This week’s musical guest is Mr. Meeble, from Phoenix, AZ. Band founder, Devin Fleenor, stars in this creative video for the song “I Fell Though,” from their debut indie album, Never Trust the Chinese. This video is available as a free download from Mr. Meeble’s MySpace page, where you can also watch a behind-the-scenes “making of” video. Be sure to check out the Chillcast with Anji Bee #131 to hear another great track from the album, and to learn how you can enter to win 1 of 4 autographed copies of their album.
This week’s show is dedicated to the majesty of the female voice. I’ve got a killer lineup including 3 songs sent to me on CD, which is always awesome! I prefer 320 aacs, so getting to rip music directly from the album makes me stoked. I’m also stoked to have a new sponsor, Folgers! Woo hoo — coffee and music are two of the best things in life. And flavored coffee and female vocal music makes life that much sweeter…

Changing it up a bit this Chillcast… Melancholy indie pop goes so well with rainy winter weather. Lemme know what you guys think by hitting me back with a comment. Oh yeah, greetings to my newest hardcore fan, Lee, in London! Hardcore fans rule!!!
I can’t even tell you how stoked I am about this show! Killer tracks hot off the press — 3 aren’t even officially released yet and the other was a special permission track from one of my all time favorite musicians! Way too cool…
Tracklisting:
Robert Cray “Twenty (Live)” from Live from Across the Pond (2006)

"Anji Bee has the sexiest voice in podcasting!"
-- Adam Curry of 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 of 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."
-- 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 of Friday Favecast
"No other voice in the podosphere is more sultry than Anji Bee."
-- Macedonia, Radio BSOTS
"Anji Bee, a musician and former radio DJ, gives "stage" to artists who might not otherwise be discovered. Bee's podcast exposes me to independent artists I've never heard of, and subscribing to it eliminates the need to forage for new music."
- La Shawn Barber's Corner
"Enjoying The Chillcast. It's seriously awesome. I listen to them like over and over again."
-- Julien Smith of 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 of 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."
-- 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."
