CMU Approved
Approved: 8Bitch (Best Of Approved 2010)
By Andy Malt | Published on Monday 13 December 2010
Back home in Slovenia, Maya Medvesek is best known as an actress and TV presenter, over here she’s becoming increasingly known as Glasgow-based producer 8Bitch, making music which she describes as “a blend of synth-funk, hip hop and techno” and her dad calls “Super Mario jazz”. Both are accurate, but one sounds like more fun.
Her tracks have a soulful, warm feel that can be so hard to capture in techno and more minimal production in general. Tracks like ‘Heart Bit and ‘Safari’ don’t just make you want to dance, they’ll bring a smile to your face and a wobble of bass to your heart, too. This year she’s released her excellent ‘G41’ single via Slit Jockey in May, while new EP, ‘Equinox’, came out on Seed last month.
