This week I present a 90 minute New Media Expo Road Trip DJ Mix chocked filled with danceable goodness! This mix starts off slow and groovy and gains momentum, making it perfect for driving, partying with friends, or even just chillin’ at your desk. But watch out, you WILL find yourself dancing before too long! Enjoy all these free mp3s care of Promonet and special thanks to Lindsay at OM Records for permission to play King Kooba!
Happy 4th, my fellow Americans! Last year I did an IndepenDANCE DJ Mix, so this year I thought I’d do an INDIEpendance Day Mix. Tee hee. Rather than upbeat house etc I went with pure chillout, since that’s what you guys seem to dig and I have plennnnnnnty of it to share! Well, OK, there may be a few house and trance tracks, but still, it’s pretty mellow - great for a dinner party or chillin’ by the pool. Music provided by Podsafe Music Network and Promonet. Special thanks go to HAM guy for the great CC photo of fireworks! Wanna keep the party going? Check out more extended Chillcast DJ Mixes.

I’m heading out for a little island getaway this week so I thought I’d get in the mood with this 45 min mix of exotic international chillout tracks. Whether you’re in sunny California or cold grey Australia, this set is sure to perk up your spirits! All but one of these songs are available on eMusic, so I’ve linked to each album page for your convenience. I hope you’ll go check out the free trial over at emusic.com/chillcast before my deal runs out!
While some people enjoy crowded, loud pubs on St. Patrick’s Day, others prefer to chill out. That would be me! Kick back to this 90 minute mix set of deep house and downtempo tunes selected especially for your listening pleasure.

I was inspired to join the Cupid’s Hunt Valentine’s Day podcast project after reading hearing about it from the Friday Favecast. I thought, “What fun to get involved with some of my favorite podcasters!” Plus I really wanted to return some of the love that so many of The Chillcast listeners have showered on me the past 2 weeks. So just for you baby — a 60 minute mix of songs in the key of love. Enjoy!
Hope your holiday season was wonderful. To end off your year right, I’ve got a 90 minute DJ mix of upbeat and podsafe house, electro, and lounge tracks. Listen with your friends! And check back for a special chillout DJ mix to start off your New Year super mellow style.

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