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.
Playlist:
“Angel Love (Radio Edit)” Samantha JamesAngel Love EP (2008)
A densely packed half hour of musical relaxation that includes some upbeat tracks and some moody mellow numbers. I share my latest remix from a free Creative Commons album and annonuce winners of both the Dave Bianchi and 2Tall contests. Fun times!
Feel the love — double the love — with this twice-as-long episode of The Chillcast featuring love songs. I threw a few classics in with a great new batch of tunes from Promonet. Lots of sensual female vocals will help set the mood for romance in this extra sexy episode!
This week’s lineup is very chill and relaxing; chillaxin’! The smooth, sensual sounds will set the stage for seduction, no lie… Lots of new artists to The Chillcast, including several special permissions tracks. Yay!
As promised, here is a special edition of The Chillcast to tide you over. This time around it’s a spotlight on my various musical collaborations outside of Lovespirals over the past decade. I went through my archives and dug up one song per year from the various bands I have lent my vocals and lyrics to, which is actually quite a bit more than is shared here. I hope you dig this glimpse into my personal history.
The Chillcast presents the best new podsafe music, hosted by "the sexiest voice in podcasting," Anji Bee of Lovespirals. Chill out to a smooth mix of electronica, jazz, soul, and world music each week - plus special interview features, video editions, extended DJ mixes, and CD contests. Every week Anji picks a Featured Artist free mp3 download too!
"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
