Editor’s Pick on CNET’s Download.com
Lovespirals are now CNET’s new music.download.com. In fact, we were the editor’s pick on 5/6/2004, with the following editorial commentary:
The smooth grooves conjure comparisons to Portishead and Everything But the Girl. Combining jazzy torch-song vocal stylings with modern trip-hop sounds and rhythms, Lovespirals craft an infectious and exotic down-tempo sound that you might hear playing in an upscale New York club or Parisian underground lounge.
Lovespirals VS Rick Springfield
Anji was recently quizzed about favorite music by the Voices and Visions
website. You can read her responses, just below Rick Springfield’s, here.
