The ‘Keep Me Warm’ EP by Maya Jane Coles is deliciously dark and mysterious. The unique and eerie voice is stunning. The moody atmosphere, varying rhythm and lovely flairs of high notes on the production are modestly yet beautifully crafted. ‘Go On And Make It Through’ has more vibrancy though is still stained with spine-tingling vocal cut. ABSOLUTE’s 1AM Remix plays on the darkness with a deep rumble of bass whilst the 5AM remix is big and thrilling.
Maya Jane Coles delivers a new EP of dark and atmospheric remixes taken from her sophomore double length album 'Take Flight'. Teaming up with Brighton based duo GAPS on title track 'Keep Me Warm', Maya interlaces poignant and hypnotics vocals with her characteristic and compelling production.
On the remix front fellow Londoner ABSOLUTE serves two energetic rave infused cuts and while his “1am Remix” of Keep Me Warm will be available exclusively through Beatport both remixes are sure to add to the mass of tastemaker support he has received over the last 12 months.
The American songwriter Wendy Rae Fowler who has previously completed high profile vocal col-laborations with Queens of the Stone Age and most recently with UNKLE‘s Richard File We Fell to Earth project lends her dusty and melancholy vocals alongside visceral guitar chords on the mas-terpiece 'A Chemical Affair.; a melancholy track arguably motivated by the shadows of Insomnia that stood out amongst critics upon the release of Maya’s album last year.
Also on the release, 'Go on And Make It Through' leans towards Maya’s club focus; providing as-sertive 4/4 beats that are sure to make it into her summer sets which includes several appearanc-es at ANTS Ibiza, Pacha and Junction 2 Festival London.
‘‘Take Flight’ which features the original versions of Keep Me Warm, My Chemical Affair and Go On & Make It Through is available on Double CD / Heavy Weight 3 x Vinyl Box Set / USB / Digital plus a limited Deluxe Hardback Book CD format and also be exclusively available via Maya’s artist store.
