Your Instructor


Maya Bouldry-Morrison, better known as Octo Octa, has been one of the most notable underground house producers of the 2010s. Debuting in the early years of the decade with smooth, hazy releases for 100% Silk, including the 2013 full-length Between Two Selves, she gradually developed a more breakbeat-heavy sound, as displayed on releases such as 2019's Resonant Body. Additionally, she founded the T4T LUV NRG label with her partner, Eris Drew, and the two frequently co-produced tracks and DJed together; their first collaborative mix CD, Fabric Presents Octo Octa & Eris Drew, arrived in 2020.
