to the downright silly, with a mix of traditional and contemporary sounds — and not all of it is strictly electronica. Nearly everyone included has been featured on The Chillcast before, and some of them are regulars, like Karmacoda, who open up the show with a brand new song released free to their fans this week. Merry Christmas everyone!
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.
As promised, here is the holiday show I put together for “Adam Curry’s Podshow” on Sirius Stars 102. It’s an interesting mix of electronica and indie pop. The one thing I can promise you is that it ain’t your typical cheesy Christmas muzak! I’ve actually got some holiday tracks leftover, so you may hear more yet this season…
