French DJ, producer, and one half of Scratch Massive, Maud Geffray shared her second solo album last May on Pan European Recording. Rather than move onto a completely new project, as a follow up to the LP she's found a way of reinvigorating the album tracks - an approach inspired by her time spent touring. On the upcoming release, aptly named 'Nite Sessions', she reworks the tracks for the dance floor, retaining her signature melancholic atmospheres and dreamy vocals but adding tension, pace and energy through her use of techno, breakbeat, and trance influences.
