The weather is hot, but the music in today’s show is hotter! Just realized that Adam Curry did an “All Female Friday” show for his Daily Source Code today, but I already had my lineup selected yesterday, so it’s totally by coincidence. Lots of great tracks went up on the Podsafe Music Network this week, so who can resist? Speaking of Adam, I just realized that I never mentioned we met on my San Fran trip, albiet briefly. And you know, I thought he really did look sexier with the beard.
Tracklisting:
Laura Harley “Shine” Laura Harley (2006) - PMN | MySpace
Kharisma Montes “La Mujer” unreleased (2006) - PMN | MySpace
Egyptian Nursery “God’s Window” New Anthem (1998) - PMN
Great summertime feel this show with a nice new group of artists! Lots of listener feedback coming in recently, please keep it coming. Let me know if you like the way the show sounds, recording-wise, and how you feel about the little production bits I threw in for fun. As always, the podcast is a work in progress and I invite you to get involved in the process. Feel free to send me audio comments — or music — for consideration at anjibee@gmail.com.
Ryan and Anji talk about their new podcasting setup on Anji’s cool new Intel iMac, the Pandora music site, the band Mira, the Essence Podcast, the evils of AllofMp3, iTunes Store reviews, Frappr Maps, and Second Life.
Lovespirals in SecondLife: Ryan Lumley and Anji Riel
I’ve had this idea for awhile that I might do occassional mid-week podcasts when I want to chat about something, and it so happens that I am going out of town for the weekend and won’t be able to do my normal podcast. So, I thought I’d launch the Chillcast Chat this week to try and fill that void… I hope you enjoy this abbreviated Chillcast and that you will consider taking part in the Earthlink Advertising Challenge. I’d love to hear some jingles by the bands I feature on the show!
Figures that this show I hardly have any iTunes links to give ya… Oh well! I was playing Katarmari Damacy again this week which put me in the mood for Japanese Jazz Pop, so I dug some up online. I’ve got some more for future shows, as well! I’m so glad that you listeners appreciate the diversity of my musical interests and don’t try to confine me to one little slice of music defined by genre. I don’t know what you’d call the music I select, but I always know it when I hear it… Hope your summer is going well and that the Chillcast is helping to set the right mood for ya!

"Anji Bee has the sexiest voice in podcasting!"
-- Adam Curry, Daily Source Code
"Anji's sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet voice... I remember the first time I ever heard her, way back in the day, I said she could read me a Chinese menu or the phone book and I would be all happy!"
-- C.C. Chapman, Accident Hash
"Anji's voice wouldn't be out of place in a smoky jazz or blues bar somewhere down in a dimly lit cellar. Sultry with a voice like syrupy silky satin with a marshmallow middle and a honey topping."
-- Podcast Junky UK, Most Recognizable Voices in Podcasting, Sept. 2007
"Cosiness abounds as the silken voiced Anji Bee - lead singer of chillout band Lovespirals - pours a cocktail of mellow dance music. Mmm..."
-- Radio Times, July 2007
"If you're looking for a different brand of 'grown and sexy' in the podcast world, check out Anji Bee. This young lady is bringing it - from production, to her voice, to the music selection - she is doing her thazizzle!"
-- Fave Nightmare, Cyberspace Soul Pick, Friday Favecast
"No other voice in the podosphere is more sultry than Anji Bee."
-- Macedonia, Radio BSOTS
"Enjoying The Chillcast. It's seriously awesome. I listen to them like over and over again."
-- Julien Smith, In Over Your Head
"I just love the tunes Anji Bee selects and her comments on them. I no longer have to search for music to be creative; I just susbcribe to The Chillcast."
-- Karen, Rumor Girls
"Like having a cocktail of lovely tunes and honey poured directly into your ear. Well-chosen music, voice links that make you feel cosy inside, it all adds up to an essential weekly download."
-- David McCandless, Good Podcast Guide, Nov 2006
"If you're in the mood for chillout music , this should be your first stop. Her voice alone is the perfect complement for a long drive or any escape from the hectic rush of everday life. You're gonna love it."
