Download this now if you love would love to hear an amazing piano player+DJ from heaven. The artist calls himself Chilly Gonzales and this mix-tape called "Pianist Envy" is a feast for the ears. His sounds will warm up to anyone who loves qualities of all of the following artists: Gangstarr, Moby, Hans Zimmer, Biggie, Aaliyah, and more but you get the idea. Chilly is a little bit of everything smooth. I cannot get enough of a piano, inspiring lyrics, and a good beat. Download it here. Check out the video below of Chilly and DJ A-trak collaborating together with only 15 minutes of rehearsal time. If you just want the music fast forward to 2:00. You can do amazing things when you work together. In terms of creativity, a few is much much much better than one. Trust me it is worth it. SO amazing!!

A quote from the New York Times Magazine:
"This past May in Paris, Gonzales set the official record for the longest solo piano performance at 27 hours, 3 minutes and 44 seconds. He played over 200 songs, including works by Beethoven, Gershwin and Britney Spears. The musician’s most recent record, “Soft Power,” is an homage to 1970s soft rock. He also just put out an online mix tape called “Pianist Envy” with covers of contemporary artists like BeyoncĂ©, 50 Cent and Kelly Clarkson."

P.S. If you will be in NY tomorrow night Chilly is playing at Joe's Pub at 9:30 with Princess Superstar who is pretty sick too. If I didn't have to work in Philadelphia Friday I would totally gooooo. Blahhhh mad I am!
