Vital's Podcast

On Saturday May 12th of 2012, the Dallas dance music underground came together to support a great cause. FREQUENCY was a successful charity event where 100% of the proceeds went to Hearing Regeneration & Tinnitus research. Vital & Hubb were proud to be a part of and help support this cause. This mix is a reflection of our set from the event.

It has always fascinated me that the older we get, the faster time seems to fly. Less attention is devoted to the things that truly matter and we get wrapped up in everything that life contains and so very easily forget what we need for ourselves in order to be happy. This series was started based on the desire to give comfort when we need it most, during times of change. Over these past few years since Vol. 2, I have begun to realize that not only is change present in every single moment, but the need for comfort and reassurance that we've made the right decisions to lead us where we are or where we're headed has never been greater.

As an ongoing gift from me to you, please enjoy this mix of some of my favorite moments of comfort. I truly hope it brings you peace when you need it and revelations of the beauty all around you.

A little over a year ago, I compiled and recorded a podcast which focused on the introspective chillout and downtempo tunes that accentuate my mood during the coldest time of year. I found that the selection process alone was just as enjoyable and therapeutic to create as it was to mix. Reacquainting myself with tracks and artists that at times I had gone months without hearing became very comforting, almost like seeing old friends that you forgot you need so much. I felt it was time to revisit this project once again and to share the sounds of beautiful melancholy that only winter can bring to our minds. I sincerely hope you enjoy.

In the quiet moments of the darkest season, I accentuate the thoughts in my mind with the music that reflects my mood. One avenue that I constantly explore during this time of year is chillout/downtempo. The holidays bring with them happiness and family, but at times can also be a bit melancholy. I truly believe this is necessary to make us appreciate what it is we have and the people we are blessed to surround ourselves with.

At times when we can't be with friends and family, there is still beauty in the fact that they are constantly on our minds and in our hearts. This mix is an ode to those times when we're surrounded by joy as well as the moments when we need to create it for ourselves. I hope it brings you closer to what you wish for most this winter.

We are never truly alone.
