Download Ryan's Atmosphere 99 DJ Set FREE

Ryan Lum of Lovespirals (and formerly, Love Spirals Downwards) put together this mix set during his atmospheric drum & bass DJ heydey between promotions for his 1998 album, Flux, and his 1999 retrospective comp, Temporal, in 2000. Funnily enough, it does not include ANY of his own music. 😉 The Atmosphere ’99 set was first released via Live365 in April 2000 and featured in the Jungle section of the short lived RadioSpy site run by GameSpy in March 2000. After more than a decade, it is now available as a free download on Lovespirals’ SoundCloud page, limited to 200 downloads. Go download your copy of the nearly hour-long Atmosphere 99 Mix by Ryan Lum now! Stream the DJ set from the widget below, and be sure to share it with your friends.

If you’d like to hear Ryan spin some tunes live, you’re in luck, as he will be DJing at the intimate chillout event, Savasana Relaxative, on March 31st. Also DJing is local legend, sid&molly, and our own, Anji Bee of The Chillcast. Additionally there will be an aphrodisiac elixir bar, traditional Gong Fu Cha tea ceremony, and raw chocolate confections being served. No alcohol, just good vibes. Come chillout with Lovespirals!

Feel the Love with a New Lovespirals EP

The first single from Lovespirals’ fourth album, Future Past, to get the full remix treatment is “Love” – an atmospheric drum ‘n’ bass tune that recalls some of the duo’s earliest work together. A half dozen producers from  different musical schools of thought set Anji Bee‘s poppy yet ethereal vocals to completely new musical scores. From angular drum ‘n’ bass, to lush downtempo, to atmospheric ambient music, this moody collection covers a lot of sonic ground. And Anji’s Chillcast listeners should be familiar with most — if not all — of the contributing producers which includes: Chill Factor-5, 7 Day Visa, Divasonic, Soul Whirling Somewhere, Xurba and Falling You (who, btw, created the only mix which contains Ryan Lum‘s original guitar solo.)

Remixes by Chill Factor-5 and & Day Visa are available as a FREE DOWNLOAD from LastFM (mark you favorite remixes with “Love This Track”) and SoundCloud. Both sites have built-in social media tools that allow you to easily repost links to emails, Twitter, Facebook, and other services with the “Share” pull down menus, so be sure to tell a friend!

Purchase the full EP or individual tracks from iTunes, Amazon Mp3, CDbaby, eMusic, Rhapsody, or Bandcamp

Podcasters, DJs, Internet DJs, and music bloggers are all encouraged to share these tunes with their audiences, as well. If you’re feeling the love, please write a review of the Love EP as Lovespirals would really appreciate you giving them a little love in return.

Lovespirals cover Pink Floyd – again!

Lovespirals have just released a cover of Pink Floyd’s song, “Welcome of the Machine,” from their classic 1975 album, Wish You Were Here. The song was recorded as a contribution to the 2nd NPF tribute collection, Vol. 2: Return of the Sons of Neptune. This 3-disc set is available for free download in SHN format via the torrent area of this Pink Floyd fan group’s site: neptunepinkfloyd.co.uk. You will need to create a (free) account for access to the torrent, but it is well worth it if you are a fan of the Floyd. Otherwise, you can simply download a 192k mp3 of Lovespirals’ track at myspace.com.lovespirals, for a limited time. Enjoy!

UPDATE! Many years later, the band have made this track available on their Soundcloud page for free download in glorious 256k mp3 format. The NPF site took down their torrent ages ago due to pressure from Pink Floyd’s legal team (BOO!)

Welcome to the Machine (Pink Floyd Cover) by lovespirals

NPF site slammed

Man, the Neptune Pink Floyd site is still screwy from yesterday. Right after Floyd’s Live 8 performance I was trying to get on the forum to see if anyone was going to post up videos but it was really fricken slow. Tons of people were logged in making posts left and right, so some posts were duplicating and triplicating. I saw one post that the NPF site had been listed on the BBC’s site’s suggested links for Floyd fans. So I’m sure some of those folks started coming over to check it out, too. Then they would see the collection of downloadable and streaming audio and video, (including the massive tribute project, hopefully) and some would doubtlessly start hitting those things, and so I’m guessing the site has been hit just a wee bit harder than they were prepared for. Today, I just keep getting SQL connection errors, so I can’t call up anything from the database at all. It’s basically just the shell of the site coming up, without any of the guts. 🙁

Lovespirals on Pink Floyd Tribute

Lovespirals have contributed a lovely cover of Pink Floyd’s 1969 song, “Cymbaline,” to None of Us is Pink, a massive 3-CD tribute assembled by fansite/forum, Neptune Pink Floyd. Billed “The world’s greatest and largest international collaboration to make a Pink Floyd Tribute CD, by fans for fans” this downloadable collection of 49 tracks was lovingly assembled, mastered, and packaged by hard core fans of this seminal band for absoultely no profit whatsoever. None of Us is Pink is available via BitTorrent in SHN format, along with complete artwork including a 27 page booklet, at the NPF site. You can also enjoy Lovespirals’ version of “Cymbaline” in 192k mp3 on Lovespirals’ MySpace page for a limited time.
