Artist of the Week - Michael E

Michael E is no newcomer to Beach House Radio, we have been playing various tracks and remixes from Michael for some time now and he is good friends with BHR favourite Charlie North.

In a recent chat with Michael, he explained how he "fell in love with music" at an early age and took piano lessons as a child. As he grew, so did his passion and involvement with music. While making his way around the US bases in Europe, he began to compose his own music. "As technology advanced, I got the idea that I could do everything; composing, producing, performing, mixing..." says Michael. "The technology became affordable and allowed my vision to come to pass."

We have added a host of new tracks from Michael to our playlist - Listen Live Now

Catya Mare - New Tracks & Awards

Long time listeners to Beach House will already be familiar with Catya Mare. We first featured Catya back in 2006, debuting some of her original tracks.

Since then Catya has been pretty busy. After a move to the US in 2007, she signed a record deal with a US label. More recently, she was nominated for the Hollywood Award last November and won the Billboard World Song Contest this February.

Despite all this, she has still found time to put together some great new tracks:

Catya Mare - Adventurous You
Catya Mare - Destiny
Catya Mare - Echoes
Catya Mare - Epic Love
Catya Mare - Finally Together
Catya Mare - Reminiscence (updated version)
Catya Mare - When I Met You remix

All playing in rotation - Listen Live

For more information about Catya, visit our main site (Beach House Radio) and click on the Friends and Music page or you can catch her directly on MySpace or via her own site Catya Mare.

More from Michael E next week.

New Track From Charlie North

Added to the playlist today is a great new track from BHR favourite Charlie North.

Chinese Whispers was written by Charlie and remixed by Michael E, another great artist you hear on BHR.

"Both Michael and I are very proud of this track and think it fits in perfectly with the Beach House playlist." says Charlie, "it's great to have you guys back as well".

It is with the help and support of great artists like Charlie that Beach House Radio has been able to keep broadcasting and their dedication to great music is what continues to drive us to make the best Chillout music station we can.

Chinese Whispers has now been added to our playlist - Listen Live to BHR

If you haven't done so already, you can check out some of Charlie's great video's on our You Tube channel - BeachHouseTV

For more info on Charlie North - www.CharlieNorth.co.uk

Final note - we have added a few (only a few mind) more streams, so hopefully you can get listening a little easier now. Thanks as always to Objekts.co.uk

Our full playlist will soon be availble via the website and blog pages. More great tracks and news next week from BHR favourite Catya Mare.

Artist of the Month - March 09 - Lemonchill

Okay, first artist of the month since our return. Lemonchill.

Great track now added to the playlist - En Larmes - check it out.

Meanwhile, here's what Lemonchill had to say to BHR:

"I grew up while listening to music all my life (all kinds of music:
60, 70, 80, jazz, electronic, industrial, gothic, synthpop, ambient, chill out, lounge, trance and more). In 2005 I finished my studies at BPM music college where I learned everything I know today. Since then for two years I have been making and creating music.

Now I am trying to combine all of these great music styles to one group in my album "SENTANT". It is a mixture of all those music styles. My album "SENTANT” (feeling in French) took me over one year to finish. It is very intense and personal, after a very painful relationship I went through. I guess this whole album is like a therapy for me to "let out" everything I had in my heart through music. The girl that was the "muse and inspiration" for this album will remain a mystery for now. I think everyone that heard my music can hear the emotions and feelings floating in my music as I wrote in the headlines: this music is for your heart and soul.
enjoy...."

Now playing - Beach House Radio

PS. Full playlist track details coming soon.

We're Getting There

Wednesday 25th Feb saw more new tracks added to the playlist. All tracks playing out at 128kbps. I have to say, listening to the stream myself, the quality is great. Anything over 128kbps causes some streaming problems for people listening via mobile internet or over an older wireless network.

Anyway, more tracks will be added over the next couple of weeks plus we will have our first new artist of the week next Wednesday.

Just a quick thanks for all the messages of support you have been sending us, we appreciate every one. YOU are the reason we needed to get BHR back up and running so quickly.

Hopefully we can add a few more streams as we get into the Spring.

Finally, we have entered the world of Twitter - BHR, always keen to jump on the bandwagon! Not sure how interesting it will be as we don't live crazily exciting lives. Anyway, check it out from the website if you desparately need to know if we are having a coffee or walking the dog!

Later.

Hey guys, we're back!

After a few long months of crying into our beer about our sad demise, we've got our act together and BHR is back on air.

Okay, so pro's and cons - for now, streams are extremely limited. As you may know, after our original broadcast was listed in the iTunes directory, we could not cope with the amount of listeners. So for now, we hope you can log onto the stream but if you can't, be patient. Oddly, I would ask for you not to pass our details on for the time being as I am sure we will be pretty full up with previous listeners.

Another con (for the time being) is that the playlist will be pretty basic until we get time to play around with it some more and fix the bugs and tweaks, so please bear with us.

Finally the pros (well pro actually, there's only one!) - we are now broadcasting in superb 128kbps quality. For non techies, this means you can listen to our station in superb quality.

Anyway, we're gonna be pretty busy over the coming weeks but as usual, get in touch with any comments or questions.

Nice to be back.
