Max’s career in music started at age six, when he began classical piano lessons. At thirteen he bought his first synthesizer (a Roland D-50!), and to this day continues piano performance and electronic music production. After school he went to work for Sweetwater Sound, where he built a client roster including artists like Nine Inch Nails, Stevie Wonder, Moody Blues, and Ray Charles. Throughout the year, Max is an instructor with Chicago’s teen apprenticeship program, After School Matters, teaching digital music production. He is especially proud to have helped many of his students get accepted to music programs for college. Max is incredibly knowledgeable not only with a plethora of different types of music, but also working a wide variety of high profile events. He loves getting to know his clients, and strives to make the planning process fun and easy. His goal always is to put on a unique performance that matches, and often exceeds, his clients’ vision, hopes, and expectations. In his own words: “I love it when I run into or get an email from someone I DJ’ed for and they say, often years later, that their friends still say it was the best dance party they had ever been to. I have a special job and I want to make it unforgettable.”
