about

Bayliss has been blowing away those in the know for years with his eclectic and erratic approach to electronic experimentalism as exemplified on White Noise Machine, his debut under the Lil_Babeee_4EVA name. He calls these tracks “horror movie dance music,” but the emphasis should be on music rather than horror. Bayliss’s cinematic sensibilities fill the frame right from the start. Opener “Hard to Say” and early single “Caterpillar March” establish White Noise Machine’s premise of sophisticated dance rhythms and atmospheric ambient overtones punctuated by “filtered white noise used as hi-hats” throughout the album’s nine songs. Like any well-paced slasher flick, Bayliss knows when to ratchet up the tension and anticipation (“Cut Up”), when to take his foot off the gas and give listeners a chance to decompress and catch their breath (“Andya”) and when to do both in the same song (“Green Rain,” “Work Plz”).

The most endearing and enduring element of White Noise Machine is Bayliss’s sense of humour and inability to take himself too seriously. From the project’s tongue-in-cheek name (inspired by a Hotmail name generator) and stocking-faced-wig-wearing evil-incarnate persona to the juxtaposition of light and dark tones and harsh and soft sounds, Lil_Babeee_4EVA is so good at what he does it’s scary. White Noise Machine is a blockbuster in any genre you try and slot it into. No rotten tomatoes here.

about

Lil_Babeee_4EVA Vancouver, British Columbia

Lil_Babeee_4EVA is a project by Vancouver based musician Maarten Bayliss. The somewhat misleading name (which was inspired by a Hotmail name generator) juxtaposes the music which at times is dark and ominous, others serene and uplifting.

"The magnetic, tear-stained, groovy lil pocket between dread and freedom. The large hadron collider, but for dancing."
-Mikaela Cochrane
