Born in Manhattan, Max lived in Upstate New York for most of his life, until he moved back to New York City in 2008. Some of Max’s musical influences include the Beastie Boys, DJ Premier, Beck, and King Tubby.
In December 2008, Max digitally released Jaydiohead, a mash-up album combining Jay-Z and Radiohead. Jaydiohead was Max’s first full length mash-up project. Five additional Jaydiohead tracks were released in July 2009. In September 2009, Max digitally released Doublecheck Your Head, which mixed Beastie Boys vocals over instrumental tracks the band recorded for their ‘Check Your Head’ disc. Max’s third mash-up project, Mos Dub was digitally released in April of 2010. Max is briefly featured in the Jaydiohead “Ignorant Swan Medley” music video. >>>
