El nuevo trabajo de Max Corbacho es uno de esos discos que van desplegándose a medida que los vuelves a escuchar una y otra vez, revelando su profundidad poco a poco, de manera que un buen día te encuentras sumergido en sus paisajes sonoros con una sensación difícil de definir, como si las piezas empezaran a encajar, … Leer más
Per la prima volta fuori dal catalogo della sua ad21 – etichetta condivisa con Bruno Sanfilippo– Max Corbacho torna ad incidere un disco a ben tre anni dal capolavoro “The Ocean Inside”. Un lavoro che segna un cambio di prospettiva di una certa importanza nella carriera dell’artista spagnolo, forse il più abile e talentuoso fra gli esponenti dell’ultima … Leer más
Since the release of his debut album Vestiges in 1998, Max Corbacho has worked towards progressively refining an electronic music style that’s been described as ‘Ambient Atmospheric – Space Music.’ That he has close ties to Bruno Sanfilippo, with whom he established the ad21 label and collaborated on two albums (2003’s Indalo, 2012’s Bioma), also says much about the … Leer más
It’s been nearly two and a half years since Max Corbacho released his last album, The Ocean Inside, which was an epic two and a half hour journey through monumental soundscapes and gorgeous atmospheres, the entire album an ambient masterpiece, concluding with the hauntingly beautiful Deeper Into the Ocean, a song I wished would never … Leer más
STYLE Vast beatless zones and undulating velvet expanses: Splendid Labyrinths is an album of ambient immensity and immeasurable time. Max Corbacho’s latest release features heaving multi-layered drones that seem to drift in and out of focus and intensity like slow-motion sunlight filtering through gracefully moving storm clouds.

Si è compiuto un processo di consolidamento, in cui l’iniziale e crescente audience di … Leer más
Since he started out releasing music in 1999, accomplished composer Max Corbacho had delivered the ambient community a very nice and consistent collection of highly spherical ambiences. «Splendid Labyrinths» (following right after his download-only dark ambient recording «Future Terrain») is a next chapter in his what Max likes to refer to as his pursuit of … Leer más
Splendid Labyrinths will be released on CD (factory-pressed) and as a digital download through the usual stores (Bandcamp, Amazon, iTunes, etc) and all streaming services (Spotify, Rdio, etc).

I mean, I find it a work that uses a more or less defined language and follows a musical tradition that survives and evolves in time through several artists, with more or less clear influences and origins (the space ambient from … Leer más
