New Collab - Who You Are

"Who You Are"

It's been a minute since immersing myself in music again. 2024 has been a whirlwind of a year so far. The year kicked off with welcoming our little baby boy Adam so it's been crazy trying to juggle music and mummy-ing.

Luckily I had worked hard to finish some projects before our lives turned upside down. You may remember “Beautiful Alone” that was released in February.

Now it’s time for another Melodic House and Techno collab with Vora and Milhøuse. I really love what we have come up with and I hope so do you! “Who You Are” will be out 8th July but is already premiered on Soundcloud and you can also pre-order/save it.

I’d absolutely love and appreciate your support.

More about this track:

"Maya Wolff, Vora and Milhøuse have put together this masterpiece of a track. “Who you are” embodies a dark vibe with an uplifting edge coming from the musical progression and lyrics. Maya Wolff sings of a call to stay true to yourself, find your way and shine your light for which Vora and Milhøuse created the perfect production. This track will move the dance floor and stay in your head for a long time."

Electricity - OUT NOW

Electricity - OUT 11th May

Electricity is the 4th single this year from myself to your ears and eyes (video below). My husband and I spent an afternoon filming a music video teaser in the legendary Alice in Wonderland tunnel in the Kemptown gardens. It's come out rather arty and I hope you like it!

The most important thing in my artist life is doing the thing! Writing, releasing and doing what I love. Success is secondary, though I do wish or it. The feedback from the promo campaigns has been so lovely and positive in the lead up to this release. I hope you agree and will find yourself listening to Electricity more than once. As always, thank you a million for supporting my music. It means the world to me.

Electricity lyrically tells of forbidden chemistry. The track creates the mystery musically of such a situation that has firm boundaries, yet pushed these in thought only. The synths and driving beat take you in a trance away into a dream world where anything is possible.

Electricity

You reach me and our worlds collide

Can it ever be

Beyond the seams of what’s implied

You tease me

To be heights of which it couldn’t be

It couldn’t be…

But can it be

NEW MUSIC - Broken Hearts

Broken Hearts
Peter Dennis & Maya Wolff

I'm very excited for this special next release with upcoming producer Peter Dennis, OUT 10th March 2023, Pre-save/Listen here.

Peter Dennis got in touch with an instrumental for me to write to last November right around the time the Colorado Springs Nightclub shooting happened. Feeling moved by the tragic events, it only took me only a few minutes to write the lyrics:

I see colours shining

I see love crying

I see broken hearts that just wanted to dance

Broken lives that just wanted to live

So let’s stand and fight

Let the colours live

Let their hearts shine

It is tragic that someone could not only go around with a gun shooting people, but that these events happen aimed at the LGBTQ community.

Having grown up in a household with adverse opinions about feelings for the opposite sex when I asked about it as a young child then later having been targeted by evangelical Christians that made me face the decision of either believing in Jesus or going to hell at the age of 11 that were of much of the same opinion as I encountered at home, I admittedly did not spend much time considering how I felt about the topic growing up. Unfortunately, it wasn't until my mid-twenties when I finally managed to break out of the religious cult that labels itself "Christianity".

I was guilty all the same for some years of my life for not making enough room for people whatever their preference. I never attacked anyone, love for the person was always in the centre for me, even though misguided.

My mind sometimes wonders if I would have explored more if it hadn't been for the people in my life telling me that feeling attraction to the opposite sex was either a result of a non-functional upbringing (which I surely did have but had no intention of proving the messenger right) or that indeed it was the devil's temptation.

Thank f***(cause I don't thank God anymore... maybe the universe as some metaphor in a mystic way) I managed to break out of both of these destructive belief systems. I have a huge amount of empathy for anyone that is targeted with these damaging opinions, let alone experience any sort of abuse or violence over it.

"Broken Hearts" pays tribute to all the victims of the Colorado Springs shooting but also to all the small and huge adverse actions and reactions anyone has experienced that doesn't fit the "norm".
How I wish I could go back to that 10 or something year old girl that was me that innocently asked "what if a girl likes a girl" and give her a very different answer than the one I received and echoed in my mind for the following 15 years of my life and lived a lot more open minded.

I hope this release is full of hope for a better future and a reminder to hold each other up in love.

2022 Roundup & News for 2023

Happy Holidays

I want to take this opportunity to wish you all a wonderful festive time and say THANK YOU for your support this year.

2022 saw the release of "Close Your Eyes" in August which was very well received, followed up by "Nightfall" exactly a month ago that had equal success, hitting the Top 10 Melodic House and Techno Releases Charts for a week.

Filming the Music Video for "Close Your Eyes" on Lanzarote where I am currently spending these Christmassy days was a magical experience. The volcanic landscape keeps on inspiring me. A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of doing a couple of photoshoots where which you can enjoy in this page.

I've really loved releasing under my own name and getting music out there that's 100%me. However, I am also looking forward to the next release, which is another collab with Arsen Gold who I love working with. "Whirlwind" is due to be released 6th Jan 2023. It's already been played by a bunch of shows and I hope you will love another vocal Trance track from Arsen and myself.

In November I set myself a challenge to write 15 songs which I successfully completed. Over the next month I will refine these and hopefully have a year full of releases ahead for you. Bring on 2023!

On a personal note, I look back onto 2022 full of joy and gratefulness. I got married to the love of my life (which I also wrote a song about - Lifetimes on SC on Amazon/Pandora) in the magical sunshine of southern Italy surrounded by our closest families and friends.

My health has also significantly improved to almost back to normal levels after fighting Long Covid for coming up to 3 years. I couldn't be more grateful to have my health and love in my life - This is what Christmas is all about.

In the spirit of this wisdom, I wish you a peaceful rest of 2022.

May you enter 2023 full of hope, dreams and vision.

Lots of love, Maya Wolff

Close Your Eyes

I'm finally back and I'm back with deep house vocal banger. "Close Your Eyes" will be out on all stores on 12th August 2022.
Pre-save it NOW

https://ditto.fm/close-your-eyes-maya-wolff

“Close Your Eyes” is a vocal driven Deep House track that takes you through the emotion of painting landscapes in words representing a state of mind to be free and powerful. The chorus will make you want to dance and the breakdown will get the clubs going. The single by Maya Wolff will be accompanied by her own music production video shot in the Canarian desert which ancient surroundings perfectly captures the mood of the song.

It's been a rather long time since my last release. I had to focus on my health, slowly recovering from Covid over the last 2.5 years but be assured, I've never stopped writing. "Close Your Eyes" will be followed by more regular releases already lined up to give you a more steady stream of my music.

My husband and I also had a great time in Lanzarote earlier this year filming a music video to accompany this release, which will premiere on YouTube the evening before the release date at 10pm GMT. Set your reminder here: https://youtu.be/962aDugZ284
Shout out to Colourflowactive I chose to wear for this who have sponsored me in the past

From the bottom of my heart, thank you to every single one that has kept in touch over these couple of challenging years and kept the music streaming.
I'm full of motivation and zest for life and creating more music.

Maya

"Fast Forward" EP

Happy Friday! (sorry it's Saturday now)

I haven't written a personal blog in a while, so I thought it was about time! The last couple of months have been exciting releasing the singles "Here Right Now", "City Lights" plus their remixes and videos all leading up to this weeks' EP release "Fast Forward".

Whilst struggling along with Long Covid for the past almost 9 months (hence this post is coming out a day late as I felt too exhausted whilst working on it yesterday), it's been a light on a dark road receiving all the support from you, my fans, from DJs, podcaster, music bloggers and vloggers around the world. I can't thank you enough for listening to and sharing my music.

"Fast Forward" is the EP I have been waiting for.

A piece of work with just my name on to stand out as a solo artist. I've been working on it for over 2 years and I'm thrilled for it to finally see the light of day. Your support in any way means the world. Whether it's sending me a tweet about it, streaming or sharing it, as an independent artist, every little counts.

Please see my Press Release below to read more about the EP:

"Fast Forward is Maya Wolff’s Debut EP as a dance music artist in her own right. Coming to all stores 2nd December 2020 on Wolff Recordings

This 5 track release of fresh genre spanning club music combines commercial dance pop, deep house, electronica, with hints of breakbeats, darker vibes, fast lyrics and high notes.

Not bending to the rules of what is expected of a vocalist and songwriter within one genre, “Fast Forward” perfectly mirrors Maya Wolff’s capability as an artist - versatile and with a vision to stand out and attract a wide audience of dance music lovers.

The singles from the EP “Here Right Now” and “City Lights” with remixes by Steve Brian and Austin Leeds have attracted a huge amount of radio play including on BBC, features in podcasts and mixes such as “Enhanced sessions 582” and both entered the Top 10 in the Beatport genre charts.

The EP kicks of with track “If Only” that will want to make you break out into routine on the dance floor. “Rise up” is a track that will stick in your head with its slower vibe in contrast to final track “Running” that saw it’s creation during a caffeine infused, late-night writing session."

Today the EP has reached No 7 in the Beatport Electro/Pop releases charts !

If you can get your copy from Beatport it would be amazing to see it climb higher!
