Soundsphere Sessions: Maftin - The Hills and Maisonettes (Live from The Moon Factory, Hull)

#industrialpop #indie #hull

Maftin bring their moody INDUSTRIAL POP to the Moon Factory in Hull for SOUNDSPHERE

Producer Stew Baxter comments:

We have been wanting to do a live session with MAFTIN since I started producing their music. The Moon Factory offers a different kind of space, we're not trying to create hi-gloss obvious work, we want to capture the rawness of the space, the cold concrete room surrounded by views of factories and machinery. It was the perfect spot to frame MAFTIN and their post-industrial pop. It feels very Hull.

The band adds: "As soon as we saw the grey, industrial backdrop that's lurking over The Moon Factory, we knew it'd be a really fascinating space to work with the guys in capturing a live session. We felt a real sense of importance in documenting these songs both sonically and visually with a rawness in which they were intended, so it was a pleasure to work with Stew and James, as we could really trust their vision to document these tracks in a way that's real and unpolished, whilst still creating something exciting. We love the homemade DIY aesthetic that runs throughout the session - it has that peep behind the curtain narrative about it."
