San Diego-based producer MAYKO releases “NOTHING,” offering solace to those that struggle with a monumental question: “If you died today would you be happy with how you spent your time?”
“NOTHING” is a genre-bending sonic journey that incorporates melodic dubstep, trance, and wave trap. Through the emergence of soaring synths, dynamic percussion builds, and reverberant bass hits, MAYKO showcases the strength of his production and message. The persistent vocal chops add to the effervescent nature of the powerful new track. And, “NOTHING” follows his previous release “VAIN,” with INHUMAN, in a similar form of eclectic influences and sound development.
The new era of MAYKO begins with “NOTHING,” an indication of rebuilding and establishing a four-month release campaign centered on his artistic prowess. Fans of MAYKO can find him at upcoming shows in San Diego, Los Angeles, Phoenix, and San Francisco with “NOTHING” dropping jaws and banging heads. Be sure to follow MAYKO as the accompanying music video drops in a few weeks, paired alongside a TikTok campaign spanning the U.S., England, and Australia.
