PBR Streetgang - 11 November 2024

This week on Topshelf we’re delighted to have with us, one of our artists of the year in Japanese resident and balaeric champion, Max Essa.


Having been producing and DJ’ing since the 90’s, Max Essa is both a Dj’s Dj and a Producers Producer with class oozing out of his record collection, as well as through his body of work which has seen it supported by the likes of Andrew Weatherhall & David Mancuso. 

With a highly unique style often blending elements of ambience, soul and funk, his early releases like ‘2 be the one U like’, ‘Uptown Vibration’, ‘Caress’, ‘How Do U Feel?’ & ‘Water Business’ perfectly encapsulate the rebirth of a sound lost since the 80’s, utilising rich, deep synths, airy guitars, slapping baselines and infectious piano chords to mold his distinctive sound.

2024 has seen Max Essa continue his never ending golden era with 4 EP’s including the release of the beautifully crafted ‘We Live in the Hills’ with Eddie C which is in our opinion, the EP of the Year, with the record playing like an instrumental to a lost Fleetwood Mac album with hints of Crazy P. Genius and genuinely some of the most inspiring work we’ve heard this year, from an EP we will never stop listening to.
This year also saw a wonderful collaboration with Berlin based Englishman David Harks on ‘The Clean Trip’ EP, an moodie, indie dance release showcasing Essa still knows exactly how to work a vocal with every tracks ‘Plastic Bones’, ‘Magic Eyes’, ‘Blind Horizons’ & ‘Lobster Boys’ all being a certified moonlight anthems.

Now with a mix for us which delivers in full, we are delighted to present Topshelf 0128 with one of our Artists of the Year in Max Essa. Enjoy.

art:cast °91 | Massimiliano Pagliara

Dance maestro, production perfectionist, mood-room mix-master but foremost artsy artist and Funnuvojere initiator creator dedicator Massimiliano Pagliara delivers the nintey first episode of the art:cast mix series and summarily did another composition of his last year introduced LSD mixes. The LSD abbreviation stands for LoveSexDreams as the mix-series focuses on music that emphasizes and transports exactly this message in an as perfect manner as one would expect from the Berlin-based artist. That Massi, how close friends call Massimiliano Pagliara, has a preference for funky vibes is also confirmed with his summer-ish take Sunset Funk, which was shortly released on Uncanny Valley. So with his LSD approach he basically continues writing this part of his story, just in an even more diverse, also even funkier way. The first four tracks – unmixed and pure – are musical pieces that were on heavy rotation during the lockdown and are from some of Massi's all time favorite artists, namely Sade, Barry White and Chet Baker. Generally the next chapter of the art:cast series includes music Massi came across during the renovation of his apartment and studio or he has been passionate about for a long time, so thoughtful listeners will recognize Italo records from Sylvi Foster or the crazy melodies from the 80s by Toto Coelo. It's more than LSD, it's a cosmic ride through funky disco vibes, it's an art:cast.
