Chillin' with Lovespirals: Live in Second Life

1 Comment

In this special episode, we present our Second Life acoustic performance from Oct. 27th. This was recorded directly from the mixer so there’s no ambient sounds like the water — or the laughing fish that resides near the stage we played. If you have no idea what I’m taking about, check out the video capture of “Walk Away” on YouTube. This is the first live set in support of Long Way From Home, and the first Lovespirals Second Life performance. By the way, the folks from PodShow Island said we had 760 listeners on their audio streams in addition to the full house watching in-game, pretty crazy! We hope you enjoy this stripped down set.

UPDATE: In addition to the live listeners, this episode has now had over 15,000 downloads/streams!

Setlist :

  1. “Our Nights” from Windblown Kiss (2002)
  2. “Walk Away” from Free & Easy (2005)
  3. “Treading the Water” from Long Way From Home (2007)
  4. “Empty Universe” from Long Way From Home (2007)
  5. “Abide” from Free & Easy (2005)
  6. “Lazy Love Days” from Long Way From Home (2007)
  7. “Caught in the Groove” from Long Way From Home (2007)
  8. “Once in a Blue Moon” from Long Way From Home (2007)
  9. “This Truth” from Long Way From Home (2007)
  10. “Motherless Child” from Long Way From Home (2007)

Ryan Lum on MySpace

Leave a comment

I don’t always do things in the right order. I have pages on facebook, ziki, and linkeIn to name a few. But just today, I created my personal myspace page. I’m not sure exactly what i’m going to do with it as I have myspace pages for Lovespirals and Love Spirals Downwards. But it’s a start and at least I’m the first and only Ryan Lum who has my myspace address www.myspace.com/ryanlum. Anyways, feel free to drop by and add me as a friend. I currently have zero after I deleted the default Tom dude.

Ryan DJ Set and dubplate

1 Comment

Saturday, August 12th: DJ Ryan Lum spins a late-night/early-morning set in the chillout room of the Family 6th Year Anniversary Party in Los Angeles. For more info, please call (213) 891-4756 or (818) 503-7535.

We just added another unreleased new track, called “Hand in Hand,” to our mp3.com page. This is the flip side of the “Ecstatic” duplate that I’ve been including in my recent DJ sets. Once again, it features the sax of Doron and vocals of Anji, and is even more jazzy than “Ecstatic.” If you enjoyed “Misunderstood,” from Temporal, you’re bound to dig this track, too!
