A time capsule of some of Annika Schmarsel - pka Alice Ivy’s - most challenging and rewarding moments as a creative, Do What Makes You Happy dances across genre and expectation. Motivated by the gratitude she and each artist brought into the studio following a universally insular and isolating moment in time, Alice Ivy bottles their enthusiasm and deep desire to connect throughout.

Rounding out recent features with Josh Teskey (Do I Need To Know What Love Is?) joins Kah-Lo and BJ The Chicago Kid (Criminal), Låpsley ('Popstar'), Mallrat and Jelani Blackman ('Broke My Heart'), and Mayer Hawthorne ('Howlin’ At The New Moon'); Alice Ivy’s band of collaborators extends to Sam Austins on the charged and anthemic ‘Do What Makes You Happy’, and chlothegod on the ebullient ‘Smile’.

Elsewhere Elohim charges up confidence on the wistful ‘All In My Head’ while Sam Sparro doubles in swashbuckling nostalgia on ‘Sticky Situations’. Culminating in Gangs of Kin’s closer with a harken warning of pointless pursuit. Through and through, Alice Ivy’s recognised reputation for unparalleled curation binds deeper, by partnering with voices as unpredictable as ever.
