Description
Following a "Boiler Room" with Kim Ann Foxman that reached record breaking viewer numbers and her own recent official remixes of both the XX and the legendary Ella Fitzgerald; Maya releases the limited vinyl release of her much lauded debut album. The first vinyl contains the original album tracklisting with a second vinyl featuring 5 new tracks written and produced by Maya, all previously unavailable on vinyl and 3 of which are totally exclusive to this format.
Maya's debut album "Comfort" is a personal affair for Maya who produced, engineered and mixed the album at her modest home studio; playing every instrument and creating every sound including vocal duties on tracks like the lo-fi "Stranger" and the hypnotic "Dreamer". Maya also created the album's artwork.
The album is reflective of Maya's broader musical influences both in and outside the electronic world with Comfort having hints and shades of many genres from house, R&B and hip hop through to dub, indie and techno. Indeed "Comfort" also features guest vocals performances from established talents such as Tricky and Miss Kittin alongside rising stars Nadine Shah and Catherine Pockson of Alpines.
With 17 international magazine front covers to her name, numerous producer/DJ awards, rave album reviews, radio and video channel play listings around the world, top 10 places in the Resident Advisor DJ polls in 2011 & 2012, 30+ countries played in the last 18 months, 10 million+ You Tube views, 210,000+ Facebook fans, 55,000+ twitter followers and over 5 million plays on Soundcloud and much more to come it seems Maya's triumphant run is set to continue a little longer.
'One of the standout electronic records of 2013…no wonder she's become dance music royalty.' Mixmag
'Coles has a way of making her tracks sound massive and intimate at the same time, using reverb in a way that evokes both the expanse of an arena and the introspection of a bedroom'. Resident Advisor
