Kahvi Sound Sessions 005

Welcome to week number 5 in the kahvi sound session series. For this week we offer some goodies at both the beat/glitch and the ambient realms. Starting us off is Slem, with a nice touch of bionic sounding synths met with a creative drum loop. Esem and Audio Cephlon continue this phase until Stuart Elliot puts on the breaks. Acrillic Colors joins in at the end in one of my favorite tracks titled, Ununquadium Rarefaction. Hope you enjoy this.

Vibrations Vol. 7 scheduled to be played on DI.FM (Digitally Imported)

I just received a confirmation today from the heads at DI.FM (DigitallyImported.com) that Vibrations Vol. 7 (my Trance/Progressive mix series) will be featured on April 15th, 2008 @ 5PM EST If you already listened to the mix, go ahead and participate in the event anyhow. You can comment on the mix at DI's forums board. This is excruciatingly exciting for me as DI.FM has always been a home for me when it comes to electronic music. They are the largest electronic radio station on the internet, so this doubles big time. Plus, Vibrations Vol.7 has some very good tracks with some high quality transitions, DONT MISS IT

For those concerned about last week's missing podcast, fret not, school university is upgrading to a 1GB connection to the internet (which is about as close to the internet as you can be here at Illinois State University). None the less, I have one for this week, and it will be a continuance of the normal podcasts. With that, I will officially release Midnight Arboretum at 320kbps and its tracklisting. I'm also hoping Nik @ kahvi will get off his lazy ass and release it (only joking Nik).

Dj Polaski - Midnight Aboretum (part 2)

Here's the second part of midnight arboretum for your listening please! I'll post the full tracklisting AND full file download sometime this week! Remember, all the tracks you hear can be downloaded full length @ http://kahvi.org.

Dj Polaski - Midnight Aboretum (part 1)

Would like to introduce my third published kahvi mix featuring the artists at kahvi titled "Midnight Arboretum". If you dont know me outside of the podcast I've started mixing for kahvi about a year ago doing full CD length albums to be featured on their site. 4T (nik/choogy) saw great potential and offered me a spot on board. The podcasts featured before were crafted by me and I had alot of fun doing them, but now its time to show you a little bit of the my talent as a mixer when it comes to the full length stuff. Midnight Arboretum clashes with classic sounding techno-beats and soft ethreal tracks to provide a nice clean album. Featured this week will be part 1 of the mix. Part 2 will come next week and the full download of the mix will be featured then.

Remember, all the tracks you hear can be downloaded full length @ http://kahvi.org.

I'll provide a tracklist later!

Donation Request

If you've been reading you know that I have some bad news. Awhile ago, my computer blew and all of its contents (excluding one harddrive) literally went up in flames. So I'm making a huge effort to build a new computer. This donation drive is STRICLY for that cause, and that cause ONLY. All the money that I put forth towards developing mixes and mashups and buying tracks, equipment and sound editing programs come out of my own pocket. So if you like what you hear, feel free to donate. Here's how:

Paypal is completing confidential, when you make a donation, no matter where you are, I don't see any of the credit card or money order information, just a name and an e-mail. You don't even need a paypal account. You can location the "pay without an account using a credit card" to the bottem left. Plus if you make a donation, I'll let you into a little area where you can download unreleased kahvi mixes at any desirable codec including .WAV and .FLAC(I have 5 of them!)

My ultimate goal is $160. The purpose of the $160 is to buy a new computer sound system which boasts some great sound quality with a bunch of sound input and outputs including midi, optical, digital, RCA and a host of others. This will help me to develop new kinds of mixing techniques as wel as opening up a studio for a free friends of mine to officially make releases.

General Fuzz and Dj Polaski collaborate to make: Fusion

So if you've been keeping up lately on my recent release you'll know that I've been working with General Fuzz to make a collaborative continuous mix. Well it's finally up and ready to go! I'm proud to release Fusion. You'll enjoy this Electronic Jazz pieces with nice flowing grooves.

I'll upload the tracklist later:

This week will also feature a 3 track mix featuring one of Scann-tec's newer tracks, a golden oldie from xhale, and a glorious smooth downtempo/jazz piece from pece, an artist I've grown to love the past few months. Stay tune for next week, I'll be dishing out some more!
