The video edition of our latest band podcast is up on YouTube for your viewing or listening pleasure. We thought we’d try out scheduling a live premier of this episode to see if folks might enjoy it. We had a nice little group of folks in the chatroom for our Sunday evening stream. Perhaps we should sort out the best day/time before our next episode drops? Feel free to leave us a comment here on the blog or in the comments section of the video to let us know your vote.
Check out a mesmerizing visualizer video featuring the original photograph by Susan Jennings used for the cover art of “The Call” and the VIP Mix just posted to YouTube. If you click on the CC option you can also read the lyrics as you watch/listen. This 2025 mix — featuring a newly recorded guitar solo and completely upgraded mixing and mastering — is available for download from Bandcamp or streaming on Spotify, Apple, Amazon, YouTube, and other digital platforms.

Ryan & Anji Lum revisit their 2022 single, “The Call,” with an even moodier and more atmospheric 2025 reboot. The new VIP Mix amplifies the song’s shoegaze and dream pop essence with a bigger, bolder guitar sound and more immersive ethereal vocal harmonies. The hook-laden guitar lead and spacey synths evoke The Cure, while the track’s melancholic yet driving energy harks back to Ryan’s early 90s work, as well as the duo’s 2018 album, ‘Life Goes On.’ Anji’s emotive vocals shift effortlessly between bold confidence and dreamy sincerity, adding depth to the song’s hypnotic pull. A nostalgic yet refreshed take, this version of “The Call” is a hauntingly beautiful throwback with a modern twist.
Out now on Bandcamp, Spotify, Apple, Amazon, YouTube, and other digital platforms.
Special thanks to Susan Jennings for her classic cover image.

After many delays, our new song, “Used To Be,” is finally available on Apple Music. We have been experiencing a number of issues working with our new digital music distributor related to the band name, which has been exacerbated by recent policy changes at Apple. It’s looking more and more like we will be officially returning to the original band name to avoid further problems. In any case, we hope you enjoy the new song and look forward to more music from us in the new year!
