Album Review
MAX TURNER is a German and Scottish music artist whose music career began in 1999. While he is known amongst certain circles in the music industry, he and his music are a hidden gem. The oddity of his musical creation is rare but nothing short of brilliant. Now, MAX TURNER is back with a brand-new album. ‘Seeds of the Unknown’ is the name of this new album, which comes with eleven songs, lasting for thirty-seven minutes.
The opening track ‘The language that cannot be spoken’ begins with spoken words, that are telling a tale which is rather thoughtful and mind opening. So be sure to listen closely. All vocals on this album are very soft and careful, soft and gentle. As if MAX TURNER does not want to distract the listener from the fascinating arrangements, but still wanting to tell his tale. Each song on this album seems to carry a different vibe, but all are equally calm and relaxing.
The arrangements itself already paint images in your mind, getting your thoughts to wander freely. And the lyrics add the rest. ‘Seeds of the Unknown’ reminds of one of those meditation albums, or an ethereal sounds album - which it ultimately is. The vocals easily fade in with the background, along with the gentle arrangements, draining - or rather relieving - you of all the stress and worries you might subconsciously or consciously hold on to. This album is perfect to get lost in time and space, just swaying along to freely.
The former PUPPETMASTAZ member is back with a solo album. MAX TURNER has now released ‘Seeds of the Unknown’. If you expect thriving and energy loaded tunes, you are mistaken. This release reflects calmness and the beauty of nature in a very smooth and gentle way. Beautiful arrangements take your mind away from the business we are caught in and sets you free. Enjoy this meditative new masterpiece by the brilliant MAX TURNER.
