M.I.A. - Maya (Vinyl)

'Maya' is M.I.A.'s thuird studio album, originally released in 2010. Songwriting and production for the album were primarily handled by M.I.A. and Blaqstarr. Rusko and Derek E. Miller of Sleigh Bells are among the collaborators on the album, as are M.I.A.'s long-time associates Diplo and Switch. The album was mainly composed and recorded at M.I.A.'s house in Los Angeles.

Elements of industrial music were incorporated into M.I.A.'s sound for the first time.
