Fabric presents Max Cooper [2LP]

Various Artists - Fabric presents Max Cooper [2LP]

Max Cooper delivers the latest installment in the acclaimed fabric presents series, marking a landmark release as the first tracks to be presented in Spatial Audio. Fusing his signature blend of emotive electronica, immersive sound design, and club-focused energy, the project captures Max’s ability to bridge the gap between cutting-edge technology and deeply human storytelling. Featuring exclusive material alongside carefully curated selections, the mix places him alongside previous fabric presents contributors including Daniel Avery, Overmono, Helena Hauff, and Mount Kimbie, while pushing the series into new sonic territory. Leading the second disc is “Flecks”, a collaboration with LSB that pairs fast drum & bass breaks with Max Cooper’s unmistakable immersive production. Referencing the iconic “Hurt You So” break, the track fuses old-school jungle influences with a modern, spatial mix, hypnotic synth lines, and subtle vocal fragments draw the listener deeper into its expansive soundscape. Also featured is Bredren’s “Hash” (Max Cooper Remix), a tension-filled drum & bass track built around distorting basslines and constantly evolving movement. The album's focus track, “AO”, sees Max Cooper reunite with Rival Consoles for a more introspective moment. Swapping high-tempo breaks for a slower electronica and house framework, the track unfolds through beautifully detailed percussion, organic rhythmic textures, and sweeping synth melodies, culminating in a soaring central passage that showcases the pair's shared gift for emotionally resonant electronic composition. Released via fabric Records, “fabric presents: Max Cooper” represents another evolution of the long-running series, a release that is equally at home on immersive listening systems and the dancefloor.
