Maxwell Lewis - A Total Surprise

Well, this was totally unexpected for me! I was kind of predicting a chilled out, acoustic, slow paced sound when Maxwell asked me to review his music, but my gosh was I happily surprised with what actually came out of my speakers. Maxwell, through hours of hard work (I can imagine), has self written and recorded some really catchy tracks. They have a raw element which attracts me more to his material. It’s fresh, fun and makes you just want to get up and have a little dance. 

‘All Day Long’ was the first title I listened to and so I will start here. The opening, with its enchanting, atmospheric piano, is good but as soon as Max’s voice was audible a smile grew on my face. Accompanied by Charlton Allen, a skilled and very current rapper, this song completely exceeded my expectations. And it just gets better. ‘Put You Down’ is the most downloaded track and I can see why. With its catchy beats and current vibe, who wouldn’t want that keeping them company in their everyday lives? ‘So Good’ lives up to it’s name through being just that! It’s fresh, fast paced and relatable in the eyes of the youth today. Even the one minute unfinished track holds great potential. It actually reminded me of a theme tune for a Nintendo game from the 90’s. 

Maxwell know’s exactly what he’s doing when creating and developing his music. It’s skillfully crafted together to generate a vibrant sound that could seriously get somewhere big. Right up my street with Maxwell’s talented singing and Charlton’s clever raps - I sense a duet should be formed. Keep going my friend, release an EP and watch the likes on your Facebook multiply!
