ColoRising Mixes 23: Maja Skillz

Published by
Mari Nordén aka Maja Skillz can be classified into many categories but at the end of the day, she is an all-around creative. The Olso-based singer, producer, artist and designer, who has morphed the sound of pop, electronica, trap and more, is creating truly exciting and brilliant music. Having been a part of the band Shy For Shore, her latest project finds her experimenting with vocal styles and textures like brush strokes on the palette, forming vivid pieces of fine art. The latest Maja Skillz release ‘FALL APRT’, is a documentation of a relationship gone awry, yet musically decorated with beautiful sonics of alt-pop, lush and rich. Expect a tidal wave of artistry in 2016 from the Norwegian mastermind.

You can call this performance art or you can call it plain weird.

Jenny Hval has taken the idea of DIY to the next level with her latest video 'Sabbath'. In fact, was shot on her phone whilst touring around Europe. So what you have are random clips of her, alongside two other women jumping up and down in the bathroom, eating and swaying back and forth in front of a windmill. Some may call the video weird, others may call it art. 'Sabbath' is taken from Jenny Hval's latest LP 'Apocalypse, girl'. Have a look.
