Oh my… I collaborated on a song with evil genius, Mark Yoshimoto Nemcoff, for his zany new “audio book” project with fellow Pacific Coast Hellway producer, Mike Yusi. Folks have said that Pussy: The Musical is PodShow’s answer to Highschool: The Musical; does that make me Gabriella?
You can actually buy my track – as well as the rest of the songs used in Pussy: The Musical on eMusic!

Anji Bee Guests Blogger & Podcaster Magazine Meetup
I gave my first talk in Second Life tonight for the monthly Blogger & Podcaster Magazine meetup. The crowd was quite warm and receptive, asking questions after my general talk about the lifepath that led to me being a podcaster. I was pretty nervous, I have to admit, and I think what surprised them most was my admission that I am sick of hearing myself talk after so much time spent promoting the new Lovespirals album. š

Moosefrog Review on GratisVibes
Posted on GratisVibes September 8th, 2007 by ikram
To coincide with the interview with Lo-Kiwi, Iām reviewing one of their releases, āAdriftā by Finnish duo Moosefrog. Adrift is a follow-up to the āComeā EP, which was the first release of the Lo-Kiwi label.
After an initial listen, āAdriftā sounds unmistakeably like a throwback to the trip-hop era of the mid to late 90s, although its clear that Moosefrog have updated the template and the sound for the 21st century! If you liked Morcheeba, Thievery Corporation or other acts in that oeuvre, youād definitely enjoy this album!
This stylish album has a alluring, sensual, yet dark and brooding quality to it. Maybe not as dark as Portishead but not as cheery as Hooverphonic were in their later days. The highlights include Anji Beeās vocals on two of the tracks on this release. Anji (from the band Love Spirals Downwards) reminds me of Sadeās sultry voice. In fact ex-MTV VJ and well known podcasting personality Adam Curry calls it āthe sexiest voice in podcastingā. Yes thats right, Anji does podcasts as well!
Definitely a release for all those skeptics who still think that the netlabel scene isnāt producing quality.

Adam Curry and his ShowGirls at NME 2007
Adam Curry came out to personally congratulate us for our ShowGirls Podcast Award. It was so fun to tease him all weekend… Of course, now he’s getting me back via podcast, on recent episodes of both his Daily Source Code and Dawn and Drew Show. Doh! Don’t worry, I’ll send him some audio feedback. š
Anji Bee wins Podcast Award with Showgirls
Exciting news! ShowGirls, the conversational group podcast featuring me, the RumorGirls, Soccergirl, Cali Lewis, Share of Rock n Roll TV, and the PodChick, just won a People’s Choice Podcast Award! Interestingly, the podcast was inspired by the 7 female podcasters meeting at last year’s New Media Expo (previously called Portable Media Expo) where the awards ceremony take place. It will be a nice reunion for us this year as we get to accept our own award! Thanks to everyone who voted for us.
