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.

q. is there a story behind the mix? how did it come together?

This mix is a collage of music from my community. It's quite a reflective mix for me, and I chose tracks that I felt held me in a suspended state of thought or existentialism. I think this is a consequence of my difficulties in dealing with changes in my life that I felt not quite ready for. The mix is a way for me to stay a little longer in the place was before.


q. in your opinion, what would be the ideal circumstances to enjoy your mix?

It's good to listen to it alone in headphones, maybe while you walk around your neighbourhood. I would say it will be a bit annoying as background music, and it suits more deep listening. It would be cool to listen to loud in your living room with a couple of close friends too, but it should be people you don’t mind a limited amount of conversation with as there are parts I hope you would zone out together in your thoughts.


q. describe a favourite object in your living room...

I would say my bedroom is more my living room these days as it's the brightest room in my house and it has all my favourite objects in it. It's really hard to say a favourite as my room is made up of little shrine-like clusters of art objects, all of which I love.

Just because it's right here on my desk next to me: This roughly A5-sized wooden board with Green, Orange, Brown, Blue, Black, and Yellow play-dough pressed onto it in a kind of abstract landscape painting by Isaac Rayneau. I really love how you can still see the fingerprints of the artist in the play-dough if you look closely. Over time the play-dough has started to dry out and crack so you can see through to the board behind. The ridges made from the pressing of the fingertips have gathered dust which is impossible to get rid of completely, because of the subtle details like the fingernail crescents and other tiny details that I have become obsessed with preserving, precisely as it was given to me. The artwork has been travelling with me for about 8 years


q. are you working on any projects right now (music or not music)?

I am working on some more visual art currently. I was going through pictures from my phone camera taken this year and began turning them into large poster formats. I'm quite a sentimental person as the above might have indicated already so I often do this as a kind of time stamping for myself. It ends up being quite cathartic to produce artwork like this and helps me feel okay to move on in the same way this mix has done for me.
