Half of the songs in this week’s episode are available as free downloads, and two come from the new Revolutionary Music Presents Organica Lounge compilation. It’s one of the few quality compilations I’ve gotten recently to come from a label other than Sine Music. (Which, incidentally, is also represented at the end of this week’s show.) If you run a chill music label and want to get your music on this podcast, drop me a line at daveslounge@gmail.com, and I’ll give it a listen.

I know I created this show to be a getaway from your everyday life, but something has made me look at our everyday lives in a very different way, and it’s something I have to get off my chest this week. If you haven’t seen the movie Collapse, I highly recommend watching it. It will change the way you look at everything — and really, I don’t want to be the only one who goes through such a change.
If there’s something positive about this week’s episode, though, it’s this: I found out what Joanna de Seyne’s been up to these days.

Did your home nation’s team bomb out of the World Cup? Are you upset that the refs keep getting the calls wrong and the powers that be FIFA has no interest in helping them get it right? Put all that aside for a few minutes and just chill to some great tunes from some regulars to the Lounge and a couple of new artists…

A few folks out there know I’ve gotten myself involved in the blues dancing scene on the east coast in the last couple of years — not only as a dancer, but as a DJ. It’s a rare occasion that I get to play anything from this show during a dance, though sometimes a little downtempo slips into my mixes, just because some folks like it. It’s even rarer that a song I first heard at a blues dance makes its way into this show. In fact, I think this week is the first time that’s happened…

This might be the first Dave’s Lounge episode recorded on location. I’m on a vagabond vacation of sorts up here in Philadelphia, where I stood and sang with the American Outlaws at the USA v. Turkey pre-World Cup friendly, and where I plan to DJ a few blues dances until their big swing dance shindig next weekend. In the meantime, I’ve got some music that should see you through on your own travels…

It seems to be inevitable that at least once or twice a year, I fall behind on listening to music submissions and hunting down new music. It’s just cyclical thing, and I’ll get caught up here fairly soon. In the meantime, I’ve pulled some good listening music for you this week’s show…

So I was trying to whittle down the music I wanted to put in this anniversary show, and it proved to be a nigh-impossible task. There was too much good music from the last five years. That’s when I got the idea — what was I listening to before I opened Dave’s Lounge?
That’s the basis for the 5th anniversary mix. Some of these songs I’ve played before here, and a few others I haven’t. Overall, though, this should give you an idea of the music I was listening to in the years before anyone knew what a podcast was. I dug this stuff. I think you’ll dig it, too.

Carmen Rizzo is one of those producers whose influence has been as quiet as it is omnipresent. He’s produced music for big names like Alanis Morrisette, Seal and Coldplay, while at the same time creating lush electronic soundscapes with Dave’s Lounge visitors Delerium and Azam Ali. He was one-half of Povi, a sadly slept-on duo who only released one album on Nettwerk Records. So when he teamed up with Nancy Kaye and Ireesh Lal to form Lal Meri, it shouldn’t have surprised anyone that their self-titled debut album was such a standout. This is a trio that’s going places.

All India Radio, the musical brainchild of Australian Martin Kennedy, has been a mainstay on this show since I first played "For Angel" way back on Dave’s Lounge #29 in December of 2005. It was the 2008 release of Fall, however, that took All India Radio to another level. Kennedy teamed up with vocalist Leona Prue and a handful of great musicians to put together one of the best downtempo albums of 2008 and possibly the entire decade. This one’s going to be hard to top. Here’s hoping Kennedy doesn’t stop trying.

It was Natalie Walker who informed me about Dive Index, the brainchild of minimalist electronica producer Will Thomas. Dive Index’s debut album, Mid/Air, combined IDM glitch with quality songwriting in a style somewhat reminiscient of Björk, yet still sounding like nothing else I had ever really heard before. This was my favorite album of 2007, and I do hope Will gives us a sequel soon.
