Nice to meet... Max Hammur - 14th August 2024

For the latest instalment of the 'Nice to meet you' show, I was joined by fantastic Max Hammur for an hour of magic, with the first hour of the show recorded by myself, live at Psysquare Chiang Mai, and the second delivered by the Big Man himself... Max Hammur, the Glasgow-based collector, selector, and dancer, has been making waves with his eclectic styled DJ sets. With a constant mixed bag of music sounds in his arsenal, MAX always has the right weapons to make the dancefloor explosive. Starting his musical journey in his late teens through his family's electronic music obsession with help from his uncle's passion for 90s US house & UK techno. Then having the other side of the family tree creating an insight for more European psychedelic funk and italo. This unique blend of influences has shaped MAX into the interesting and dynamic character he is today. Having honed his distinct sound, MAX effortlessly commands any crowd, seamlessly transitioning chill downtempo kwaito or high-energy zouk heat. His sets resonate inclusivity and cultural diversity, reflecting his deep-rooted fascination in global music and showcasing his ability to weave these influences into his performances. As well as this he runs club night residencies at some of the most successful venues within Glasgow city. One being the Aye Heavy residency @ Broadcast, this has been ongoing for 5 years with them booking Poly-Ritmo, Bonnefooi, Discotheque Tropicale, Hand-Made, Vandorta and others! The other is Mándalo which means to “send it” in Spanish. This party @ Nice N’ Sleazy has been active for 4 years now, booking local heroes such as Melting Pot, OOFT!, David Barbarossa & Joumana. Both nights have their own individual styles with Aye Heavy being focused on exploring different cultures styles of dance music and it involves hearing sounds around the world that you don’t hear anywhere else in Glasgow. Mándalo was set up as an “anything goes” policy with the night always being supplied with a total mixed bag of music. MAX has been on lineups with some of the biggest names in the game with Optimo, DJ Poolboi, Minna and was invited to Ewan Macvicars first Pavilion Festival, with them also regularly performing at Kelburn Garden Party Festival, La Cheetah & Berkeley Suite. They’ve been fortunate enough to play all over Scotland, London, Switzerland & France and have had recent support with tracks they’ve made through Hunee, COEO, Eternal Love, Moving Still etc.
