MAXWELL SIMONS

Baile Funk, techno, electronic

Maxwell Simons, electronic producer with Italian and Brazilian roots, has explored various genres since a young age, from baile funk to techno and hip hop. He connected his passion for music to electronic production and became a popular local DJ. After years in the music scene, he studied sound engineering, refining his skills and broadening his tastes to include bass, industrial, and rap. Maxwell's fascination with both analog and digital techniques is evident as he fearlessly experiments with samples, live instruments, and virtual tools. Drawing upon his exceptional editing skills developed during his time in TV studios, he skillfully manipulates rap vocals and slices beats, resulting in remarkably futuristic and audacious creations. These imaginative works often incorporate graphic

imageries that transform sound into a truly immersive cinematic experience. Maxwell Simons creates a connection between his Brazilian heritage and the Italian culture, blending the European virtuosity of synthesis with the spontaneity of Brazilian ancestral sounds. Standing tall at an imposing two meters, Maxwell brings an exhilarating blend of glitchy rhythms and irresistible grooves, ready to take listeners on an unforgettable sonic journey.

The Reference: "ATACADAO 07.00 AM"

"ATACADAO 07.00 AM" is a conceptual EP from BMR artist Maxwell Simons. This release is a genre-blurring expedition, merging Footwork, Techno, Baile Funk, and Bass.

While it serves as the final track in the temporal journey of the "TURMA 12.00 PM" album, this release stands on its own as a single, defined by an exclusive remix.

The Concept: The 7 AM Market

The title marks the progression from a nocturnal ambiance ("WELL 01.00 AM") to the bustling morning market scene. "Atacadao" is the spot where people head after a night of revelry, "where faces, lips, and teeth become intertwined with the flavors of pineapple chewing gum."

The Exclusive Remix: Tatyana Jane

This release is defined by its dreamy, breakbeat-driven remix from Tatyana Jane. Raised in a Cameroonian family, her eclectic DJ sets blend sounds from Chicago underground to classic hip-hop, Amapiano, and drum & bass, imparting a new dimension to the track's danceability.
