MAX GRABKE is a representative of the electronic underground scene with more than 20 years of experience and a huge baggage of music compilations. In his every set, you can instantly recognize his style, sustained over the years, where the soft atmospheric-melodic component, aesthetically woven into the technological rigor of the rhythmic pattern, creates a truly unique structure for the flight of his exclusive mixes. He began to form his unique and innovative style from high-quality electronic minimal music since the early 2000s. In 2004, he became a resident of the legendary Moscow club MIX, which was part of the "Deepmix.ru" project, known throughout the world for its radio broadcasting. As a result, Max joined the cooperation with the Moscow radio, developing the style of "Deepmix.ru" with exclusive sets from the studio "OBO & HOBOS". In 2006, he received an offer to become a resident at the Shanti club, where he later co-organized the "Minimal for lonley man" parties. These events delighted the Moscow public and brought an instructive wave of minimal techno education to the masses. This was followed by a constant and extensive touring activity throughout Russia, as well as residency in almost all the best clubs in Moscow, fixed by releases of official mixes: “Minimal for lonley men. Vol.2", (Shanti, 2006), "Sub-technic" (Mix, 2007), "3.14" (Shanti, 2008), "Tech it easy Collection" (Solianka, 2008), "Step inside" ( Arma17, 2009). In 2008, he participated in the development of another well-known radio stream "Rts.fm". At the same time, in collaboration with Kammerton, he implemented a studio project - a universal mix based on Darren Aronofsky's film "Pi". It took half a year of painstaking studio work, more than 200 vinyl records, samples, loops and musical fragments, assembled under the concept of "3.14" in an hour-long techno mix. By 2010, Max (a.k.a. "Broken Fingers") expanded his musical range to include experimental hip hop electronics. Together with DJ Krlow (aka "Shiny Boots"), an ex-producer from the Russian rap group "Krovostok", he launched a series of parties "Twil". Through live performances, exclusive artists of the aforementioned genre such as Bullion, Floating Points, Fulgeance, Onra, they helped to introduce a fresh look at the development of the global alternative electronic scene to the Moscow public. Since 2011, Max has begun to spread his musical activity throughout Europe, gaining momentum at the performances of such festivals and clubs as: Sonne Mond Sterne, Meeresrausch, Deep in the Forest, Katerholzig, Kater Blau, Chalet, Welt Echo, Sektor Evolution, Folklor , Südpol, Moloch, Tante Emma, 102, Sabotage, City Club, Strand 22, Tunnel, Golden Gate, Jaz, A38, etc. At the same time, he worked hard on the project "150 Session's for Deepmix Moscow Radio", where from 2011 to 2013 for almost two years he implemented one session every 3 days without a break, it was a real marathon-journey through the world of treasures in the depths of deep sound. Subsequently, several pages, in one of the issues of the cult German magazine "Groove", were devoted to the creative path of Max, as well as the formation and unprecedented contribution to the development of the unique sound of "Deepmix.ru". In 2013, he released a collaboration with AntonZap, which is published on Anton's Ethereal Sound label. Since mid-2014, he has collaborated with the German team "Manege8" and the heart of its ideology City Club. Since 2015, Max has been organizing significant events with the Moscow "T&K" team, including the "Meets" festival, in the cult project of the unique Moscow club Rodnya. In 2016, he worked closely in organizing events with a community of old friends, such as Sil from Easy Changes - "Brothers", Lega - "237 Family" and Ghetto Po - "Les Copains D'abord" from the Swiss Alps. In 2017, he took part in the opening of the representative office of the Swiss "Rts.fm" in Lausanne, where the development of the project is carried out under his coordination as part of the "33 Soundsystem" team. Since 2020, Max has been collaborating with the Hidden art space and the Central Park club in Sochi.
