Mixtapes

The Hook mixtape is compiled through a series of music related questions. Each artist who fills it out can answer as many or as few of the questions as they wish, and elaborate on their choices, or let them speak for themselves.

Uma

"A song which has changed my mind? If I Could Change Your Mind by Haim"

Juan Wauters

"The song that gets me in the mood for romancing? John Cage 4'33"

Loma

"What song gets me in the mood to dance? 'Double Doutch' by Malcolm McLaren. Also 'Double Dutch Bus' by Frankie Smith. I swear I don't have a rope fetish"

The damn GYM!"

Hook x Brainchild

Barrie

"On tour I kept staring out the window listening to Siren 042 by Lala Lala and WHY? on a loop, it's beautiful"

Black Pumas

'Hey That’s No Way to Say Goodbye by Roberta Flack makes me cry every time'

TOPS

"A lot of people have told me they listen to TOPS in a 'Let’s Get it On' kinda way, and I fully support that."

"A lot of Big Thief songs make me cry every single time I listen to them. Adrianne Lenker is, in my opinion, the best poet and lyricist alive right now."

BUGS

Anna B Savage

"I used to put on Shiver by Coldplay every night when I was at school and cry about boys. Now I realise I was just crying about the song ."

"my first concert was David Bowie touring for Outside with Nine Inch Nails. They duetted on “Hurt” as a transition between sets. My Dad was super confused."

"Daniel Johnson, True Love Will Find You In The End is the most genuine song I’ve ever heard. It’s so simple but so emotional."

"Every Joanna Newsom song has changed my mind...truly"

'We saw James Blake at Glastonbury a few years ago. It was so amazing- it felt like I
was in a hypnotic trance or like deep in meditation. We both walked away feeling
pretty mind blown.

Half Waif

A song which reminds you of your childhood “The Sign” by Ace of Base. I used to put this song on and dance in front of our living room window at night...
