Dave’s Lounge #181: Back for 2010

Click to listen

Dave's Lounge re-opens for 2010 with a few changes:

1.) By popular demand, I've brought back the original theme music, my song "By Candlelight," which is now available as a free download on both Soundcloud and TheSixtyOne.com. At some point, I want to put this song on iTunes and eMusic as well, but that might be a few months down the road.

2.) I've decided to make Dave's Lounge a bi-weekly podcast, rather than a weekly podcast. This is in large part because of my struggles to keep this show on a regular schedule for much of last year. My hope was that the 200th show would coincide with this show's 5th anniversary, but now that it's clear this will not happen, I figure it's best to make this show fit my schedule, rather than the other way around. I know this will disappoint a few listeners out there, but bear in mind this is only one of several hobbies I'm pursuing, and I'm still trying to find the right balance for all of them. Hopefully, this will help.

Dave’s Lounge #180: The 2009 Yearbook

Click to listen

First off, I want to thank all the listeners out there who contributed to the 2009 Yearbook. As it was last year, some of the selections were obvious, while some surprised me completely. All, told, though, this is a solid mix of downtempo tunes that I'm sure all of you will enjoy.

This will be the last episode of Dave's Lounge for 2009, but don't worry. I'll be back in 2010 with plenty of new music for you. Stick around. We're still building something here.
