Artist
Hysterical Love Project. Brooklyn Mellar and Ike Zwanikken, a New Zealand pairing, with Zwanikken now based in Melbourne. Guitar-led downtempo: shoegaze textures, trip-hop weight, dream-pop melody. 'Your Laugh As My Ringtone' is track 7 on Lashes, out 21 March 2023 on Motion Ward, with Zwanikken and Mellar writing and producing everything. They're a radio-DJ favourite rather than a chart act, and for their Low End Theorists mix they described it as an ode to guitars and to unabashed simple beauty.
