My NTS
Live now
1
Los Angeles
13:00 - 14:00

Performing live very rarely - even then only acoustically - Love Spirals Downwards hybrid dreamscapes are a revelation of studio experimentation. Multi-instrumentalist and producer Ryan Lum and then girlfriend Suzanne Perry released a series of projects in the 1990s, melding dream pop, East Indian music, psychedelic rock, and ethereal ambient sounds, and fused processed and acoustic recording methods, creating a sound that feels relevant decades later.

Robbie Nevil

Robbie Nevil has been played on NTS shows including Full Beam! FM , with C'Est La Vie first played on 19 March 2014.

Robbie Nevil is an American pop singer/songwriter/guitarist. He was born Robert S Nevil on 10 February 1960 in Los Angeles, California. His surname is often mis-spelled 'Neville'.

Nevil's self-titled debut album in 1986 gave him a string of Hot 100 hits, although his subsequent albums were not as successful. He is best remembered for the song "C'est La Vie," a #1 dance hit that spent two weeks at #2 on the Hot 100 in early 1987.

Between 1986 and 1991, Robbie Nevil recorded three solo albums, the self-titled first being the most successful. It was produced by Alex Sadkin and recorded in England. Prior to this, he was involved in writing material for other Top 40 acts. Nevil also sang a duet with female vocalist Courtney Love at the funeral service for American pop artist Andy Warhol.

In recent years, Nevil has been more involved in producing and writing for other artists than in solo performance. He co-wrote three songs on the chart-topping High School Musical Soundtrack: "The Start of Something New", "We're All In This Together" and "I Can't Take My Eyes Off of You."
