Max comments: “'Noseblunt' is quite similar to the previous single 'Pawn Island' in the sense that it’s also short (2:19) and structured in three different, non-repeating parts. At the start it is very much sounding like myself again, like my typical catalogue. It then veers into a guitar solo that could as well be AI generated. The outro is very non-typical for my style. It’s based on chopped up samples and features more old school hip-hop sounding drums, instead of the typical modern 808 style drum sound that I usually go for. The sample from Nelly's 'Dilemma' is kind of an easter egg for the more engaged and attentive listener. 'Noseblunt' is the first tune on the album and meant to make the listener curious for the rest of the record.”
Max "Waxamilion" Dornauer, hailing from the serene landscapes of Austria, is a musician known for his easygoing style and knack for blending genres. Starting his musical journey at the tender age of six against the backdrop of the Alps, the jazz-influenced guitarist has grown into an experimental songwriter and a production fanatic.
Operating under the alias Waxamilion, Max has built a devoted fanbase through a DIY approach. Collaborating with notable artists like Jack Gardiner, Charlie Robbins (Artificial Language), Marcos Mena (Standards), Forrest Rice (Covet), Stephen Taranto (The Helix Nebula), Richard Henshall (Haken), Wes Thrailkill, Travis Orbin, and Dan James Griffin has added depth to his musical repertoire.
Max's musical fusion is a laid-back blend of RnB sophistication and the rhythmic vibes of progressive rock and metal. He effortlessly merges angular guitar lines with mellow hip-hop beats, crafting an engaging sound that occasionally ventures into exhilarating spontaneity.
Taking his tunes on the road, Waxamilion achieved a notable milestone by playing a support show for Unprocessed in Los Angeles in April 2023. This experience, coupled with captivating audiences in the United States, Mexico, and India, highlights Max's commitment to expanding his reach on the global stage.
Notably, he released his sophomore album, Random Notes, on 29th December 2023, marking a new chapter and his first album available on vinyl, adding an extra layer of warmth to his musical catalog.
