Just a quick lil update this week as I’ve been insanely busy preparing to release my new album. Worried about “cursing” anything, I don’t give many specific details but I do share some recent personal news like my sexy new room, watching the lunar eclipse, reading On the Road: The Original Scroll, and hooking up with Clarence - again!
Apologies for missing last week, another update on the upcoming Lovespirals album including a potential label deal, recent reading, DRM, and a big chunk of my upcoming interview with Zack Daggy for The Shameless Plugcast talking about my discomfort with videocameras. Gosh you can’t even tell I’m sick in this vidcast…

"Anji Bee has the sexiest voice in podcasting!"
-- Adam Curry of Daily Source Code

-- 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."

-- Good Podcast Guide, Nov 2006
