Science for Girls contributor, singer/songerwriter and soundtrack composer, Paul Brill, joins us this week with a fun new video for “Weekday Bender” from his 2005 album, New Pagan Love Song. This video mixes lovely archival 8mm film along with new footage and was directed by Mark Wildman Read. You can download “Weekday Bender” FREE from paulbrill.com. If you’re in the New York area, be sure to check out Paul’s upcoming “birthday blowout” show at Joe’s Pub on June 19th!
I could have called this the “Science for Girls Collaborators Special” because not only do I announce the winners of the SFG CD contest, but I also present songs from a number of the indie New York artists who collaborated with Darren on his fabulous debut album. If you haven’t heard it yet, be sure to check out The Chillcast Science For Girls Feature. Thanks to all the artists for sharing their music with us!
I’m very pleased to bring you a special feature on the wonderful new album by Science for Girls, the recording project of Darren Solomon featuring a host of talented male and female vocalists from the New York indie music scene. Darren and I sat down for a nice half hour chat about his exceptional debut independent CD.
Enter to win one of 3 copies of the brand new self-titled Science for Girls CD. The winners will be selected at random - please enter before April 21st. Good luck!
This episode boasts a fantastic lineup of songs - many brand new, several special permissions, and all with audio comments from the artists! Be prepared for a sensual batch of vocals - including an extra special Chillcast theme vocal from the lovely Miss Kirsty Hawkshaw!!! Huge thanks to all the artists for really making this one to remember. Oh, and I totally spaced on mentioning that next weekend is my birthday, so I’m taking the weekend off from The Chillcast!

"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
