After a year’s hiatus, the show has returned to celebrate the Lovely Ladies of Ryan Lum! Hee hee. This show has been a long time coming, just like the release of new CDs by two of Ryan’s former collaborators, Suzanne Perry and Jennifer Ryan Wilde. I thought I’d put together a set in honor of we female vocalists that have worked with Ryan for your listening pleasure. As for the future of the show, I’m thinking I can do it monthly, and am already looking forward to the next edition, as I have more great music with female vocalists waiting in the wings…

“Caught in the Groove” LovespiralsLong Way From Home (2007)
This episode features acoustic folk, rock, and pop with a haunted Americana feel. You’ll hear what I mean… Some really excellent offerings from some very fine voices lending a fantastic mood to the music.
Surprise! I’m back again with a sweet mix of electronica pop featuring some of the best podsafe female vocalists out there, including a double dose of Róisín Murphy. Looks like the PodShow upgrade was pretty painless, huh?

Recorded this last Thursday or Friday, a bit late getting it out… There are so many incredibly talented ladies this show that I am super pleased and delighted to share this with The Chillcast subscribers, as well. The wind is howling outside my windows, but this music makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. (Sorry Cat - saw you added phoentics to your PMN account now that so many of us podcasters mispronounced your name!)

“Her Favourite Song” The GenevievesCliches Are Such A Bore (2007)
Got some great feedback last time I shared Lovely Ladies with the Chillcast subscribers, so I couldn’t resist sharing this one, too, particularly since it includes several electronica or crossover electro-pop goodies! There are some fantastic voices this episode and a nice range of moods and tempos. Love it.
Decided to share this episode with the Chillcast listeners, as well, so a few of you may get this twice. Sorry about that! You know, for months I debated whether it was better to do Chillcast twice a week or start a new show, and I’m still not entirely sure. Lovely Ladies is more on the rock and folk tip, but its generally still pretty “chill”. Anyway, let me know what you think! This episode includes a great guest podcaster spot from Mike O’Hara.

"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
