Maya Jane Coles announces new music from her alter ego NOCTURNAL SUNSHINE

Multi-award winning British-Japanese producer Maya Jane Coles is greeting 2015 with the debut album of her dark and dubby, bass-driven alter ego Nocturnal Sunshine.

Maya is plumbing new artistic depthsโ€”Nocturnal Sunshine exemplifying a deep commitment to her own expansive vision. From featuring her own vocals to being clad in artwork Maya created herself, Nocturnal Sunshine is something more of a cohesive artistic project than simply a record; it seems only too appropriate that the completely self-produced album be released on Mayaโ€™s own label, I/AM/ME.

Accompanied by a hypnotic video directed by The Fashtons, the driving, shuffling โ€œTake Me Thereโ€ will mark the first taste of Nocturnal Sunshine with a digital release on March 2nd. A limited edition 12โ€ version backed with the otherwise unavailable โ€œNever Too Lateโ€ will be available on Record Store Day.

Vocal duties on the album include Maya herself on the chilling โ€œItโ€™s Alrightโ€, whilst rising star Chelou features on the unsettling and addictive โ€œBelieveโ€. Argentinaโ€™s own Catnapp lends her vocal talents to the darkness of โ€œThe Riverโ€.

Though eminently dark andโ€”at timesโ€”menacing, Nocturnal Sunshine is a heady journey steeped in dancefloor tradition; it is a fully realized undertaking that portrays another side of an artist who never shies away from progression.
