What's that Blake Lawrence up to? This....

CHILLTRAX, that's what! All The Excess! had to take a back seat while Blake built "The World's Chillout Channel."

Radio Danz CEO Bernardo Passariello offered Blake the opportunity to program a 24/7 chillout stream, and Chilltrax officially debuted on February 15, with a fully functional and interactive web site soon to follow at www.chilltrax.com.

As the companion stream to Radio Danz, Chilltrax offers music from artists who have roots in dance music but slow down the tempo for a more laid back mood. Labels for Chilltrax music include downtempo, trip-hop, smooth electronica, lounge, and chillout.

Blake is Chilltrax Program Director, ably assisted by Music Director Bill "DJ Beatdaddy" Hutchcroft. The voice of Chilltrax is former WQCD/New York midday empress Deborah (Rath) Howell.

Blake promises that Chilltrax will be 100% Ryan Seacrest-free.

UPDATE, 3/17/2010: Chilltrax is in no way associated with Broadcast Architecture's Chillout Radio Network. (We felt we had to say that, just in case.)
