Throwback Thursday:: Maya Jane Coles
Event Overview
ENTER. is curated by music icon and technology visionary, Richie Hawtin. Richie has been exploring the world of sake for twenty years during his extensive trips to Japan. For the past four years, through his ENTER. events across the world, Richie has tirelessly promoted sake as a core part of the ENTER. experience. Originating inside his now dormant residency at Space in Ibiza, Richie created Europe’s largest sake bar, ENTER.Sake, stocked with special sakes not available anywhere else outside of Japan. Now ENTER.Sake is beginning a new phase to bring its sake collection to restaurants, bars, and wine stores across the USA and Europe. This mix was recorded at the now defunct Space Ibiza, where Richie and team would assemble a Sake bar every week during Ibiza's Summer Season. It was at this event that I learned about established and up-and-coming artists who are now rocking mainstages and charting at the top of the charts.

Alongside her production and remixing credentials, Maya is an esteemed DJ. Aged 17, Maya bought herself a pair of 1210′s and learned how to mix on vinyl, and since then Maya's reputation as a DJ has reached heady proportions with acclaimed mixes for Resident Advisor, XLR8R, Boiler Room, a Mixmag cover-mount CD and multiple Essential Mixes.
Winner of numerous awards, British-Japanese queen of the electronic underground Maya Jane Coles has proven herself internationally as an artist, producer, songwriter and DJ of note, amassing a staggering a staggering 3.2 million followers on Soundcloud alone!!

Gigging from the Tate Modern to MOMA, stadiums, cranes, hotels, car parks, bridges, deserts, fashion launches, mountains, muddy fields, beaches, not to mention the most prestigious clubs in the world.

In 2015, Maya’s eponymous album under her bass driven ‘Nocturnal Sunshine’ alias, won best Producer at the DJ Mag awards and was further included in DJ Mag’s Top 10 Albums of 2015. Again Maya took on all duties from music to artwork with Catnapp and Chelou the only guest artists on the album.

Maya would debut the moniker on her own branded stage at Secret Garden and later play a handful of special gigs under the moniker alongside Jamie XX in NYC and Bonobo in London.
Mix Overview
This was one of the first mixes that I ever heard of Maya’s and I constantly come back to it when needing to crank through some work and stuff done.
