Chillcast #277: Blessed

I’ve been incredibly busy lately with lots of new music to promote, but still I must admit that I’m blessed. Last week I saw my favorite young tennis player, Ernests Gulbis, breeze through his 2nd ever tournament win here in Los Angeles, this weekend I celebrated my beloved hubby’s birthday, and next weekend is our 6th anniversary. Historically we’ve kept our relationship on the down low, but this year I decided to tell the world, and the lyrics to “Blessed” were born. You’ll hear that song this week, along with a host of jazzy and soulful downtempo and deep house. Enjoy!

Chillcast #242: Thanksgiving Mix

So I know what all my American listeners have planned for this week; you’re all gonna be chillaxing, kicking back, eating food, having some drinks, hanging out with friends and family, and just generally relaxing. For me, music is always a big part of relaxing and hanging out with folks. So I figured I’d put together a chill, groovy set without any talking between tracks that you can enjoy this week. And for all my international listeners, heck, you can just consider this some bonus downtime! This is a sweet, soulful mix of instrumentals and vocal pieces. Enjoy!

Chillcast #179: Passionate

I’ve been told several times this week that I’m “passionate” and while that word might hold different connotations for different people, I would have to say that it could well be the one word that sums me up best. This show is one of my passions as I am very passionate about music and passionate about sharing new music that I feel will inspire passion in your lives. I don’t know about you, but when I hear a really good song, a particularly poignant lyric, a soulfully melodic riff, well, it’s a whole lot like falling in love. Music and love are almost synonymous for me. And on that note, today’s lineup is filled with sensual grooves, seductive vocals, and romantic lyrics. Feel the love, my friend, feel the love…

Chillcast #178: Classic Chillout

I was torn between titling this one “Classic Chillout,” “Classic Chillcast,” or “Lovely Ladies.” Today’s show is exactly that, a classic Chillcast mix of lovely chillout tunes with Internationally diverse female vocals. My favorite! I’ve had quite a few high quality trance tracks sent in recently, but this week I was really in more of a mellow mood so what we’ve got here is a nice collection of downtempo, lounge, worldbeat, r&b, and one little drum & bass tune for good measure. Enjoy, baby!

Chillcast #176: Departures

This week’s episode is all about returns and departures, simple joys and deep sorrows. Sometimes life is too complicated to express in words, and that is precisely when music is most needed. Music has the power to heal and uplift one’s soul, to soothe and allow contemplation, to help one remember or help one to forget. This eclectic set of tunes is my little sonic getaway during a tough time but it could equally be your celebration of a week well ended. Either way, life is just a big circle turning, with endless departures and returns…

Chillcast #175: Birthday Love

This is a special birthday episode for my favorite person in the world — Ryan Lum! I started this playlist back during the Wimbledon Open, thinking it would be a cute play on the word “Love” but it has since evolved with the addition of new music that fits the theme. Enjoy this mix of brand new and classic “love” songs of various electronica genres. I know Ryan would rather hear some classic rock with a great guitarist, but that would be a whole other podcast, wouldn’t it? Either way, HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY!
