"One of the most exciting instrumental groups around." - London in Stereo

"Intricate rhythms, heady bass lines and squealing, kaleidoscopic synth lines mix into a hypnotic recipe...Maiians demand attention." - The Line of Best Fit

Following their hypnotic debut 'Lemon' (and its remarkable accompanying video), Oxford 5-piece Maiians return with 'One of Each'. 
Combining eerie post-rock guitar, Battles-esque rhythms and percussive synth lines with a sinister, dystopian voice sample, 'One of Each' manages to be both an addictive and unsettling listen. 
The 8-minute epic somehow brings to mind the finest moments of Four Tet and Caribou, whilst offering something totally and utterly unique. 

The video, conceived and filmed by Maiians member Sam King, perfectly aligns with the building intensity of the track, a visual feast of abstract images, human unease and paranoia that calls to mind Charlie Brooker's Black Mirror.
Sam: "We wanted the video to mirror the energy of the song; slow building, moving up piece by piece over time. There's something slightly disorienting about the track, and I liked the idea of the visuals being quite abstract and sinister - people can interpret the 'chasers' to be whatever they want." 

Since their conception in early 2014, Maiians have been turning heads with their double-drum propelled electronica. Their debut EP 'Tokyo', released on Oxford label Idiot King, came out in November 2014.

Maiians play their first London headline at The Sebright Arms on January 19th 2015, with support from Mountain Range & Forced Random.

Lyrics:

The earth spins on a line
I go ‘round in a circle too
The world was my oyster
My bathroom will harbour me too
I‘m going on a horse back 
Riding a merry go round 
Until the circle is broken

We’re skipping blindly through the dark
Skipping blindly through the dark 
My mind is a place to stay

I never take the side road
I’m riding on the high street
Afraid to go astray
Too few gains in this high risk play
We will dance the sundance
We will dance, dance the night away 
In this narrow circle

We’re skipping blindly through the dark
Skipping blindly through the dark 
My mind is a place to stay

Skipping blindly through the dark

The World Was My Oyster

When a crowd is singing along with the last chorus after hearing the song for the first time, and Twitter lights up with those same lyrics in the days following a performance; you know it's a song that connects.  Poignant yet sing-along-able lyrics and undeniable rock noir musical undertones, Spirits, the first single from The Strumbellas, embodies the essence of what has been attracting fans from across North America to this Lindsay, Ontario bred band  

That journey has been a whirlwind since the release of the band’s 2012 debut album My Father And The Hunter. The Strumbellas' sound — haunting lyrics fused with infectious, danceable melodies — won them both fans and critical recognition. A year later, they followed up with We Still Move On Dance Floors, which earned the band six awards, including a JUNO and Sirius XM Indie Award, as well as a spot on the Polaris Music Prize Long List.  And of course, there’s been touring. Lots of touring.
 
In early 2015, the Strumbellas, off the road and ready to go into the studio again, set up shop at downtown Toronto’s Lincoln County Social Club to record the new album with LA Producer/Engineer, Dave Schiffman (Johnny Cash, Haim, Weezer).  During three recording sessions during the first half of 2015, Schiffman and the band harnessed a vivid sound that was itchin’ to get out of them.  Bigger.  Bolder. Beckoning.

Spirits

In summer 2015, AM444 (Dutch producer/musician @jay-soul and eccentric Chinese singer @chachachina from Shanghai) and Geneva based Hip Hop artist @rootwords teamed up to collaborate on an explosive brand new song called "Don't Think". 

After a few back and forths over the internet and a quick rehearsal, AM444 and Rootwords performed the song live in front of a vibrant crowd at the 40th edition of the world renowned Paléo Festival in Nyon, Switzerland. Having enjoyed the experience, and receiving positive feedback, the artists decided to record the song and make history with this collaboration.

"Don't Think" is a critique on how social media and the internet invades our personal lives, while making it impossible for us to live without it - for better or for worse.
