One of my favorite Chillcast bands join us today with their brand new video: Paul & Price! YAY!!! To top it off, it’s a “remix” of one of my all-time fave songs, “Little White Roses,” featuring the vocalist, Toddy Ivy. The original version is from their awesome 2006 CD, Sounds Like Sex 2, but this version - called “Little White Roses (On A Hazy Summers Day)” - comes from last year’s Paul & Price VS Toddy Ivy EP. This cute and creative video was directed by Canadian artist, Daniel Cambil. Tune in to this weekend’s Chillcast audio show for more Paul & Price music and a special CD contest!
I could have called this the “Science for Girls Collaborators Special” because not only do I announce the winners of the SFG CD contest, but I also present songs from a number of the indie New York artists who collaborated with Darren on his fabulous debut album. If you haven’t heard it yet, be sure to check out The Chillcast Science For Girls Feature. Thanks to all the artists for sharing their music with us!
At long last the band have settled on the winner and runner-up of the PLP Remix Contest for This Truth! We know that 60 some producers have been anxiously awaiting our decision since April 1st, and we’re sorry to have kept them on pins and needles, but we needed time to sort through and really listen to all of the entries. There were quite a few really good mixes — more than we even dreamed we’d get! We decided the best, most fun way to announce our faves would be with a podcast, sharing the music and our thoughts on the tracks. We hope that both the contest entrants and our podcast listeners will enjoy it. The remixes are presented in no particular order, except for the winner and runner-up; the runner-up is presented first and the winner is presented last. The grand prize is an 8 gig iPod Touch, a year’s subscription to the PLP Producers’ Vault, and all 3 Lovespirals CDs autographed by the band, plus inclusion on an upcoming remix EP and promotion via the Podsafe Music Network and other online music services.Thanks so much to all of the producers for their hard work and especially to DJ Puzzle of Peace Love Productions and SynthVox for throwing the contest for us!

"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."
-- DJ Come of Age, Nov 2007
