Up till now, Hygge has released one official single together with Indian classical singer Shubha Mudgal. The project was a collaboration between Shubha, Gopaldass and Hygge, and was named "The 2 Project".

The original instrumental piece that set off this collaboration was "track 2" from Hygge's "The Octopus That Tries To Run" EP (demo).

sound 6. Track 6


The 2nd demo, an EP which was shaped more like a short recording. It contained 6 instrumental tracks. The tracks are very loose experiments with not the best equipment, and the result could be called rather "impressionistic".

The title was chosen after having seen a documentary in which a small segment was shot on a market in Italy. An octopus wriggled its way out of a basket and started crawling across the wet cobblestones of the market. The shot wasn't long, but I was impressed by the willfulness of the octopus to reach the sea. Whether he made it or not, I do not know.

You can download all but track two from this EP in full lenght. Track 2 appeared (in better audio quality) on The 2 Project single with Shubha Mudgal.

This first demo CD came packaged in a cardboard sleeve, which was placed in a sealed envelope with an embroidery pattern, a pack of Turkish chewing gum and a postcard. Slipjig, the initial name of the music project, was soon replaced with Hygge.

Track 12, Where Is The Heart? is the first version of what is now called Barbershop (part 1).
