MaxLeon’s ‘Disc -o- Very’ is a deeply personal exploration of the self, created during seven months of isolation. Drawing inspiration from a wide range of genres, from cloud rap and hyperpop to indie and electronic music, MaxLeon blends these influences to create a unique sound. The album opens with “Intro”, which sets an atmospheric mood, inviting the listener into a world of hazy beats and introspective soundscapes. “Discovery” follows, with its dreamy yet restless vibe. The song feels like a journey into uncharted territory, its layers of electronic effects and soft vocals creating a sense of wonder and curiosity. The track speaks to the artist’s desire to explore both the world around him and his own emotions. “Radioactive Power” turns up the energy with its experimental production, bringing in distorted effects and a more intense, chaotic sound that matches the song’s theme of inner power and discovery.
As the album continues, “Disc4” and “Project5” dive deeper into the artist’s introspection. The production remains experimental, with glitchy beats and layered synths that mirror the complexity of MaxLeon’s thoughts. “My Vision” offers a more vulnerable moment, with the artist’s lyrics becoming more personal and raw. The minimal yet impactful beats allow the emotional weight of the song to shine through. “7Phantoms” and “DiveWaver” bring an otherworldly feel, with their experimental nature creating an immersive atmosphere that’s both haunting and intriguing. These tracks showcase MaxLeon’s ability to blend unconventional sounds with catchy melodies, creating a sound that is uniquely his own.
The final stretch of the album starts with “Interlude”, providing a brief yet necessary break from the intensity of the earlier tracks. “RestStop” and “ZG” are more introspective, with the production taking on a calmer, reflective quality. These songs offer a moment of pause, allowing the listener to catch their breath before diving back into the more upbeat tracks. “FlySpaceHam” and “Discovery-Channel” are the closing highlights, bringing the album to a satisfying conclusion. The album ends with “Let Me Feel Lost”, a track that encapsulates the themes of the album: wandering, introspection, and the feeling of being lost in both a physical and emotional sense. ‘Disc -o- Very’ is a fascinating debut, full of emotional depth and experimental sounds, offering a glimpse into MaxLeon’s growth as an artist.
