Nws txoj kev hais lus rov qab thiab xav txog muaj ib txoj hauv kev yooj yim rau koj tam sim ntawd, thiab tsuas yog cuam tshuam tsis tu ncua los ntawm nws tus Great Dane uas tau los ua kev hlub rau nws.

Qhov kev tso tawm tshiab kawg los ntawm Maeve - lub npe tiag tiag Arianna Broderick - yog ib qho kev kos duab thiab tsim khoom EP, lub npe hu ua Caravaggio hauv Corner Store. EP muaj tsib txoj hauv kev, kev xav uas sib txawv ntawm lub sijhawm thiab huab cua, xws li los ntawm kev ntxim nyiam, kev npau taws ntawm "Bleach" mus rau qhov kev xav ntawm kev xav ntawm "Jonah". Qhov tshwm sim yog ib tug masterclass nyob rau hauv creativity, ib tug multi-layered soundscape uas defies ib hom ntawv nyeem los yog txhais. Tsaus, jutting synths uas hum zoo li bassy ceeb toom sirens yog juxtaposed los ntawm nws lub suab, iav zoo li nyob rau hauv lawv delicacy, uas nce ntau lawm nyob rau hauv billowy plumes.

EP yog qhov tshwm sim ntawm Maeve sim ua nws tshawb nrhiav qhov nws nyiam tshaj plaws. "Sick", uas lyrically yog ib zaj nkauj hlub, confounds tag nrho cov kev cia siab thaum sib yuav nrog Kai Whiston lub menacing tseem alluring ntau lawm. Qhov kev xav tsis zoo ntawm lub npe taug qab yuav siv lub ntsiab lus tshiab nrog cov yeeb yaj kiab surrealist ncaj qha los ntawm kev kos duab rau Funkadelic's "Maggot Brain", uas Maeve rov xav dua los ntawm lub lens niaj hnub. Qhov tshwm sim yog kev lom zem, lwm qhov kev paub hauv ntiaj teb uas lub tswv yim ntawm 'mob' dhau los ua suab paj nruag rau cov uas tsis haum rau. Nws yog qhov kev nkag siab ntawm kev thawb ciam teb uas Maeve tau mob siab rau sim mus txuas ntxiv, tso cov lus qhia tsis zoo txog nws li cas. npaj yuav rov xav txog nws qhov kev ua yeeb yam nyob rau hauv "qee yam txawv me ntsis, ib yam ntxiv".

Koj puas tau muaj nyiaj so koobtsheej zoo?

Maev: Kuv twb tsis paub tias yog nyiaj so koobtsheej vim kuv sau nkauj. Kuv yog hom kev sau ntawv tam sim no.

Thiab tham txog kev sau ntawv, koj tus EP tshiab hais txog kos duab hauv nws lub npe - dab tsi tshwm sim qhov ntawd?

Maev: Kuv tau txais kev tshoov siab los ntawm kev kos duab. Piv txwv li, thaum kuv sau "Bleach", kuv tau saib ntau yam ntawm Cindy Sherman txoj haujlwm. Kuv yog ib tug neeg pom kev xav. Tab sis nrog Caravaggio hauv Ib Lub Khw Muag Khoom, uas yog ib zaj nkauj los ntawm kuv zaj nkauj "Sick". Kuv nyiam cov duab ntawm kev nrhiav ib co zoo masterpiece qhov twg koj xav tau tsawg kawg yog nws. Kuv xav tias suav nrog EP: tag nrho cov ntsiab lus sib txawv thiab cov khoom sib txawv uas koj yuav tsis xav txog.

Kuv txaus siab rau koj zaj nkauj "Jonah" ntawm EP. Nws ua rau kuv xav txog kev mob hlwb thiab txhawb ib tug neeg. Puas muaj zaj dab neeg tus kheej tias zaj nkauj no yog los ntawm?

Maev: Nws yog ib zaj paj huam ua ntej nws ua zaj nkauj. Nws yog nyob rau hauv nruab nrab ntawm ib tug thunderstorm thiab kuv tau zaum saib sab nraum thiab nyuam qhuav pib ua si ib ncig ntawm lub synths los tsim no cinematic soundscape. Thiab tom qab ntawd nws ua rau kuv nco txog zaj paj huam uas kuv tau sau. Kuv pib hu nkauj dhau lub suab paj nruag thiab nws tsuas yog zoo li yaj ua ke, thiab xav tias yog. Paj huam yeej yog ib tsab ntawv rau kuv tus kheej xwb. Nws yog ib zaj nkauj tu siab tab sis nws muaj zog ib yam nkaus, vim nws hais txog kev yug dua tshiab. Obviously nws yog zaj dab neeg ntawm Jonah thiab tus Whale, mus dhau lub sijhawm tsaus ntuj tab sis muaj lub teeb ntawm qhov kawg ntawm qhov.

Zoo zoo li muaj cov xov zoo sib xws thoob plaws ob peb zaj nkauj - zoo nkauj, cov lus paj huam uas tseem muaj qhov tsaus ntuj, haunting ntsiab nyob rau hauv lawv. Koj puas pom nws ntxim nyiam ua si nyob hauv qhov chaw ntawd?

Maev: Kuv xav tias tsuas yog ib yam uas tau tshwm sim los ntawm EP no. Nws yog tsaus heev, nws yog dystopian heev hauv cov lus. Tag nrho EP tau sau rau hauv kev kaw tseg, thaum peb nyob rau lub sijhawm tsis paub tseeb uas peb tsis paub tiag tiag yuav tshwm sim.

Nrog kev sib kis thiab kev kaw cia nyob ib puag ncig koj, koj zoo li cas thaum lub sijhawm koj tab tom tsim EP?

Maev: Kuv tau rov qab los tsev hauv Cayman Islands hauv kuv tsev neeg, thiab kuv muaj hmoo txaus siv sijhawm ntawd los sau nkauj. Kuv tsis tau mus rau hauv kev kaw nrog lub hom phiaj ntawm kev tsim EP. Kuv xav tias lub ntiaj teb yuav kawg tab sis qhov tsuas yog qhov kuv paub tias kuv ua tau yog sau nkauj txhua hnub.

Zoo qhov chaw loj hlob. Dab tsi ua rau koj tsiv mus rau London?

Maev: Kuv yug thiab loj hlob hauv Cayman Islands thiab tsiv mus rau London thaum kuv muaj kaum xyoo. Peb tuaj xyoo 2004 vim muaj cua daj cua dub thiab coob tus neeg yuav tsum tawm mus. Txij thaum ntawd los kuv zoo li nyob rov qab thiab tawm mus. Kuv tsev neeg nyob tam sim no tab sis kuv tsiv mus nyob ntawm no mus tas li thaum kuv muaj hnub nyoog 17 txog 18 xyoo.
