Podcasts about yours forever in song

Even though I've been sick, I wanted to put a show out for y'all, in honor of my successful move across the country, my utilities, internet and cable all being active & in working order (at last! XD), and in celebration of the great new place in which I find myself (with its marvelous bellydance community! :D).  With the move and everything going on -before- it, it's just been FAR too long since we've had a new show, so.. now that I finally can, I thought I'd whip up a joyous, up-tempo new ep of Eclectica. ^_^   (With plans of doing lots more on a far more regular basis in the coming months. ^_^)Featuring music from SoundClick.com, Ioda PormoNet and SoundCloud.com, whether you dance in the office, on the way to work, in a classroom, on stage or just in your livingroom, this show is sure to inspire a shimmy or two- even if you're not a regular dancer. ^_^  Full of happiness, excitement for today, gratitude for yesterday and hope for the future yet to come, this show is FULL of lively, energetic music.  Plus, with various dance styles in mind, it's also packed with diverse cultural  influences and musical styles, so I hope you'll join in the fun I had in making this. ^_^ If you cannot see the audio controls, your browser does not support the audio element Click here to play in a new tab, or right click "Save As" to download the full show- for free!Band Names = Links to each band's official web site, where available).Song Names = Links to where you can BUY each musician's work- LEGALLY.  :DBackground music:  MIDIval Punditz; - PiyaSetrak Sarkissian - Tigi Nigsim Il AmarSaïd Senhaji & Orchestra Zahra - ChitanaDJ Tomasc  - Chot n' Cold MixNiyaz - DilrubaSkarazula - Non Sofre Santa MariaLamajamal - Ish AdaniAlin Rogoz - Sweet and LovelyDJ Click - TziganieRabii - N'reservé ou NalheghaJoud - Ya AliSlonovski Bal - Hočemo Li U Šabac?Maroon Shaker - Spicy Dukkah            ♥Lastly, this episode. is also dedicated to our furry friends, who.. perhaps.. may appear in background noises of important recordings.. *cough* - enrich our lives with their endless love, and bring us countless joys, every single day.  To my 2 black kitties, I love you.  Thank you so much for taking this journey with me. ^_^  And to my dear little friend Migo, whom I just met over the Thanksgiving holiday, this is for you & your family, little man.  Thank you for being with us while on your journey, too..♥ ♥ ♥Now, kick off your shoes, take a deep breath, snag a gulp of water before you start.. and let's get ready to DANCE, 'cause there is soooo much in life worth celebrating!  ^_^Yours Forever In Song,--DJ Selchie♥☼♥

This episode is dedicated to the great Mr. Owain Phyfe, who has inspired me in so many ways since discovering his work now many, many moons ago.  The picture below is exactly how I remember him; the day I first plowed dreamy-eyed but determinedly through the VA Renaissance fair, to find out where that -enchanting- music was coming from.  And ever since, I have been positively captivated by his incredible voice, his passionate, unique creations, and his lyrical style.  To my knowledge, Mr. Phyfe was a self-taught musician, ancient & medieval linguist and surely, a scholar, and for that, he blows me away even more.Sadly, he passed this year due to pancreatic cancer, but his memory, through his artistry and pure, captivating music, will live on.  Thank you for your song, Mr. Phyfe.  You were the first and only real bard I think I've ever met, and you inspire me to this day.  ♥♥♥On a brighter note, I'd also like to give a shout-out to Madlenka, Bagoas, Mavi, Nina Amaya, and my other friends who're currently attending the Darbukastani Independence Days celebration this weekend. :D  I wish I could be with you all, but my hips are shimmying in time with your music and my spirit is with y'all, wherever we each may be. :) ♥♥♥..Now, on to the music!
