Lovespirals Own Podsafe Downtempo Chart

Pleased to note that Lovespirals are still doing quite well on the Podsafe Music Network Downtempo chart. At present, the band own the top 3 spots, plus the number 8 spot. Long time fan favorite, “Love Survives,” from the 2005 album, Free & Easy, is the top podcaster pick, followed by the ever-popular Bitstream Dream remix of “Walk Away” (we really do need to release that Walk Away EP one day…),  plus both original mixes of Long Way From Home singles, “Motherless Child” and “This Truth” from 2007.  Quite surprised its the not the remixes of those singles,  honestly! Band vocalist, Anji Bee, currently holds the #7 position in Downtempo and  #2 on the Trip Hop chart, both for collaborations with the now-defunct Canadian-based project, Bitstream Dream.

On a side note, gotta give some love to Macedonia of Radio BSOTS for his kind comment:

Somewhere in the podosphere, someone is keeping an all-time Podsafe Music chart topper list. I would like to think that Lovespirals is somewhere within the Top 30, if not the Top Ten. Personal faves include “Love Survives” and “Walk Away (Bitstream Dream Remix)”.

Lovespirals Featured on Bite Sized Bonus

You know when you get a tune stuck in your head? It seems to stay there all day, no matter what else you listen to, the same tune resurfaces and drives you to the point of insanity. Well I am well past the point of having any sanity left so I need not fear, but yesterday I had not one but two songs buzzing around my vacuous cranium. So much so that to try and exercise them out of my head I open today’s show with them. May they invade your every waking hum for the rest of the day.

A very special album of the week, as not only do I get to play the tracks but I have a lovely conversation with half of Lovespirals, Anji Bee. Listen in as we talk about their new album, the duos past, and performing in Second Life. And just what is it that I say that makes Anji giggle? You will have to listen to find out.

CC Chapman loves Anji

On the latest Accident Hash podcast, CC Chapman professed his love for me. Well, my voice, anyway. He said if I read a Chinese menu, he’d be ecstatic. Of course, he heard my infamous Adam Curry “love messaging” (as Adam recently referred to my audio feedback on Daily Source Code). Speaking of which, Dave of Dave’s Lounge teased me in his latest podcast, announcing me as “regular Daily Source Code flirt, Anji Bee.” Gee whiz! That Adam is just trying to get me in trouble, I swear.
