Who Is Nightwave?
Slovenia born and raised Maya Medvesek aka Nightwave is a Glasgow based Producer, DJ, Vocalist & RBMA graduate. October 2013 saw Maya launch her own label, ‘Heka Trax’ with debut EP ‘Luxor’, gaining DJ support far and wide, plenty of BBC Radio1 play, a 8/10 review in Mixmag and ‘Track Of The Week’ spot in Billboard. Her most recent EP ‘Hit It’ out April 4th features Chicago legend DJ Deeon and was chosen as ‘Bass Record Of The Month’ in Mixmag with press support ranging from FACT to The Guardian.
As a child, Maya started to learn music theory and play the flute and began playing with electronic production at the age of 14 when her musician father gave her some of his music gear cast offs. She soon fell in love with techno and house and many nights were spent sneaking out to clubs and completing homework in toilet cubicles. Her releases on Svetlana Industries,Unknown to the Unknown, Fortified Audio & Seed Records, as well as Ministry of Sound’s ’Adventures in Dubstep & Beyond’ & the Cassie Tribute album ‘Skydiver’ out on Local Action Records either as Nightwave orher retired moniker 8Bitch, have garnered her international acclaim for a fun,forward-thinking and innovative approach to production drawing inspiration from ghetto house, grime, rave and juke.
Nightwave attended RBMA Madrid in 2011 and continues to work closely with the Academy as a performer and occasional lecturer. Perhaps even more so than production, DJing is Maya’s greatest love and2012 saw her play an energetic set to a packed RBMA stage at Barcelona’s Sonar festival where her set was heralded by International press asone of the festival highlights. She has supported a variety of artists like Rusko, Anthony Shake Shakir, MNDR, Derrick May, Dopplereffekt,Death Grips, LFO and Rustie on his US and Australia tour, appeared at festivals such as Sonar Tokyo, The Electric Picnic, Notting Hill Carnival,Outlook, Electrosanne & Exit and has recently launched her own club night Nightrave.

Finally-Maya also worked on the videogame DJ Hero where her body and moves were used for the female game characters.
