It has been more than a year since the original "Bossa Chola" episode and I am pleased to say that I have finally created a sequel to one of my most highly regarded episodes. I was very happy to see a huge selection of Bossas, both new and old, available on just about every major MP3 outlet online. This is quite a change from the last time I decided to put together a show dedicated entirely to bossanova which required a huge ammount of time digging through old cd's and compilations.

November 2008 brings you another installation of smooth bossanova and samba with a twist of lime. This podcast is a mixture of classics as well as neuvo bossa nova that is sure to completely mellow you out. If I had to define lounge music with one style, it would definitely be with Bossa Nova. This is a perfect mix to play while enjoying your favorite martini with friends.

Be sure to tune in next month for the "Best of 2008" episode. I can't believe it is already that time of year!

Here is this month's tracklist...

01. Rosalia De Souza- Bossa 31 (performed By Gerardo Frisina)
02. Bossa Nova Scratch- Senhorinha
03. Marcos Valle- Nova Bossa Nova

Sour... yea, the last month has left a little bit of a sour taste in my mouth. Don't get me wrong, I am grateful for so many positive things in my life that overall, I feel pretty good. However, the loss of an old friend and two family friends this month has been a little overwhelming.

That being said, I heard a lyric in a song in this month's downtempo podcast that yanked me right out my melancholy madness. To quote Matsi... "my cup isn't half full, it's overflowing." I think that is the perfect way to look at life. No matter how tough things might be for you at the moment, I think that it is important to look around you and see all of the wonderful things that you DO have and, to thank God for each and every one of them.

I think a lot of us have been overwhelmed by the darkness that tends to make its way in to our lives from time to time. As Americans, every time we turn on the TV lately, we seem to be reminded of it. A scary economy, a wild election year, loss of jobs, bad weather...WHATEVER... it seems to be everywhere.

In this month's downtempo podcast, I have really worked to put together a show with songs that just put a smile on my face... I hope it does the same for each of you. Take some time this weekend, say a prayer for someone that needs it, do something nice for a complete stranger, snuggle with the one that you love most (it's SO good for the soul,) read a book, take a nap, pour a drink, listen to some positive music, and hang out with friends and family. Enjoy a "Happy Hour for the Soul," be happy, and remember, from darkness... comes light.

This month's podcast is dedicated to Christopher "Casper" Venuti and the friends and family he leaves behind. I hope angels dig beatboxing as much as we did. I raise my glass of Vodka Soda with a Twist of Lemon... for you. ;)

Hello everyone, I have a very exciting Special Guest Mix this month for your listening pleasure. Chris Lindsey from Slackline Radio was nice enough to put together a fantastic mix for the "Chill with the Chola" podcast entitled "Urban Sensibility". The mix is chock full of tasty hip hop influenced, "urban downtempo," and is almost a full hour of relaxing bliss.

If you are not familiar with Slackline Radio, well, then you have not been doing your downtempo homework now have you? :) Slackline Radio is an online radio station broadcasting all things downtempo from Anchorage, Alaska. Streaming music is available twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, so, you can get your downtempo fix any time that you feel the need. I visit this site almost daily and tune in for hours at a time. It is a perfect place to find new artists in the genres that I love so much.

On top of owning and operating an online radio station, Chris is also a contributing writer for Properly Chilled where he writes record reviews. If you are a downtempo artist, do yourself a favor and contact Chris. He is a super friendly guy who really loves the downtempo scene, and, he is respected the world over for his taste and opinion. If you are a "downtempo connoisseur," definitely check out Slackline Radio... you will not regret it!

Soooo, this month I decided to put together a nice, relaxing, downtempo podcast featuring some fantastic new chillout tunes and artists. I have found myself a little on edge the last 3-4 weeks because I am in the middle of Hurricane Central (Florida.) I really needed some music to chill out too! :)

I started digging for music for this episode weeks ago and found a TON of chillout, downtempo, ambient, trip hop, acid jazz, etc. I played around with the set quite a bit and it was tough to scale down the episode to a manageable 70 minutes. If you are "in the know" than you may have already grabbed the extended mix of this month's podcast. If you have not found the extended mix, and would like to, head over to the show's Myspace page, read the BLOG, and grab the link.

I hope this month's episode leaves you feeling as chilled out as it left me. Enjoy!

Here is this month's tracklist...

01. Trifonic- Parks On Fire
02. Amun- Red Eyes
03. Dousk- Anagram
04. Urban Myth Club- Breathe

Well I am back after taking a month off from the podcast and have decided to post August's podcast a few days early. Thanks again to Datapusher for covering me last month.

This month's downtempo podcast was inspired in part by my girlfriend's upcoming move to downtown Orlando. She found a killer deal on a "deluxe apartment in the sky," and, she is looking forward to being in the heart of the city. I must say that I am pretty excited too! It will be fun to get reacquainted with the city after living in the burbs for so long. There is so much more to Orlando than "a mouse." I am looking forward to seeking out some of the great food, music, and atmosphere that this city has to offer. It has been too long.

This episode starts off with a couple of "trip hop" tunes and quickly gives way to some stylish chillout, samba, and bossanova... ah yes, the bossas are back! Enjoy. :)

01. Peter Bjorn & John- Young Folks
02. Trifonic- Sooner Or Later
