Spring is in the air and that can only mean one thing: Spring Cleaning! OK, there might be more pleasant Spring diversions, but if you’ve got a 90 minute set of chilled tracks featuring lovely lady vocalists, well then, it’s really kinda fun. Of course, you can always just listen while you kick back with friends and family, or even while you work at your desk. 🙂 [Drats! Just realized I played this Essenza track on #59. Oh well! It’s a goodie.]
Here’s that 3rd episode I mentioned last week… I am launching a brand new project on March 5th, so that may have some affect on whether Lovely Ladies happens weekly or fortnightly, but I’m having a lot of fun, so I’m sure I’ll keep doing them pretty regularly. Haven’t selected an exact drop day (ie Tuesdays, Thursdays et al) so just keep checking back for more!

Rather than simply type up my Top 20 podsafe picks for 2006, I figured I’d put together a special episode of The Chillcast so you can hear them yourself! It was actually pretty difficult to keep the list to just 20, I have to admit. The quality of podsafe music just keeps increasing as the weeks and months go by, and I’m sure there’s still more great tracks from 2006 left for me to discover in coming episodes. I’m definitely looking forward to the new crop of podsafe tracks of 2007!

“Little White Roses” Paul & PriceSounds Like Sex 2 (2006 RedCola)

I really love this week’s lineup! Lovely and amazing songs that I’ve been secretly hoarding in my iTunes collection that must be shared. Prepare to fall in love, my friends…
A very nice review of The Chillcast just went up on the Calmscape site today, in the article entitled “Portable Chill” contributed by Plattitude:
The Chillcast is an all-podsafe show with a decidedly hip and sunny attitude. Host Anji Bee (who is one half of the chillout band Lovespirals) eases the listener into the music with her sexy, cool voice, and injects each episode with charisma and ambition. With a focus on emerging artists, The Chillcast spins downtempo electronica, nu-jazz, and chilled R&B, soul and worldbeat. Recent shows have featured artists such as Astrid Suryanto, Sunburn in Cypress, Bitter::Sweet, Chill Factor 5, Quinn and Seiji Toda.
Sorry this went up a little late…. Anyway, this episode has got an interesting mix of tracks including several from bands that are new to the PodSafe Music Network, one that’s a brand new band altogether, and all of which are new to The Chillcast.
