Karmacoda ‘Love & Fate’ Album Features Anji Bee

Leave a comment

Bay Area band Karamacoda — long time friends of The Chillcast with Anji Bee and sometime collaborators with both Lovespirals and Anji Bee — have just dropped a new album called Love and Fate. Excitingly, Anji collaborated on a duet with band founder, B. “Naive” features lyrics penned by Bee, who recorded her vocals in The Chillcuts Studio with Lovespirals partner, Ryan Lum.

In an interview with Below Zero Beats B said:

“When we wrote our last record Eternal we asked Beth and Anji to join us on vocals for the track Love Will Turn Your Head Around and it was so magical, so beautiful, I wanted to recreate that experience even more”

‘Love and Fate‘ was released March 10, 2015 on Sola Musa Music.

Chillcast Video #73: Lovers + Poets

Leave a comment

This week I’m pleased to present the new video for “Only Bitterness Remains” by my friends, Lovers and Poets. The Silverlake duo of singer/songwriter, Shannon Hurley, and her bassist husband, Ben Eisen, released their debut self-titled album late last year and have been promoting it with a series of shows in the Los Angeles area ever since. If you live in the area, be sure to check out one of their upcoming January shows at Taix Lounge (1/11/2012) or Osaka Hollywood (1/5/2012). The band are offering a limited-time free download of their chill cover of the Nick Lowe song, “Cruel To Be Kind,” on Lovers and Poets Soundcloud page. Be sure to grab it while you can!

Chillcast #284: Equinox Mix

Leave a comment

This week’s Chillcast boasts a much more energetic set than usual, even finishing up with a set of vocal trance – a real rarity for the show. There’s also a set of deep minimal and soulful deep house midway through, and a whole clutch of great new songs out of Sweden – including 2 brand new songs by my favorite male vocalist, Ernesto! There’s also a set of 3 fantastic free downloads. While today’s show may be short on traditional “chillout music,” I think you’ll have no problem chilling out to it this Equinox. Enjoy! OH YES — next week I plan to release my special interview feature with Karmacoda, so watch for that!!!

I had to make this week’s episode all in one afternoon, but I think I really pulled it off! Luckily for me I received a number of tasty tracks in my inbox, and found quite a few other gems via Music Alley, IODA, and RCRD_LBL. Get ready for a sweet mix of vocal and instrumental downtempo, deep house, world beat and electropop songs in the classic Chillcast style. Laaaiiid baaaccck…. Lots of new artists to the show this week!

Chillcast #185: Unwind

5 Comments

This week’s episode is quite reminiscent of my short-lived podsafe music podcast, Unwind, which – in case you aren’t familiar with it – was designed to be listened to as you drift off to sleep. You see, I had a mind shattering headache the day I put this together, so I really needed to keep things chill. Expect a soft mix of quiet sounds, soothing voices, and beautiful atmospheres in this one-hour show. I am taking “chillout” to a whole new level – so kick back, relax, and enjoy!
