Maris Pihlap is a singer, producer, and DJ whose path into music began with folk music as a violinist, but has since evolved into into electronic production, songwriting, and DJ culture.

Her recent work explores Estonian pop through a subtle amapiano lens, reflected in an EP featuring artists like Reket, villemdrillem, Jüri Pootsmann, and EiK — one of the first local releases influenced by the genre. Earlier solo albums, released under TIKS rekords, received nominations at the Estonian Music Awards and helped shape her voice as a producer and artist.

Alongside her own projects, Maris works behind the scenes as a producer, backing vocalist, and collaborator for other artists. In recent years, she’s also built a presence in Tallinn’s nightlife, shaping atmospheres as a DJ with style and precision.
