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.) Since I am already so late in posting this episode, I am going to forgo my typical "Best of the Best" editorial and just let the music speak for itself. For those of you that are regular listeners here at the Chill with The Chola podcast, you know that the "Best of" shows are a culmination, and celebration, of a year's worth of great music.

So, be sure to check out the Best of 2008 and the Best of 2007 as well. Each of the artists in this month's podcast are excellent.

Journey Into Space Music 11-05-09

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?

Oh yaaaaa! The drink of the day... it is something I am looking so forward to. For those of you that have ever been on a cruise, you completely understand how fun the "drink of the day" can be, and this month's downtempo podcast is inspired by just that. You see, I have an upcoming vacation that I am excited about. I am not taking a cruise (this time) but, we are going to carry over that wonderful idea to our trip in to unspoiled Florida. Good scenery, good fun, good drinks, and good company... who could ask for more? Well I guess me, because a good soundtrack to listen to while sipping the drink of the day is always a good idea. That is what this month's set is all about. It is leisure time! :) You are going to find a menagerie of music styles in this month's podcast. Jazz, Salsa, Bossanova (you know I love the bossas,) downtempo, chillout, funk... it is quite diverse. Is it cocktail hour yet? Here is this month's tracklist... 01. Nickodemus- Conmigo ft. Sammy Ayala & The Candela Allstars 02. Belladonna- Bossa Esfera 03. Milano Jazz Dance Combo- Sam Blues 04. Clarisse Albrecht- Voce Me Da´ 05. Crystal Stafford- My Secret 06.

This month's podcast is a continuation of my "Space Traveler" series and is once again dedicated to the folks over at Lounge Radio. I try to add an episode to this series every year and I figured it was time to slow things down, and, bring out the deeper side of downtempo for this month's show. I took a trip to Berlin in July and had an amazing time. I had the opportunity to visit a few clubs, lounges, and bars. It really seems that Germans love their Minimal Electronica. I was pretty surprised just how much that trip influenced my song selection this month. Almost inadvertently I found myself seeking out deeper, minimal types of music to mix along with ambient and chill out tunes. I am quite pleased with what came about from that subconscious decision. After listening to the complete episode, I am quite sure that Berlin has forever left its mark in my heart. This month's chillout podcast includes a wonderful selection of deeper chillout music, ambient, and what do you know... even a few minimal tunes. :) Enjoy! Here is this month's tracklist... 01. Vector Lovers- Rusting Cars & Wild Flowers 02. Marconi Union- Ginza District 03. Colt!- In Memory Of The Sun 04. The Black Dog- Train By The Autobahn (Part 1) 05. Mike Foyle & Augustine Leudar- De Bells Of Nafin 06. Krusseldorf- Insidious Doctor Mouse 07. Youandewan- 1988 08. Anomy- Arabian Coffee 09. Klangzeit- Deepdive 10. Marter- Potsdamer Platz ft. Ayako Akashiba 11. Sundayman- Iambic Seahorses 12. Mario Masullo & Andrea Gabriele- Few Birds 13. Astrid Suryanto- Distant Bar 14. Mike Foyle- Shipwrecked (Chill Out Mix) Are you a Facebook user?

So this month I decided it was time to finally follow up 2007's Jazz Steppin' episode with another dose of chilled out drum and bass. Jazz Steppin' is really about kicking up the tempo a bit but still maintaining a chilled out vibe. Lots of jazz, r&b, samba, and funk combined with intelligent drum and bass music. A lot of Drum n Bass is hard and edgy these days. It seems that you really have to dig to find the jazzier stuff which is a real shame. However, spend some time digging and you will stumble across some great artists still producing music with a softer, more "musical" sound. Heavy DNB is fine for doing some serious "dancing" or for working out. However, the jazzier stuff is what I want for sofa surfing and just chilling out. ;) > By the way, I just wanted to invite everyone that uses Facebook to join the Chill With The Chola group by clicking HERE.
