✨ Vancouver musician Maarten Bayliss has been active for nearly a decade, focusing on two major projects since 2020. In April 2020, he launched the debut Jackson Ramsey album ‘Identity Thief,’ which was intended to be performed live with drummer Stellan Nundoo but was delayed by global events. By September 2020, Bayliss introduced his solo electronic project Lil_Babeee_4EVA with the single ‘Bengal.’ This project saw further releases, including the ‘June EP’ in June 2021 and the full-length album ‘White Noise Machine’ in November 2021, which received positive acclaim and featured on Bandcamp’s front page.
Following the 2022 album ‘Horror Movie Dance Party,’ Bayliss released ‘Comfier,’ an ambient album blending lush sounds and vocal samples. Tracks from both albums were created simultaneously, resulting in distinct spooky or ethereal themes. Beyond his solo work, Bayliss has composed music for Nike, The New York Times, and various films, and has performed with artists like Cindy Lee. His remixes include works by HUMANS and Rosemary Fairweather, earning him support from outlets like CITR and ThrdCoast Blog. Known for his unique style and persona, Lil_Babeee_4EVA balances light and dark tones, making his work both captivating and chilling.✨
