They Call Me Max is a provocative musician. He manufactures ambiences that provoke thought; contemplative atmospheres that are born out of his own cerebral explorations. The artist’s music is marked by subtle craft, fusions that are as seamless and light as seasonal changes. In his latest, ‘Algorithms’, he traces patterns of culture, nature, society, cosmos, infinities, down to human interactions and feelings to create a web of reflection. Blending jazz, hip-hop, and neo-classicals, he casts a contemporary, new age net that is so full of function with aesthetics that form in retrospect. And it is kind of perfect when it comes to the presentation of this theme.
The track is dressed with a translucent instrumental shimmer that glints, flickers, and glows softly, reminiscent of FKJ. Traveling through this is a loose rhythm structure, suggestive yet ambiguous. Solo hip-hop beats walk lethargically, fusing and dispersing cyclically. Max’s verses weave through this settling, like a meditation. In some parts, the backdrop forms like a halo around his mellow baritones. It is the kind of composition that you can stretch into and just flow. So rewarding fluid. Listen Now!
The track is available for streaming on popular sites like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music!
