Hard to believe 2007 is over! Tons of great podsafe music was released last year, making it tough to come up with just 20 of my favorite songs! As I mention on the podcast, I limited my selection to PODSAFE tracks from 2007 that were previously played on The Chillcast. There were many great special-permissions tracks I played as well, but I limited myself to songs that every podcaster can legally play on their show. If you dig the music, be sure to support the artists by buying their CDs or downloads. And feel free to comment on my selections on the blog!
Lovespirals’ Motherless Child EP has just been released on iTunes+ and Amazon Mp3. This digital only release features 6 remixes of the first single from the duo’s most recent album, Long Way From Home. Artists included are Karmacoda, Hungry Lucy, MoShang, Chris Caulder of Beauty’s Confusion, and The Black Channel Citizen — plus one by Lovespirals’ own Ryan Lum. The songs can be purchased individually in high quality 256k AAC no DRM format for just 99 cents each or download the whole collection for $5.94
I’m back in town and gearing up for the release of my new album with several Second Life events! This week is a chill mix with lots of down home style guitar, inspired by my long road trip through fields and mountains. I’ve also got the winners of the MoShang contest and news about the Beth Hirsch feature!
Back from New Media Expo and enjoying the laptop stand I won with the ShowGirls awards. 😀 Got a superchill set for ya with several new bands to the Chillcast and another great CD contest!

A densely packed half hour of musical relaxation that includes some upbeat tracks and some moody mellow numbers. I share my latest remix from a free Creative Commons album and annonuce winners of both the Dave Bianchi and 2Tall contests. Fun times!
Ooh, it’s a bedcast! I chat about recent events such as Lovespirals being on the Projekt 200 3-CD boxed set, the Anji Bee CD Store, watching David Lynch’s Twin Peaks – The Second Season DVDs, designing the Long Way From Home digipac (and stuff distracting me from that), Mojitos on the beach, ShowGirls‘ surprising Podcast Awards win, my big LinkShare check, and more. Features Lovespirals’ “Motherless Child (MoShang’s No Place Like Home Mix)” from MoShang’s brand new Asian Variations Remix CD.
BTW, I went out and bought the Mbox Mini after recording and it kept kernal panicking my laptop so it looks like I’m taking it back to GuitarCenter for the FastTrack Pro. Anyone using that?
MoShang just released a full length remix compilation entitled, ‘Asian Variations,’ as a free Creative Commons download via asianvariations.com. The 14 track collection includes his “No Place Like Home” remix of Lovespirals’ new single, “Motherless Child,” from their upcoming October 2007 album. You can also stream or download just this track from myspace.com/anjibee or myspace.com/lovespirals, and podcasters can add it to their playlists via Lovespirals’ Podsafe Music Network Page. Plans are underway to release a digital only EP of “Motherless Child” remixes, so watch for news at lovespirals.com!
