Ahhh, another episode that’s full of surprises. Atiim Chenzira rocks us with his smokin,’ seductive call to physical pleasures with “Feel It (remix).” Then we segue into a couple of netlabel goodies that have a bit of guitar in them (thanks to Phlow for helping me discover Monomatik through their “Destination Cologne” compilation!), then a lovely fusion track from Serbian producer Antanas, some dubstep from Bojcot Selectah, and then we descend into more chilled vibe throughout the rest of the episode, with tracks from artists on Jamendo, with netlabels, and a track from SINE music’s latest release, among others.

Another one of Suhov's projects, Jószomszéd, has a track in this milestone episode
uploaded 08 August 2009
AAC version (iTunes, iPod, with graphics)
It’s a milestone — episode #50 — with 13 horizon-expanding tracks. Let’s put on our headphones and celebrate together…
Andreas Schneider of the XtraChill podcast in Germany joins us to introduce the first track, which he chose just for us: Adult Only’s “Overlove.” Find it on Jamendo.
After the sophisticated chill of Adult Only, we get into some electro fusion: enjoy Tikki Masala (from Belgium) and Metastaz (from France), with “Maha Devi Shamboo” and “Resistance.” From there we move into some trip-hoppy beats:Motown Junkie’s “Farlopa Satanica,” Jószomszéd’s gorgeous, soulful “Csak az olvassa,” from their new album “Az ajtó,” Degiheugi’s eclectically epic “Mes nuits tziganes,” Geigermeister’s “Slow Groove,” and Flow Inc’s delicately heavy “Lost and Found,” from his EP, “Controlled Variables.”
Then, with a nod to earlier episodes of this podcast, we include a track from Germany’s Calm Be: “Again” — another classic gem from the Sofasound netlabel, which presented a gold mine of brilliant music circa 2005, but has not been updating its site for awhile.
The last three tracks are some of the many goodies of Jamendo.com: Maya de Luna, with the electro-chanson track “Les ondes de survie,” Pavel Fomitchov, with “Erotic Dream,” from the wonderful Tunguska Chillout compilation series, and Brazil’s Kaparao, with “Ybytyrama,” a lovely, soaring track that will leave you feeling really good.
Thanks for listening … it’s wonderful to have 50 episodes online for you to enjoy. Please send me an email to let me know what you enjoy, or what you’d like to hear on future episodes. See you next time!

Master Margherita is one of the many great artists in this episode, with a track from his new album, "Hippies with Gadgets"
uploaded 21 July 2009
AAC file (iTunes, with graphics and links) MP3 version (no album art or links)
Starting with some heavy beats from Suhov, this episode combines some powerful trip hop and vocals with some ambient beats and downtempo grooves, and ends with a midtempo track.
Let’s look at some of these tracks. Merge of Equals is the latest artist to emerge with an album from SINE Records in Germany. The album, “Intoxicating,” releases on 24 July and you’ll be able to buy it from the usual suspects (iTunes, Amazon, and Beatport, for example). I hope you enjoy this track, “Hoshi No Namida,” just one of many good tracks on this album.
Celeste Lear joins us with “In the Middle,” from her first album, “The Echo Inside.” Celeste has two albums for sale on iTunes and through CDBaby, and she’s an integral part of Digital Bliss: with Divasonic, she co-produces compilations of women electronica artists. As you might imagine, I like this a lot. Celeste and Divasonic are going to do a special episode of “Expand Your Musical Horizons” in a couple of months.
The Warheads are back with yet another smooth track from their arsenal of great music. JRS tells me that they stopped naming their tracks, so this one is simply titled “06″ and it’s from their album “Telstar 18,” which you can download from their website.
Elon, an Armenian singer who lives now in the USA, is featured here (courtesy of Ioda Promonet) with “Armenian Girl,” from his album “Temptation,” which is for sale on iTunes and other online sites.

Arthur Loves Plastic, a prolific and talented artist in Washington D.C., is back with “Bring in the Night,” from her newest album, “King Shag,” which you can also buy from iTunes. Arthur Loves Plastic was in an early episode of this podcast back in 2006, and it’s good to have her back.
I’m happy to say that we’re also featuring a track from Master Margherita, from his new album “Hippies with Gadgets,” which you can buy from him directly through his website. The track is called “Koto.” Master Margherita makes a lot of amazing music, both as a DJ and music compiler, and as a performer. Please take notice of his own podcasts. Thank you, Margherita, for your inspiration!
The Zengineers are featured here with a slightly older track “Les rites de passage,” from their album “Mental Maps for Large Territories,” on the id.eology netlabel in Germany. Phour Trakk, whose track “Spirit Cave” comes up next, is part of the Zengineers lineup.
Guitoud is new to this podcast, but I like his music a lot…this track, “Long & Far,” is from his release “I & I” on the wonderful Fresh Poulp netlabel in France.
Music Inside, from Canada, has a track here called “Pic du Midi,” which you can buy along with their album from Magnatune.com or some other online sites. Music Inside is made up of two talented and highly accomplished musicians …listen to the podcast announcements at the end to find out more.
And finally, the midtempo track comes from Arthur Oskan vs. Spiral into the Storm…it’s called “Sun Squall,” and it’s from their “New York City People” EP, which you can buy from iTunes. Thanks to Decibel Palace for this one. (Note: I mistakenly announced in the original version of theshow that this was released through Electronic Eel Records, which is incorrect.)

Guillaume Shine Simon introduces this episode, and a track from their album, "The Common Station"
uploaded 8 July 2009
download AAC file (iTunes, with graphics) MP3 file (for everyone else)
This episode is full of trip-hop, soulful grooviness. Starting with an introduction from Guillaume of the popular trip hop ensemble, SHINE, we launch into SHINE’s opening track (“Soulful Music”) from their album “The Common Station,” which you can buy from iTunes, Amazon, and other online sellers. Every track on this album is enjoyable from beginning to end, so I highly recommend that you buy it. Guillaume informs us that they’re working on a new album with Terry Reid that should come out later this year. Can’t wait!
The beats and grooves continue throughout. There’s quite a few Jamendo artists in this episode: Screenatorium, from France, with “Addiction,” Wasaru, also from France, with “Old Story,” Chill Carrier, from Germany, with “Me and My Rocket,” and Shyam Monk, from India, with a memorable and enchanting world groove called “Orphan’s Song,” that will leave you thinking “how can I hear more from this guy??” It’s that good.
The netlabels have solid representation here, as well. The artist Lost Soul Refugeis here with a track from his new release on the Dusted Wax Kingdom netlabel, called “Black Orchid.” PinocChio SP from Germany shares a track called “Last Days,” released on a compilation on the Konsum netlabel in Germany. Phour Trakk has a totally chilled groove called “Running on Karma,” and there’s a soulful, sample mashup from Ate One that sounds like Archie Bell and the Drells have arrived in the 21st century, both from the Id.eology netlabel in Germany.
Three more independent artists have tracks in this podcast, and you’re sure to enjoy all of them: Di Evantile (also known as Oleg Somov), from Kazakhstan included “Storm,” which has some nice breaks in it. (Di Evantile also has several albums for sale on CD Baby, iTunes, and more.) Leon Somov from Lithuania has the Brazilian flavored “Mano (Arclab and Nearth, the Parentheses remix)” with Jazzu. And there’s yet another track from the prolific and wonderfully trip hoppy Suhov in Hungary: “Tinilányok Alma.”
Enjoy the music. And please support these artists and netlabels by buying …or licensing …their music and spreading the word about them: turn it up and let it be heard!
