ABOUT THIS ITEM

After his "Bare Feet" EP dropped out of the blue in 2009, Max has been delivering track after track to the Ramp offices, the best of which are gathered here on his debut album "Cool Water". Originally from the back woods, Dunbar now plies his trade as a DJ / producer in the city, co-producing Beautiful Swimmers MCing in Food For Animals and running his own Future Times label. "Cool Water" is a straight up trip through Dunbar's musical taste. “Pretty Please” is on some boogie party fly shit, and the rest of the tracks sort of travel down from there like some DNA, just unraveling all the zones that he goes to; “Sno Mega” is for rollerskates, “Way Down” is an earth tone blast, “Girls Dream” is slow ocean disco / beatdown house, “Rhythm Track For Rashied Ali” is a house slam in honor of the illest drummer ever, “Lemon & Lime” is what happened when he got into Afx's "Polygon Window", “Original Soundtrack Flutes” is his new age anthem, and “Breathe What U Say” lays it all out at the end like some Brian Eno + Cluster meets T-Pain vibe - just layers and layers of him breathing into a vocoder, dripping away.
