  • The Dork Night Podcast
    Great Chemistry

    Really fun to listen to; the varying hosts have a very good chemistry/rapport, and their interactions are genuinely fun to listen to. The episodes I've listened to have been well structured, and the host has a great grasp of how to keep things moving. I'd check it out if I were you. Audio quality varies due to the teleconference-y recording (which is more than excusable); all the same, a perfectly enjoyable podcast.
  • UFO Paranormal Radio Network
    A terrific UFO interview, w/ feeling

    I sense something heart felt, almost too real, and a suffering. Absorbing & only the 2nd UFO case I can say I truly believe in really Tina

Well it looks like Datapusher over at Trans:verse Records must have enjoyed slowing down the tempo on his decks for the "Chill With The Chola" podcast because he has sent over a sequel to his Dubventure downtempo mix! This works out perfect for me because I would have really been pushing things to try to get a new podcast out by the ninth. Keep your eyes open for a set mid month by "yours truly," I will try my best to deliver one to you. If not, I will see you next month. ;) This month's downtempo podcast is the second installment of Datapusher's wildly popular "Dubventure." There was a huge response to the first episode and I am glad that Datapusher has decided to put together another mix for us. It is another hard-hitting, IDM/ Electronica, bass heavy, intelligent-glitch experiment in to the world below 130bpm's.When I asked Datapusher to explain what he was shooting for with this set, he responded..."I was shooting with a '12 gauge pump action' for bass heavy, mid tempo breaks tracks, bridging the gap between downtempo and bassline style breaks." Well, I would say that he has certainly accomplished that!This set reminds me of those "eyes-half-opened" after-parties spent in dark dens after a full night of clubbing. It is a moody journey in to the sofa surfing universe.Somewhere between full blown breaks or house music, and, what we might consider "downtempo," there is an extremely intelligent sub-genre of music created almost exclusively for "the transition." This music is not quite the club music that you were dancing to earlier in the evening, or, the more acoustic sub-genres of downtempo/ chillout that you want to enjoy when you awake, have a beer, and start that BBQ on a Sunday. However, it certainly serves a distinct purpose and there are some amazing artists working in this realm.This is a sub-genre of downtempo music that I hardly touch these days. Datapusher can still rock the dance floors, I stick to playing sets for the couches, dinners, and bedrooms. :) Datapusher starts his set off with an extremely "busy" set of tracks and slowly moves you towards a calmer place. When the set ends, the stereo almost begs you to wake up, put on some bossa, nujazz, or funk, and, get that BBQ started. Great job Datapusher! Enjoy,Chola Here is this month's tracklist... 01. Vibesquad - Dome Piece 02. Manitee Club - Someday (Lawgiverz Remix) 03.Vibesquad - Kaleidoscone 04. Dr. Toast - Logico 05. Mauxuam - Ulezak Snakebite 06. Good Budha - Party Reserve (Tipper Remix) 07. Amb - Theory 08. Heyoka - Glibidy Glob 09. Tipper - Noise Cannon 10. Next Level - Losted Self Purpose 11. Kilowatts - D

First off, my apologies for the delay in posting the "Best of 2009" podcast. A bad case of bronchitis really took the wind out of my sails (and my lungs for that matter.)

This month I decided it was time for me to explore one of my favorite styles of ambient music... "SPACE MUSIC." Now I know that my "Space Traveler Series" touches on the spacey side of ambient music, however, those episodes are still very much tempo driven. This month's downtempo podcast is comprised of music all but devoid of true tempo. The songs are much more freeform for the most part, only really driving tempos using arpeggiators or rhythmic sound. Space Music creates massive soundcapes that invoke mental imagery of far away worlds, stars, and nebulae. I have been a fan of Space Music since I was a child. I think the first time I ever heard this style of music was during a car ride home from the beach while listening to "Hearts of Space" on NPR... I was fascinated with it. I have tinkered with my own space music throughout the years and decided to include an original, improvisational piece of music that I created and recorded on the fly for this podcast. Here is a link to download my song free of charge... Download Here. While I am certainly an amateur at producing this wonderful music, I must say that it is an amazing experience to sit down to a keyboard and create it on the fly. Surrounded by LED's, LCD's, blinky lights, sliders, knobs... it almost feels as if you are piloting your own spacecraft through a universe of sound that you are creating with your own creative mind. I have a real appreciation for just how complicated it is to control so many timbers, morphing between sounds, tempos (or lack thereof,) keys... worlds... all the while keeping it all together, in a freeform flow of consciousness. Composers like Serrie, Gulan, Brennan, etc are true masters of this craft. I invite you to put on a pair of headphones, turn off the lights, lay down, hit play... and drift away in to a wonderful universe of sound. Don't worry, you will be back home in a little over 80 minutes. ;) Here is this month's tracklist... 01. Altus- For All Time 02. Kendall Station- Tether 03. Ulrich Schnauss- In Between the Years 04. Andrew Lahiff- Static Neon Flow 05. Gulan- The Black Hole 06. Jonn Serrie- Stratos 07. Chad Helenthal- Ambient Space Unknown 08. Thom Brennan- Raingardens Are you a Facebook user?
