Anji Bee is a vocalist/lyricist, podcaster, former college radio DJ, and music journalist from Los Angeles. Bee is best known as the vocalist and front person of the band, Lovespirals, and the hostess and producer of music show, The Chillcast with Anji Bee. == Broadcasting history == Anji Bee began her broadcasting career in 1996 as a college radio DJ at KUCI 88.9 FM, on the UCI Irvine campus. Her first show, (Gloomy Sunday ), aired from October 1996 to May 1997. This was immediately followed by another show, (The All-Purpose Nuclear Bedtime Story ). Bee and her co-host, Justin Johnsen, interviewed a number of underground culture figures on this show, including performance artist/musician/filmmaker, Miranda July, experimental solo artist and former Swans member, Jarboe, and ambient music composer, Robert Rich. Bee worked as KUCI's Music Director and Experimental Music Director, as well as Art Director and Editor of the station's program guide. Additionally she was a music writer for the guide.〔 In January 2000, Bee began an Internet radio program called ''The Lovely Ladies of Electronica'' on Live365. She later amended the name to (Chillcast Radio ) with a slight change in music format. Switching from radio to podcasting, in June 2005 Bee initiated the (Chillin' with Lovespirals ) band podcast. Bee began contributing music and audio comments to the Daily Source Code—the podcast of former MTV VJ, Adam Curry, who had just created the Podsafe Music Network (now known as (Music Alley )). This association led to a podcasting contract for Bee when Curry founded the PodShow Network (now known as Mevio) with Ron Bloom that same year. Bee has guest hosted two episodes of the Daily Source Code, ("Best of Charley #5" ) and ("DSC #524: Adam Loves the Ladies" ). Curry has said that Bee "has the sexiest voice in podcasting."〔(http://thechillcast.podshow.com/ )''Thechillcast.podshow.com'' Retrieved on 05-11-07〕 In February 2006, Bee launched a new music podcast, (The Chillcast with Anji Bee ), featuring podsafe chill out music.
