Ryan and Anji Lum’s brand new single for August is available now on all streaming platforms, digital music stores, and via YouTube Music.

From Bandcamp:

Emerging from the heavy, interior themes of “Haunted,” “Broken,” and “Dissociate,” “Desirable” shifts its gaze outward. Sultry, jazz-tinged trip-hop downbeat carries a weary detachment—a last call barfly watching the room with a tired eye, attuned to the quiet gravity of desire as it pulls everyone closer.

“Desirable” unfolds as an enigmatic study in magnetism and distance, where vintage warmth meets modern depth. The arrangement moves with a slow, deliberate confidence, letting space and texture do the work of tension and release.

Anji’s breathy, seductive vocals, recorded in a single take, offer a storyteller’s intimacy—cool, measured, and just out of reach—underscored by a restrained high-harmony flourish. Paired with Ryan Lum’s evocative guitar and the duo’s hypnotic production, the track settles into a velvet-lined atmosphere that feels both intimate and faintly untouchable.

The Sirene podcast said of the single:

With “Desirable,” Love Spirals Downwards move into a more outward-facing dimension without losing the qualities that belong to their music: the warmth of a night and that almost hypnotic pull that is difficult to resist.

This time, though, the sensuality of a gaze and the desire running through the song are added to it all.

And so, chapter after chapter, Anji and Ryan continue to build their story, once again leaving us suspended between what we see and what their music enables us to imagine.

Ryan and Anji Lum’s brand new single for July is available now on all streaming platforms, digital music stores, and via YouTube Music.

From Bandcamp:

“Haunted” drifts through half-lit rooms during those quiet, heavy hours when your space feels crowded by what is no longer there, and voices from the past continue to echo. 

This genre-blending track draws from the duo’s dream-pop roots while remaining future-focused, marrying contemporary electronic textures and beats with a shimmering atmospheric haze. Stately piano and Ryan Lum’s evocative ethereal guitar create a lush backdrop for Anji Lum’s intimate yet restrained vocals layered with ghostlike high harmonies.

Following the journey back to the self in “Broken,” “Haunted” settles into the aftermath: a reckoning with absence as the specter of the past inhabits every room, refusing to fade.

Sound and Vision said our 2026 singles series followed an “ethereal and silky path of dream pop” that is “connecting with [our] roots and sounding so fresh and smooth,” observing that our latest single “floats into a territory where contemporary electronics and dreamlike atmospheres coexist naturally.” 

Kari Magi of Absynth Space noted that “Ryan Lum’s guitar playing evokes all of the loneliness of midnight thought,” while “Anji Lum’s voice falls like velvet across the music,” and “breathe[s] with all of the bereft emotion within the lyrics.”

The Sirene Podcast called it “another exquisite piece of dream pop infused with subtle electronic textures,” and “a world of rare beauty,” concluding that “Haunted” is “Another testament to the duo’s distinctive artistic sensitivity.”

Ryan and Anji’s brand new single for June is available now on streaming platforms and digital music stores, as well as via YouTube Music.

From Bandcamp:

If “Dissociate” was a retreat into the void, “Broken” is the journey back. Blending organic trip-hop rhythms with dream-pop textures, the song pairs Ryan Lum’s shimmering guitars with Anji Lum’s soulful-yet-ethereal vocal harmonies. Moving from shadow into light, “Broken” is a meditation on emotional self-protection and the habits we form to shield ourselves. It’s a soundtrack for those hazy hours when intrusive thoughts slow their spiral, and you realize you might be okay after all.

The Sirene Podcast wrote, in part:

Love Spirals Downwards described the previous single, “Dissociate,” as a song to be heard at two in the morning. From that image, a concept was born—in our own words—of a secret room far from the noise of the world.

“Broken,” the newly released track, seems to bring us right back there a few hours later, when the night is not yet over and a thin mist continues to shroud thoughts and memories.

Ryan Lum’s luminous guitars intertwine with soft, pulsing trip-hop rhythms, while Anji Lum’s captivating voice traverses fragility with an almost disarming delicacy.

Like the mist that softens the contours of the landscape without erasing it, “Broken” does not completely dissolve the unrest. It simply offers a place to rest.

The duo’s YouTube video provides a visual journey through the hazy corridors of the mind. The imagery, captured in a singular photoshoot, serves as a quiet anchor for the lyrics—a dream-like progression of light and shadow on rippling water that mirrors the song’s internal architecture. Watch it on the YouTube player below.

The duo’s new single “Dissociate” finds Ryan and Anji Lum venturing into much darker sonic territory than previous cut “No Reply.” Driven by sparse, hypnotic beats and Ryan’s shimmering guitar, the song creates an intimate atmosphere where Anji’s fragile, whispering vocals can unspool without resistance. It’s a track built for candle-lit solitude, noise-canceling headphones in urban chaos, and the playlists that keep you from crashing out entirely. Fans of “Noumenon” (2024) and “Gray” (2026) will find “Dissociate” pushing even further into that restless, interior space.

Sirene Podcast said that “Dissociate” is “more than a song: a small inner refuge, a half-remembered dream, an invitation to find peace in the silence of the night.“

Music blog I Die: You Die called “Dissociate”: “A historical piece,” noting, “The lush production, sweet and understated delivery and chill groove are all things that have defined the band’s output.“
