Rapper-turned-house producer Maxmillion Dunbar will release his new album Cool Water on Ramp Recordings on October 11th. Expect things to get very loungy and laidback on this one.
Maxmillion Dunbar has been making music for quite some time but is relatively new to the electronic genre. He started as a rapper under the guise of Vulture Voltaire but nowadays focuses on slow, sunny house tunes with subtle references to his hiphop background.
The album Cool Water follows his Girl Dream EP from earlier this year. "[The album] is a straight up trip through me, 'Pretty Please' is on some boogie party fly shit... 'Sno Mega' is for rollerskates, 'Way Down' is an earth tone blast, 'Girls Dream' is slow ocean disco, 'Rhythm Track for Rashied Ali' is a house slam in honor of the illest drummer ever, 'Lemon & Lime' is what happened when I got really into this one Polygon Window song this year. 'Original Soundtrack Flutes' is my New Age anthem. And 'Breathe What U Say' lays it all out at the end like some Brian Eno and Cluster meets T-Pain vibe, just layers and layers of me breathing into a vocoder, dripping away." Tracklist 1.
