Discovering last year’s Hysterical Love Project’s self-released debut album “Endless Bliss Weekender” was a personal highlight. Resulting in a release on Knekelhuis as Ike Zwanikken at the ‘and felt like...’ compilation. Hysterical Love Project is the project from the love couple Brooklyn & Ike. In which they craftfully compose a refreshing modern take on the slow sensual realm of Triphop, Ambient and hazy shoegaze. 

They will release their first physical album soon on the amazing label Motion Ward. And there is an unreleased upcoming track in here. Bliss.

Knekelhuis # 94 - Hysterical Love Project

Trailing down the dusty highway at dusk, soundtracked by Western-flavoured downtempo sounds. Lapsteels, anachronistic electronics, and deconstructed country ballads.

rolling thru to ’25 with a mix from fantasy in orbit. 

glad to mark the start of a new rotation via this recording from alex. spanning downtempo, techno, folk, aor, it’s an unhurried, deep, and cathartic listen for these cold light days.

reaching out into the eighth year of this endeavour, thanks and love for sticking with it.

Jake Muir is a Berlin based sound artist, DJ and field recordist. He approaches his practice as a listener first, carefully curating, layering and processing sounds that help him deconstruct and contextualize his lived experiences and influences. Using investigative software methodologies, DJ techniques and engineering dexterity, Muir makes deeply personal sonic art that fluidly traverses genre membranes, encouraging reflection and sometimes prompting psychedelic states.

This mix is essentially a studio distillation of the two DJ sets I played during bathing hours at Washington Baths in Portland, Maine last year, for @poolemusicltd. Beyond the aquatic aesthetics tying back to saunas and my time spent living in California and Seattle, it is also inspired by an essay I discovered while trying to find cover art for Bathhouse Blues. “Spiritual dimensions of self-transformation in Sydney’s gay bathhouses”, by Jason Prior and Carole Cusack, explores how gay bathhouses were viewed as places of worship by the patrons and what transpired there as being “rituals”. Given this backdrop, there are various references in the mix, both literal and figurative, to said dimensions associated with rituals and spirituality.

@carmenvillain is an artist based in Norway who has been releasing on @smalltownsupersound since 2013. Her most recent album ‘Both Lines Will Be Blue’ saw her expand her unique brand of contemporary psychedeliaca even further, luxuriating in the sensuous soundscapes that she creates while also experimenting with music concrete and avant-garde techniques. A remix EP will be released this Friday 28th February that features some of Villain’s favourite dance producers. Her mix for Bleep channels her affection for club music, with just over an hour of trippy, rhythmically astute sounds from a range of contemporary musicians.
