Zack Daggy is on a much needed vacation from podcasting this month and asked me to step in as a guest host for his weekly music show, The Mothpod. I thought I’d return the love he’s shown me and my band Lovespirals on his various podcasts with a 45 min set of my favorite Chillcast love songs. And by “love songs,” I don’t mean sappy ballads, no! This is pure, dead sexayyyy….
The first artist ever to grace the vidcast returns for their 3rd time with their 3rd video from their 3rd studio album - how do you like that? 3-3-3 must mean something in numerology! As promised, here is the WORLD PREMIER of the brand new video by the one and only Karmacoda from the capital of creativity, San Francisco. “Make Like Mine” hails from the band’s 2007 album, Illuminate, and is one of my personal faves. This breathtaking video was created by Luiz Otavio Feldens, who also did their previous video for “Skylines.” I am so proud to bring this video to you, I am bursting!
Please grab the download for higher quality video than the Flash player.
What? Another killer contest so soon? Yes it’s true! Not sure how best to describe this week’s mix, but it contains special permissions tracks, brand new releases, female AND male vocals, new bands to the show, and a completely free album. What’s not to love?

Plastic Operator return to the Chillcast Video Edition with one of the catchiest songs EVER, “Folder” (no, not as in “scruncher or folder“), from their 2007 album, Different Places and the Folder EP. This fun video was directed by AICP award winner, Pete, of Bitstate. Be sure to check out this weekend’s Chillcast audio show to hear their latest single, “Peppermint,” from the Peppermint EP.

"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
