Bristol Changes out now on Tru Thoughts
Kuna Maze has found a new home on the Brighton-staple Tru Thoughts, turning his hand to the resurgent sounds of jazz-infused broken beat, releasing two EPs, “My Fish Is Burning” and “Backward” as well as his debut album ‘Night Shift’ on the imprint. Kuna Maze’s music has garnered support from key tastemakers like Jamz Supernova, Gilles Peterson, Lefto, Tarsza, Nubya Garcia and many more, bringing his live shows and DJ sets to stages such as Gilles Peterson’s Worldwide Festival, Les Nuits Sonores and Parisians finest Giant Steps.
Kuna Maze’s debut album ‘Night Shift’ captures the essence of smoky jazz clubs, reimagined through the lens of modern electronic music. Featuring collaborations with the legendary Steve Spacek and Midva (Nils Boyni, keyboardist for Emile Londonien), the album blends nostalgia with innovation. Kuna Maze toured extensively across Europe with his live band, delivering unforgettable performances at Brussels Jazz Weekend, Super Sonic Jazz Festival, and ESNS and even made his Canadian debut with a tour through Quebec. Kuna Maze topped this all off by sharing an amazing live-action short film, soundtracked with music from ‘Night Shift’ directed by Rocco Manta.
