maïa: motion
Francisco Espregueira
Maïa is a new and beautiful name entering our radar. She is currently blessing us with a brand new EP called Motion, after dropping an impressive lo-fi mixtape on SoundCloud last year. The Brisbane-based singer of South African and Italian descent, comes out with dreamy beat-driven tracks, grooving underneath her mesmerizing poems and sweet mumbles…
Motion is entirely produced by Maïa, which is likely what makes her sound vividly warm and intimate. She draws influence from neo-soul-hip hop patterns, along with loads of love for acid jazz, afrobeat and South African house. The three-track EP is one of the vibrant sounds coming out of Brisbane, Australia, the hometown of Beats Of No Nation - the label in charge for this tasty release, now available digitally.
