Do you remember when the X-Files had that episode with the Chupacabra? Well, it made a big impact on Love Spirals Downwards back in the day. Suzanne commented on its spooky power in this infamous story told live on-stage at the Projekt Festival on 8/1/1997, held at The Vic Theatre in Chicago, IL. Classic Suz stage banter!
Read Ryan’s original post about ProjektFest 1997 mentioning the rowdy crowd issue. There’s some great performance photographs, as well.
At long last, the Ecstatic EP is available again! Recorded at the turn of the millennium –post-Flux, but pre-Temporal — this early Lovespirals release was once sold as an on-demand CDR, but has been unavailable since mp3.com went out of business. You can now find this classic drum n bass gem on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, or our fave new service, Bandcamp.
In this extended episode of the Chillin’ with Lovespirals podcast, Ryan and Anji play every song from their Long Way From Home as they discuss how the album was created. In this special behind-the-scenes podcast, the duo discuss their new album’s influences, song writing process, and production secrets, while giving you great peek into the album!
You can subscribe to Chillin’ with Lovespirals on just about any podcast app including Apple, Spotify, Amazon, iHeart, Podcast Addict, Podchaser, Deezer, and JioSaavn.

Ryan was a special guest DJ on Riders of the Plastic Groove –Orange County’s longest-running electronic music show— on KUCI 88.9 fm in Irvine. After his set, he stepped into the studio to have a chat with Gary Liu AKA DJ Membraneous B. Sausage. The following is a transcription of their interview from a cassette recording that was later shared on YouTube. Scroll down for the video.
Membraneous: You’re listening to the show that we refer to as Riders of the Plastic Groove, but tonight we get another special edition as it is the Membraneous B. Sausage Sneak Attack. I am your host, Membranous, and my side right now is Mr. Ryan Lum. He is the DJ that you just heard spinning for approximately the last hour and 15 minutes or so. In addition that, he is also a member of the band Love Spirals Downwards, who record for the Projekt Record label. Why don’t you say a few word for us?
Ryan: Yo! What’s up? Hey, you listening G, out there in HB? You better be! He didn’t come down tonight, sick boy. [Referring to Daniel Bremmer aka DJ 9-5 Superspy]
