Hard and Deep Sodomy of Society

05/12/2024

After the worldwide acclaimed Max Enix's Far From Home Albums (New Reviews/Interviews/Articles/Goodies and finally modern/futuristic and unique Shows to come especially Asia, US, UK... between others and the possible creation of an international label for all kind of music: Enix records)! Beauty in Darkness (Autumn 2025) and Ocean of Light (Autumn 2026) between others projects (Cinema...) to come ! Each Albums completely different from another in different artistic universe ! Enter the transcendence soon (every levels) ! An explosion of emotion is imminent!  Video on the Max Enix Facebook Page...

Some lyrics already I have wrote (taken from Sodomizing the snakes song and already protected) ! Parental advisory like some videos that will target all these legions of bastards around us :

The dark and increasingly cloudy sky
Corporate snakes devour each other, slither unleashed
Devilish insecurity in the alleys and sodomised lambs
The smell of sulphur and poisons injected into the
genitals of procreators
I feel so Alone in this rotten humanity
Snakes in disguise, cruel and naked lies

The endless circle closes in on their blistered heads
Those still in the middle are dissolved in acid
Death waits around the corner, as they cry
They’ve done too much harm around them
Divine retribution, the sorting of souls is merciless
I see the fear in your eyes scum, I’ll gag you
I’m gonna cum in your dirty ass before you die

Look at these people
Don’t talk to others
They wage war on love…
Have Hate in their hearts
Deep frenzy and shame
Saw those demonic couples
Those Dirty people rape the frightened in the streets
Their heads are crushed down
Dicks forced in their mouths
Arses spread wide
a gun shoved up
Their clitoris ripped off
Cum in the creative hole,
The sacred hole
That gave them birth and power.

Hard and deep sodomy of society

“Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the desert, the Son of Man must also be lifted up." "So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and separate the wicked from among the righteous"

<3

*Max Enix : Composer (music), Songwriter, Singer, Artistic director, Lyricist, Actor (Videos...) Etc... ! Thomas Kubler : Orchestrator & Arrangements !

**Maybe I will create new Max Enix pages because some diabolical people tries to control these ones (and all the people around) and not only (put filters to avoid visibility) with cyber hackers/spies ! These lyrics and projects are against them too ! They will All suffer in the corridors of their stupidity and big lies ! They don't want to destroy my projects only but they want to destroy my life ! But for what ? Networks of hate ! I don't know what they have in their heads ! But my soul is safe to their contrary ! Their souls are already damned and destroyed by forces they don't know ! Beauty of things will win against ugliness in the end 

Rolling Stones Ranking

03/12/2024

https://www.metalzone.fr/news/208335-un-seul-album-metal-classement-100-meilleurs-albums-2024-rolling-stone/
Only one metal Album in the Rolling Stones 2024 ranking! Now, more than ever, is the time to merge genres! That's why you'll find me on the front covers of the next 2 albums, notably with parental advisory Etc... lyrics. Fusion. Modern look. Film music, Rap/Hip Hop, Rock/Metal Etc... It may not appeal to pure metalheads, but that's not/never my aim! That won't stop me from making a pure metal album at a later date (based on electric guitars), why not but If I do it, it will be very, very hard! But for now I keep my Vision and create a new broader Future...

*Remember that All innovators have at some time found themselves faced with people who told them not to go down these roads, and yet they went ahead and succeeded THEIR ways ! Most of the time, don't listen too much to those who preach and wants to impose their vision at all costs because they are most of the time wrong and mislead everyone !!! Keep YOUR VISION and one of these days the good ones will come to you and believe in your projects (the same for every innovators/creators like Devin Townsend and others who took a long time to make themselves understood) !!! Dont listen some people that often leads you straight into the wall !!! Some have not succeeded their own way after numerous attempts, are bitter and want to impose their choices in the same time ! We're certainly not going to take their advice! OUR VISION !!!

The albums of 2024 hit us hard and soft, all year long. The music world was full of explosive chaos, all over the stylistic map, from the pop espresso on the airwaves to the club classics in your eardrums. A new generation of world-beating pop queens claimed the top of the charts—and the top of our albums list—while radical innovators made noise in the margins. Brat Summer happened. Shaboozey happened. Beyoncé claimed country. MJ Lenderman channeled the sound of a human hangover through a guitar. Taylor Swift devised a 31-part song cycle in her spare time. Charli conquered the planet.

All through 2024, you heard brash young artists kept stepping up to introduce themselves. You also heard legends swerving somewhere new, whether that meant Kendrick Lamar or Nick Cave. Billie, Doechii, Zach, Ariana, Sabrina — they all kept pushing. Our albums list has the Puerto Rican rap of Young Miko and Álvaro Díaz, the raw country of Lainey Wilson, the mystic folk-jazz of Arooj Aftab. We’ve got teenagers and we’ve got eighty-somethings. We’ve got Afropop innovators from Tyla to Rema to Arya Starr. We’ve got rap bangers from Tyler, the Creator to Future and Metro Boomin. We’ve got the Appalachian twang of Gillian Welch and David Rawlings, the bold urbano of RaiNao, the mighty guitar roar of Lenderman, Jack White, and Mannequin Pussy. These were the albums that helped us push on through 2024. And they’re all albums we’ll keep turning to next year.

Future Albums

27/11/2024

I'm warning you that the lyrics on the Beauty in Darkness album due in Autumn 2025 will often be merciless, radical and extremely violent, just like some of the music videos (Parental advisory ) I'm going to play in a possessed way but Always full of meaning. A reflection of the actual society and history. The opposite of the magnificent poetic lyrics and videos of Ocean of Light (Autumn 2026) before the Apocalyptic finale of 20min. Very powerful, emotional and Grandiose music. See you soon.

*Not the True Albums front covers here (because I will be on it in an obscure and lightning way = Deep/powerful senses behind) but simple illustrations. Networks or people who try to block will also be severely penalized and targeted.

**Some Apocalyptical Lyrics From Niklas Kvarforth and Michael Herrington Onetwenty will be written too !!! A huge spit in the face of certain people and certain aspects of society.

Lots of projects to Come...

23/11/2024

We are the set of Elements. Fire, Air, Earth... I am/we will remain in the end the water and the fountain, the waterfall, the Afterlife on Earth that will naturally extinguish All fires, hatred, the world's wars (Destruction of Bad souls) and will remain eternally in all its forms, here and beyond.

*Max Enix / Beauty in Darkness (Autumn 2025), Ocean of Light (Autumn 2026) Albums and the next ones will explode the Far From Home worldwide acclaimed Albums and almost everything you know (Original and Orchestral versions...) ! Never heard/seen before ! I promise you !

New Look / New Start

22/11/2024

New look! ! Congrats Vlora and Dany coiffure (Switzerland/Collombey)! Great Shows are coming ! The Future is Here ! See you soon 

Plan for the Years to come

20/11/2024

Niklas Kvarforth, Michael Herrington, George Kollias, Max Enix etc.... Some of the Horsemen of the Apocalypse will be featured on Max Enix's next 2 albums, 'Beauty in Darkness (Autumn 2025)' and 'Ocean of Light' (Autumn 2026), which brings together most of the musicians from Far From Home (with the exception of the piano part, which will be reworked almost identically to mine and the music I did).

Among other things, a fusion of film music, rap/hiphop, progressive black metal, alternative rock and theatre. Music from the future, but also lyrics, videos/clips, illustrations, vocals, sounds, avant-garde, modern and theatrical performances/shows (Already in 2025), many effects, a Blade Runner/Futuristic look with white hair and blue stripes, etc..... Not too far from the 2024 Olympics, in a way but less kitsch. We need modernity. It's right up there with the times.

Everything will be more detailed than in Far From Home Albums. Among other things, other projects for the cinema should see the light of day. Cinematic music/fusion. Gradually create a futuristic, avant-garde Enix Records label for all musical genres (especially innovators and those who push the boundaries and conventions). A Great Vision and Team with Serious/Passionate Collaborators. A Great Enterprise. Art Before All. Sign only Great music. Website, artwork, announcements coming soon. To see which new (major) international label I'll be signing (or not). 

Lots of new reviews, interviews, promotions to come too for the worldwide acclaimed Far From Home Albums. Lots of other surprises. Theatre Is my way of living/Working like Real Estate work too Etc... Etc... Devin Townsend IS one of my main influence like Hans Zimmer, David Bowie, Opeth, Anathema and many many others... But my Artistic Universe , way of composing/thinking and Personality Is Unique.

The future is here and it's under construction. It takes Time. No hurry. In reality, nothing is impossible. Stay Strong. See you soon .

*Far From Home Albums and the Future:
Max Enix: Composer (music), Songwriter, Singer, Art Director, Lyricist, Actor (Videos...) Etc...!

Thomas Kubler: Orchestrator & Arrangements! 

And of course the musicians who are with us and play their parts, collaborators Etc....

The Link

20/11/2024

I am the link between the old world and the awful new one in construction. Except that I'm not merging into the 2, but take another path. My vision of the Future. Hard to understand for some, imprisoned in their confort zone and the same codes again ! Good News ! I am/We are absolutely not here to Please them ! They follow a path of regression or stagnation that takes them straight into the wall, new wars and a mind-numbing slope. I don't hear them and don't enter in the ranks. I am/ we are following a path of evolution in 2024 (Music, Illustrations, Videos, Shows, Label creation or others, Movies, Vocals, Fusion, Look,  Work...) ! Time to Evolve ! A different Vision ! We are the Enemies of Reality ! The reality is here and more powerful than anything ! I am the bug in the Matrix ! And you ?

Next Gen

15/11/2024

Beauty in Darkness (Autumn 2025) will be a very hard, dark and poetic album ! Ocean of Light (Autumn 2026) will be an ode to reverie and delicacy. The calm before the final Apocalypse on the final 20min track (Light & Darkness United against the Excited Scumbags and jokesters of this Earth), the end of humanity and dirty people, sickly corruption, a new era of souls and other perspectives! Avant Garde ! Reality ! Away From the social networks, All the condemned idiots circles around and their stupid games. No I will never stop for them even if they throw stones everywhere and tries to block all issues. These sons/daughters of Bitches are already in the hell's fires. Everyone will finally see their traps, manipulation and Fake promises. Go away From them when Theres still time. Never heard/Seen before ! See you soon ! LOVE.

*Sodomizing the Snakes song/video will be for them and not only ! A flick in the face then An Atomic Bomb  for them before turning it all into Pain and Love. Our souls are safe.

Future Shows

15/11/2024

Before the release of the 2 new Max Enix Albums, Beauty in Darkness (Autumn/Winter 2025) and Ocean of Light (Autumn 2026), I'm already thinking about certain live conditions for representing Far From Home, selling Albums, Tshirts (goodies...) etc.... And above all to meet you! The configuration will be unique and never seen before to mark a difference. Alone on stage (or maybe with a female singer but not sure), singing among other things (with a new futuristic, even steampunk look = pastel blue/white hair, powerful/sensitive/theatrical vocals and many surprises), with incredible fluorescent lighting to symbolise certain guests and colour codes (Universe, Planets, Constellations, Dimensions...). Orchestral intermissions Etc... All to be developed on a larger scale at a later date with huge things/means/collaborators. To see. A vision of the future! My vision, my representation. Night and day. Telluric and cosmic. A fusion of colours, smoke, effects and Universes for all audiences, just like the music. But not always the lyrics/Videos ! Not the same codes as everyone (some prefer clones). Unique ! The Future is here (Evolution = We are in 2024) ! But not for everyone ! Ready ?

Before Huge festivals as planned and far more. All Is possible. Transcendent things are coming. Stay tuned... The Future is here (Evolution = We are in 2024) ! But not for everyone ! Ready ?

Huge Things to Come

13/11/2024

Hello I've reached a stage where I don't have any more time to waste with all these assholes around, there are far too many of them. I'm going to keep my opinions to myself as much as possible, in the lyrics/videos of Albums Etc..., and devote myself to my artistic projects and Real Estate as always among others. I have already Said enough things. I've never been into competition and people who wants to put themselves forward here and there. I dont understand what s in their heads. They Can Say what they want its not my problem Anymore. I don't need to justify myself in the end. We are free to do what We want and nobodies control our lives. The total average score for Far From Home for now is around 9 out of 10 and far more. See you soon for Huge things to Come 

Blue Pastel

12/11/2024

Let bad dogs/people bark or howl on the lead. They need control. They need security. They need a (Fake) leader to follow like brainless sheeps and feel secure/stronger. They need unhealthy power. They need to hear sweet words that resonate with them only. This is the upside down society we are living in since decades. Wrong way again and again. They don't evolve in their heads and go back to the same codes or Stone Age = Regression or stagnation. Just make sure they don't pee themselves sooner or later in a pool of shit. All Is possible. We are Not with them Anymore !  Ouf ! ABE ! We need EVOLUTION. But do they understand (Fear of change) ? All paths are possible. There s no one way... Except for condemned or damned souls ahahah ! Awesome things to Come with the good/clever ones only. See you...

*You can see this photo and those below in the comments... It's highly likely that I'll opt for an ephemeral Pastel Blue colour scheme with white overtones for future concerts, some pictures or videos among other things, to reinforce the futuristic, Blade Runner-style, theatrical, avant-garde feel...

Far From Home New Review

11/11/2024

Stunning new Far From Home review in Loud Enough magazine. Thank you so much for your Amazing words . Many more reviews to come. 90% of Reviews come from my research and investment. 3% from the Italian label (out of the game on many points apart From dogs & Girls =  Expert in manipulation and disinformations like others around) and 7% from a Greek PR agency in the past. So I'm continuing to work on my own (more efficient) while waiting to sign with a much better label for future Max Enix Albums and to re-release the Far From Home Albums. See you soon.

Halloween Improvisation

01/11/2024

Here's a succession of improvisations and moods done in 5 hours yesterday. Bug to share it on Facebook (don't know why again) so here's a TikTok link: https://www.tiktok.com/@maxenix01/video/7432262818088471841 and Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/DB062l9urjj/ Simple themes with no real in-depth research. I didn't have time to do more as agreed because I wanted to get it out on Halloween day and I would have needed another day to get out an improvisation of an hour or even 2. I didn't really have the Halloween themes in mind here (except for certain atmospheres), but we have a fairly avant-garde mix with occasional vocals (without any real lyrics)! I always base my work above all on emotions and creativity. The rest comes later, especially for the official compositions. Anything goes. I'll put progressively links to previous improvisations in the comments on Facebook, and above all a medley of some of the very first demos from the 2 new albums to come in 2025 (Beauty in Darkness) and 2026 (Ocean of Light) before definitive ones and orchestrations Etc... These Albums which will be even more elaborate and grandiose than Far From Home. These 2 New Albums Composed in 2 weeks by the way (One album per week) ! Far From Home was composed in a few months. But of course it takes more time to add the lyrics, vocals, others instruments Etc... Always different, Always better than the previous ones Etc... See you soon and don't be afraid by this improvisation ahah 

Work

Work for Stéphane Plaza Immobilier now. The best in France. Commercial/Real Estate again. With beautiful office and others. This allows me to work hard on my artistic projects at the same time. Don't hesitate if you have property for sale or are looking for a property Etc... The cards are coming in. See you soon

Divine Forces

23/10/2024

History repeats itself again and again. Remember. Fake, clean-looking people destroying Innocents in different ways and in different directions. And life goes on... Far From Home will remain an artistic lesson to the masses. Beauty in Darkness (Autumn 2025) and Ocean of Light (Autumn 2026) will be the tomb of the executors' souls, traitors and their definitive end. They can do nothing against divine forces and the sorting of souls. Light and darkness united against all these dirty people. Passion remains and joins in the final punishment. A test of time that the jokesters and cheaters cannot understand. Above all expectations and Beyond words. Before a New Soul Age. Our kingdom is definitely not theirs. We evolve differently.  Transcendence is priceless. Reality Is the Key. See you soon.

As you may know, I worked 10 years in Real Estate and have made many Properties sales. I've been offered now a job as an independent sales agent for The famous Stéphane Plaza, known throughout France and beyond or Olivier Serveau Immobilier, among others. Now I'm going to work 100% again in this field, in parallel with my many upcoming artistic/Business projects to come and all that goes with (Creation). It's going to be a tough choice. I don't think I'll have time to continue with Domitys. I let you know. See you soon.

*And dont forget... People who are jealous or angry will always take people who are smarter than them (or have something they dont have...) for idiots (that they are = Closed minded). Let them even if they corrupt all the Assholes around and create armies of haters. They are not strong Alone. We have no time to lose with these kind of people whatever they are. Our souls are above them (even if We dont know better than others) !

**"They Laugh At me/us because I m/We are  different. I/we laugh at them because they're all the same" Ahah Kurt Cobain 

Enigma

21/10/2024

In the artistic fields... Some people's visions are entirely/purely commercial and profit-driven, aimed at the masses. Even more so these days with increasingly formatted products. Others have purely artistic visions in search of the timeless, memorable work that will resonate into Eternity. I think you have to find a mix between the 2, and Enigma succeeded in doing just that some years ago, but it's not always easy to find the right formula. And Time change. The aim of my projects is along these lines, but more modern and futuristic now. Anchored in our time in every ways. And this will be all the more obvious in the 2 new albums to come (Music, Lyrics, Videos, Vocals Etc...). In any case... Do what you like, never give in to society's dictates, don't become clones and above all never let anyone decide for you or impose their visions on you (even if good advice is to be taken sometimes). I think Devin Townsend Is very good At that actually. Never let anyone destroy your projects before they're even released, as we're seeing everywhere now. I'm not sure what's going on at the moment. And people are starting to fear sensible people in favor of bloody, unhealthy money and pure idiots. The fools corruption. They lose their time and saliva. The next 2 albums Beauty in Darkness and Ocean of Light will be a response to all this, just like the previous one, but the whole thing will go further (The worst and the best of society and beings). Just getting them out will be a pleasure for the idiots of our time/era who have been going around in circles for so long and are responsible for the execution of innocent people. Infamous idiots who know how to pull society's strings but have understood nothing about emotional intelligence and past wars. Then, if humanity isn't definitively decimated, the next ones will be lighter, more magical. It all depends. Social networks (the net) are a breeding ground for disinformation, bullshitters, data/figures manipulation and hackers now, where the worst individuals are now fighting for their interests. Reality is the most important thing. And never forget, the harder it is, the better off you are because you have things that others don't have, that they want to destroy. But intelligent people know that. The height of idiocy is that sometimes you work with people and they try to destroy you underhand because they no longer have any interest in you. Instead of leaving us alone. They want to be right At all costs, even when they are wrong. The fucker races with their stupid Evil childs what wants to Fuck for money hihi ahah They are not tired ? Tssss. Fuck you. There's more to intelligence than playing the pipe or others. The donkey dance of the masses Is their choices. Some look like adults but fight wars over territory or childishness. Strange souls. It s a whole. Your path, your journey, your vision is unique. Good Listening.

*Enigma has established itself as one of the leading bands of the last quarter of a century, selling 70 million of its seven albums, reaching 60 number 1 positions in charts around the world and winning over 100 platinum discs.

New Amazing Review Prog EtPlus

15/10/2024

After a trying, rewarding and exciting New full day working for Domitys senior residence in Brittany, where I hold a number of important positions with a great deal of responsibility... Between others. I had the pleasure of reading this magnificent new Max Enix "Far From Home" review by Prog Etplus you Can read here: progetplus.over-blog.com 

Translation (Eng):

"Far From Home, the fruit of two and a half years' hard work, is a unique work, halfway between cinema and opera. With credits worthy of the greatest Hollywood productions (see list at the end of this review), this project with outsized ambitions sees Max Enix wear the multiple hats of author, composer and performer, in an approach not unlike that of Arjen Lucassen with Ayreon.

This musical fresco, with its kaleidoscope of sounds, has already been much talked about. It stands out for its daring fusion of genres, brilliantly interweaving pure Black Metal riffs, the complex structures of Progressive Metal, the soaring flights of Progressive Rock, the sophistication of classical music, Rap flow and the grandiose atmospheres of film soundtracks. The author makes no secret of his admiration for the works of composer Hans Zimmer, the great master of film music.

Through the story of Far From Home, Max Enix shares his concerns about the state of the world and its excesses. He tackles themes as crucial as corruption, fake news, propaganda, indoctrination, mass blindness, oppression and religious fanaticism.

And yet, far from being moralistic, it highlights the noble values, the beauty of life and the inherent need for spirituality that is sorely lacking in today's society.

The different musical styles intersect, blend and/or respond to each other to build a rich musical framework, teeming with ideas and details that make this work a real tour de force and an absolute success. And while Far From Home requires a minimum of investment and several listens to reveal all its treasures and subtleties, the listener is greatly rewarded by the discovery of an album that is grandiose, epic and enthralling from the first note to the last. So enthralling, in fact, that the two and a half hours pass without you ever feeling bored.

Methodology and Future

13/10/2024

You know... Whatever your technical level or methodology... There are good, very good and bad composers. And it's not a race, let alone a competition. It all depends on the soul, the intention and the emotion you put into it, in my opinion. It all depends on whether you want to produce shaped, self-interested products for the masses or whether you want to produce disinterested works of Art. I think you have to find a balance there. It's easy to churn out albums, but if the quality isn't really there... What's the point? We don't make money off people. In any case, I'll never respect people who want to change us in their image, who don't understand true emotional intelligence and/or think that the problem never comes from them. They are oblivious to the true beauty of things around us and responsible for stupid wars again and again. What's more, there are certain people in this society who try to destroy games, albums, series, people... Before they're even released. Or once again try to block or block the way (by putting themselves forward and corrupting at every turn). The cancel culture or the ignorance of conditioned idiots. At the end of the day, who are they in the chessboard of the Universe? Max Enix "Beauty in Darkness" (Autumn 2025) and "Ocean of Light" (Autumn 2026) Albums will be a gigantic atomic bomb aimed at them. And a beautiful Storm of emotions and thrills for everyone. I think that such depth has rarely been achieved in this way. The finale of these 2 Albums (Connected) will be apocalyptic, radical and the bearer of a new Hope, a new breath and a new era for souls in perdition. I can't wait to share it all with you.

Far From Home Orchestral Albums Reviews

08/10/2024

Thanks again for all the fabulous reviews for the original double album and also for the Orchestra albums, which include exclusive FX sounds and a different listening experience. Here are a some words of the orchestral ones... More reviews to come for both versions and already being written. Before the 2 new Albums Beauty in Darkness and Ocean of Light (Without orchestra and only a few guests but more powerful, Emotional Etc... On every levels) that will transcend our vision of things. 

*Fireworks Magazine (The Biggest UK Mag) / MASTERPIECE "The whole venture be extremely rewarding ! You will requiere patience and multiple listens before the album reveals all of its secrets, but if you have the time to do so you will discover a record that is deeply affecting. Moving on the orchestral version of the Album. The rearranged versions of these songs sound like the greatest version of a Hans Zimmer or Howard Shore soundtrack from a film that you've never seen and they are richly rewarded in their own right. Sweeping and Epic. I would not be surprised if the composer was hired to produce the music for big Hollywood Blockbusters in the very near future. If there was a remake of "Lawrence of Arabia" , Enix would be the man I'd ask to do the music."

*The orchestral version is what it says, the songs were recorded in orchestral style and are reminiscent of the soundtrack of the Schwarzenegger film "Conan".
In conclusion, a varied work with many twists and intelligent compositions. The entire album is worth a listen.

*DPRP: Its synchronously offered orchestral version, available separately or as a package deal with the release described above, adds a whole new view and complementary experience. It was recorded with the Budapest Symphony Orchestra and contains a completely instrumental, immaculate performance of the total concept, with exclusive sound effects and choirs that narrate the story. Recognisable through recurring melodies and themes, it offers unique transformed sounds and atmospheres. The serene breeze of Angels Of The Apocalyptic Storm is a striking example, which will delight those in favour of film scoring composers likes John Williams, Hans Zimmer, and Philip Glass.

*Rock Era Magazine from Egypt ! "Max Enix released a bonus orchestral version of Far From Home. Removing the vocals, solos, and heavy instruments has shed light on Far From Home’s brilliant orchestrations and made me look at the songs from a whole new perspective. This version will make you realize how carefully the vocal melodies were written and how strong they were backed by the atmospheric orchestrations, creating the perfect smooth build-ups and guiding the songs’ dynamics turning soft sparkling melodies into roaring waves smoothly and without losing their flow. The power of vocal harmonies and chores shine brightly in the version, the threatening effect they have and how they can lift the song’s energy up is quite amazing. Those arrangements have their very own character, it is strong and fierce and sometimes paints a complete picture with breathtaking soundscapes, acting like a well-crafted movie score, showing musicianship and high attention to detail. They helped me connect with the songs on a deeper level emotionally, I believe I’ll be playing those for quite a while.

Far From Home with both versions is an extremely enjoyable ride, Max Enix took his time in polishing and perfecting every detail making every moment count, creating a solid masterpiece of an album that’ll get him and the listener on the same wavelength emotionally and musically. Looking forward to more from Max Enix. Cheers!"

Max Enix/ Far From Home / 100 out of 100 TMM . Review Link on the net: https://www.themetalmag.com/max-enix-far-from-home-double-cd-and-digital-9th-june-2023-wormholedeath-records/ 

= A masterpiece to own without hesitation.

While certain conditioned (down to Earth) specimens continue to kill each other around the world indefinitely over territory, egos and the desire to dominate (often those stronger and more intelligent than themselves, to assert an unhealthy and scandalous hold), while human donkeys laugh at the worst absurdities, traps and stupidity (society is often a breeding ground for morons who need others to feel strong, not to mention social networks, which are the height of human stupidity at times) and can't see beyond their human condition, while the Earth burns and a new souls era begins progressively... You can listen to the Far From Home albums, which will be reissued by a bigger label in a near Future and will do justice to these compositions, which have received Awesome reviews in the press. Not to mention Haters, of course. They're everywhere, and it takes all kinds to make a world.

Beauty in Darkness and Ocean of Light, with very few guests this time and without an orchestra but with massive orchestrations, will go much, much further on all levels, and I want everything to be as close to perfection as possible, because yes, I am and always will be a perfectionist. If not, I dont do it. No commercial crap aimed at the masses again and again, please with Fake people who play their roles/bullshit badly. We've had enough of them. Fuck your fucking faces. I'll never agree with you even if you use every trick in the book. It may work with the manipulable and naive, who are legion, but not with me. My Friends keep y(our) Personality and way of doing things even if some tries to block or destroy you/us. You ll see their Infinite stupidity.

A worldwide collaboration of artists spreading love using music the strongest way to spread the biggest message the world needs right now. A masterpiece to own without hesitation ! Human beings are destroying this beautiful world we are living in. Music is the peace of mind and helps fly away from this madness. Added to an orchestra team, it elevate the usual albums you are used to listen to. Sometimes closed to a movie soundtrack, each track has its own life. You are embarked into a world of imagination spilling beauty and happiness expressing what the world is going through at the moment."

?10/10 by Metal Zenith (USA):

?10/10 Frenzy Fire and Metal Gods TV (UK): "Majestic, magnificent, meandering and moving. For the entire two hours and forty minutes, 'Far From Home' is a captivating and engaging slab of grandeur - definitely not an anthemic driving album!
'Far From Home' has something for every one, whether you're a fan of Dream Theater, Opeth, Nightwish, Katatonia, Pink Floyd, Freddie Mercury, or David Bowie. And as an added bonus, there's gonna be an "orchestral version" of the album released later this year! As if 'Far From Home' couldn't get any better - yes it will!
Overall, an extraordinary and elegant journey of atmospheric symphonic rock and metal, and so much more."

?10/10 by Onsnieuws (Holland): "The album is a big 10. It’s just one of a kind and very special. And the only thing I can advise you is listen to the album.

The rearranged versions of these songs sound like the greatest version of a Hans Zimmer or Howard Shore soundtrack from a film that you've never seen and they are richly rewarded in their own right. Sweeping and Epic. I would not be surprised if the composer was hired to produce the music for big Hollywood Blockbusters in the very near future.

?8.5/10 Mariskal Rock (Es): "The Multifaceted metal Genius/ definitely elevates the composer as one of the most important creative minds, no longer on the international metal scene, but on any music label that self-respect."

?8.5/10 Rock Garage (De): Excerpt: "The use of male and female vocals alone brings a lot to the table, and as far as the songs are concerned, they already offer a lot of variety with their suspense arcs and both tempo and heaviness changes.
The orchestral version is what it says, the songs were recorded in orchestral style and are reminiscent of the soundtrack of the Schwarzenegger film "Conan".
In conclusion, a varied work with many twists and intelligent compositions. The entire album is worth a listen."

?8.5/10 ! Mythofrock (Greek) : https://mythofrock.gr/max-enix-far-from-home-2023-wormholedeath/ That’s nothing short of an artistic recital! Live this instant classic now! This musical masterpiece promises an unparalleled sonic journey, boasting a fusion of progressive-symphonic-post rock/metal, film score and a myriad of diverse elements, including world/new age, hip hop, jazz and avant-garde influences, never heard before. “Far From Home” transcends musical boundaries, weaving a tapestry of epic, emotional and complex compositions. This double album is not a simple collection of ordinary tracks, but a conceptual music gem. “Far From Home” creates soundscapes beyond music and words, a universe that extends beyond the confines of traditional musical expression. I enjoyed great vocal performances, intricate arrangements, fantastic music themes, incredible solos etc. It stands as a beacon in the musical landscape, offering a unique and unforgettable experience. For sure, a must-listen for those who appreciate the limitless potential of musical expression, an over two hours and a half musical adventure, which will cast a spell on you.

?8.5/10 ! Trashocore (FR): https://www.thrashocore.com/chroniques/chronique/11907-max-enix-far-from-home-2023-chronique.html Something as ambitious as this, in France, is frankly something I've rarely (never?) seen! It's a near-flawless achievement, that's for sure.
I'm much more seduced by the male voices, both in terms of the choice of tessitura and the way they're combined, positioned according to the variations in intensity, the desired climates, etc. It's impressive, once again, in the way it's done.
Not being a musicologist myself, it would be difficult for me to go into more detail about the technical characteristics of the various songs, but I can only say that the composer has not fallen into the trap of making music for musicians, and that he always strikes the right balance between technique and melody, the complexity of demanding music made accessible to as many people as possible. In other words, you can enjoy Far From Home whatever your level of expertise: neophyte, professional, novice, experienced artist or weekend guitarist. And that's really great, especially for a guy like me who doesn't listen to much of this musical genre.

?84% Excellent Review by Via Nocturna (Portugal): "I was thrown into the idea of this album by Max Enix, Far From Home: with three hours of music, an endless list of guests, with the Bupapest Symphony Orchestra leading a set of gigantic songs and with the most unexpected twists and turns. Far From Home is an album that revisits various musical scenes, some of them outside the metal spectrum, such as some passages of hip hop, jazz or new age. A creative and instrumental richness (with a highlight for the sensational piano textures) always accompanied by symphonic, orchestral and choral elements, for all the vocal diversity imprinted by a group of vocalists, each one as its own record."

?8,3/10 by Profil Prog (Canada): "A titanic work with inevitable redundancies on the titles, their lengths and structures which should not be synthesized too quickly; we talk about the beauty of life, faith, the human condition, we talk about a rock opera fresco whose last flowing title should be listened to first to help you understand the musical structure of this French artist extraordinary."

?Josh Rundquist (Heavy Debriefings USA): "Far From Home is one of the Best Album of the month (June)"

?Awesome Review (nl) Excerpt: "Try to imagine a mix of Jeff Wayne's War Of The World, Hans Zimmer's film music, the prog rock of Dream Theater and the sound of Ayreon and you will get an idea of what to expect on this album. Max's powerful and sensitive vocals along the double Album. Far From Home by Max Enix is a very impressive concept album and an album that should easily find a place in the collection of every progmetal fan! The very beautifully designed textbook should also be mentioned."

?8/10 Metal Digest (Greek): " ‘Far From Home’ is an opportunity for you and your “everything” friend to embark on a wondrous journey of choral arrangements, multiple vocalists of every stripe, ripping guitars, and multicultural inflections."

?Heavy HQ (Us): "The scale of the album does feel like a Devin Townsend and Hans Zimmer hybrid."

?8/10 Saitenkult (De): "This year's monumental work of progressive rock and progressive metal comes from Max Enix, bears the concise title 'Far From Home' and captivates for other 160minutes!"

?8/10 AWESOME Review ! SoundMagnet (De): "Densely packed Cineastic Progressive Metal with orchestral violence. In addition to the vocals of Max Enix himself, who does a great job and is quiet varied, the female vocals are sung by Elise Wachbar and cut an equally good figure. For fans of symphonic metal with cinematic means and a lot of mass and class, Max Enix has a musical feast in store."

?10/15 by Betreutesproggen (De): "If you look at the album purely musically, fans of concept albums in the style of symphonic prog metal will quickly feel at home here. There are countless beautiful melodies, wonderful orchestral arrangements and outstanding vocal parts."

?80/100 Rock Overdose (Greece): "Max Enix's "Far From Home" is a magical musical journey, a musical adventure full of surprises. As a songwriter, composer and producer, Enix shows off his extraordinary talent by creating an ambitious double album that perfectly combines many different genres into a single body of work.
"Far From Home" is a work that transcends and breaks the boundaries between musical genres, presenting a work with a truly fresh sound and inspiring ideas that is definitely worth a listen."

?8/10 METAL HAMMER GREECE: "Passion is the beginning and the end of Far From Home. Passion for Art without limits, for unbridled creation and the elevation of man as a being and not as a consumer product. Listen to it again and again and you will constantly discover something new.
"An extremely talented artist, one of those who doesn't just do calculations and measurements with the eyes on the number of sales, but dedicated himself soul and body to his Art. Max Enix brings out his innermost soul, both musically and lyrically, in a way that you cannot resist and what he tells us is indicative of what it happens in his mind."

?8/10 ROCK HARD GREECE AWESOME! https://rockhard.gr/max-enix-far-from-home-wormholedeath/ "The overall result is a triumph for Max Enix, who succeeded in creating something remarkable, something that fans of progressive music, but also those who like their sounds adventurous and provocative, will appreciate above all. He who takes risks and dares wins in the end."

?PowerPlay Magazine: "The genuine emotion Enix has for his music is clear to pick up in his vocals. I can't say I loved them , but there's no doubt he has talent. Enix should be proud of his achievement; this is a monumental project he's put together, and he should be applauded for the sheer effort it must have taken."

?Awesome Rockallica (Greece). Far From Home is a project that take risks and wins. This is a double Album that Highlights Max Enix's ability as a composer and artist. It is a musical journey that transcends the boundaries of musical genres. Far From Home is one of those Albums that is worth listening to without a second thought..."

?7.8/10 by Music Connection Magazine (Uk)

?RockHard Italy AWESOME review by Emanuele Biani, DPRP (Holland) AWESOME Words, Rocknytt (Swe), Radio Erdorin (Fr), This is Rock (Es)

?Masterpiece/Awesome/Brillant by some listeners (world), advices and Many Others...

?Metal Alliance Mag / An ambition that exceeds the boundaries of the imaginable! The highest spheres of symphonic and European metal (Opeth, Ayreon, Therion...)! Max and Elise make a fine vocal duo. Max's multiple nuances and Elise's soft, charming timbre are a perfect match. Max's own performance on Beyond my Blood, where he embodies several characters through the nuances of his voice - and through his acting in the video clip - delivering a dialogue with himself full of expressiveness and emotion.
Emotion is the very essence of what Max Enix and co are trying to convey with Far From Home, and it's present at every moment, filled with passion and heart.
Listening to Far From Home, there's no doubt that it's an extraordinary album, in the first sense of the word, in terms of its ambitions, which go beyond boundaries rarely reached, and in terms of the musical journey it invites listeners to take part in. Just imagine what a feat it must have been at every level (logistical, financial, writing, musical arrangement...)!
As well as the practical aspects, it's also the more abstract ones that make Far From Home stand out from the crowd, because of the immensity of the heart and soul that went into it. Far From Home finds added strength in its ability to rediscover itself with each new listen, allowing it to improve like a fine wine.

? Fireworks Magazine (The Biggest UK Mag) / MASTERPIECE "The whole venture be extremely rewarding !

Excerpt:

In conclusion, a varied work with many twists and intelligent compositions. The entire album is worth a listen.

?Finish note, if one wants to go deeper within the music, grab some headphones (I suggest this to capture the atmosphere of the piece), turn off all modern devices, and find that right moment to drift away and relax with the orchestral version of “Far From Home,” which was recorded with the “Budapest Symphony Orchestra” will offer a unique sound and atmosphere—much more epic, emotional, engaged and complex/hard songs this time than before. https://metal1on1.squarespace.com/metal/max-enix?fbclid=IwAR2-bEccYhb3bUtJJImY0Q9Es6eQnvltALGCmQyZ6i9UtbqicUgb5fkgtt0

?DPRP: Its synchronously offered orchestral version, available separately or as a package deal with the release described above, adds a whole new view and complementary experience. It was recorded with the Budapest Symphony Orchestra and contains a completely instrumental, immaculate performance of the total concept, with exclusive sound effects and choirs that narrate the story. Recognisable through recurring melodies and themes, it offers unique transformed sounds and atmospheres. The serene breeze of Angels Of The Apocalyptic Storm is a striking example, which will delight those in favour of film scoring composers likes John Williams, Hans Zimmer, and Philip Glass.

?Rock Era Magazine from Egypt ! Max Enix / Far From Home Original and Orchestral Review (more than 5 Hours of music) ! Solid Masterpiece ! https://www.rockeramagazine.com/album-far-from-home-by-max-enix/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR01LUT3uWuyT09okmXd2VikWyJqRDIrMgn2Ucpoi4ld9GuTUm-96Sl-k3U_aem_ATpVYGL7D7CjMpgvIKFLkJdy1GskXGUzo9jchciufKhhlxSGlv-NJuKTtcqGRQtPoADvDmpdGl4h6q-APwJkO5FT

"Highlighting the effort made by himself, Thomas Kubler (orchestrator), François Rousselot (Conductor), and the Budapest Symphony Orchestra, Max Enix released a bonus orchestral version of Far From Home. Removing the vocals, solos, and heavy instruments has shed light on Far From Home’s brilliant orchestrations and made me look at the songs from a whole new perspective. This version will make you realize how carefully the vocal melodies were written and how strong they were backed by the atmospheric orchestrations, creating the perfect smooth build-ups and guiding the songs’ dynamics turning soft sparkling melodies into roaring waves smoothly and without losing their flow. The power of vocal harmonies and chores shine brightly in the version, the threatening effect they have and how they can lift the song’s energy up is quite amazing. Those arrangements have their very own character, it is strong and fierce and sometimes paints a complete picture with breathtaking soundscapes, acting like a well-crafted movie score, showing musicianship and high attention to detail. They helped me connect with the songs on a deeper level emotionally, I believe I’ll be playing those for quite a while.

Far From Home with both versions is an extremely enjoyable ride, Max Enix took his time in polishing and perfecting every detail making every moment count, creating a solid masterpiece of an album that’ll get him and the listener on the same wavelength emotionally and musically. Looking forward to more from Max Enix. Cheers!"

?Max Enix / Far From Home
One of the Best and most Ambitious Double Album ever made ! A colossus ! Expect things you've never heard / see before !

?"Trying to review this album is like trying to review a skyscraper; it doesn't care; it just keeps going! And let me be absolutely clear those are words of praise. Monstruous, Monumental. Let's just say that Far From Home is so good that I've listened to it 8 times since he shared it with us last week. It gets better with each time. It's the one album that I consider to be "perfect, I think yours may be the first -out of the more than 8,000 I've heard in the last 5 years . It gets better with each time. Since I'm in "techie-mode" now, I'll translate my praise into a number: that comparison means your is in the top 0.0119% of all the albums I've heard since the beginning of 2018. The voices are impressive. Already in the top Albums of 2023 ! A Future classic !" Between many outstanding feedback in the world !

?Never heard since David Bowie, Pink Floyd... There is one in a million like you ! Completely in tune with our times ! An earthquake ! A double album that will change the face of the world"

?"As one continues their musical journey -a musical journey that is epic, grand, powerful, unique and magical and something different, fresh -again special and truly will capture the listener’s ears, heart and soul—simultaneously, as I was inking this review, I was so lost and transfixed with this release and with this feeling that “Far From Home” is a release where this whole thing should be played without skipping any tracks, a release to find that right moment, sit back and chill and let this musical spectrum flow through your ears and speakers.

A Universe of epic, emotional & engaging Musical Journey ”
At the same time, “Far From Home” is delivered and provided by impressive and skilled (all wrapped professionally/sophisticated arrangements) craftsmanship, musicianship and showmanship, and not just Max but a handful of guests that gives the listener this masterpiece that consists of incredible music, instrumentation, lyrics, story-concept that’s all well-executed, beautifully score and composed -where each composition/characteristics are convenient to place at the right moment. Thus, giving the listener this “Music is art, and art should know no boundaries” of Avant Garde never heard before fusion that consists of awe-inspiring multi-verse of instrumentation artistry of (technical/complex) guitar and drum work that utilises various tones, tempos, atmosphere, moods, virtuoso riffs/multi-cords, rhythms, melodic passages, various drum beats/fills and patterns, vocal work consists of multiple tones, ranges, and clean male/female singing/operatic sections. In contrast, one will find other elements within the musical spectrum/instrumental and vocals (pulls the music together!), which included progressive-symphonic-post rock/metal, film scores/sound effects with diverse aspects of world/New Age, Hip hop, Jazz, international variety and others.

A compelling and astonishing result -with a magical spark of beauty, epic, grand, bold and breathless sensation. At the same time, the Orchestral version of “Far From Home” hit me and transported me away to somewhere tranquil and the loss of time… truly the second part is unique and breathtakingly beautiful. Take a moment to listen to both versions—simultaneously, the piano work gives me that “Freddie Mercury” and sometimes, sections of the music (within the songs) give that (German acts) “Helloween/Gamma Ray” vibe -spine-chilling sensation."

?"I have checked your album "Far From Home" and wow... I have been blown away. These songs are absolutely killer...
Where to start...well for sure from the part where I say that I love it. It’s absolutely great, Symphonic and Technical but in a catchy way and tuneful.

It is very difficult to find precise influences, because the conceptual level of the compositions ranges between various stylistic strands, keeping in a very precise way, centred and very focused on a certain Symphonic Prog with a Metal vein. The project has a lot of personality, thanks also to a fluid writing and an absolutely convincing execution. The double album has no weak points thanks to unquestionable compositional skills. This is the decisive union that gives you a unique stylistic imprint that always maintains a high maturity and intensity. The songs as well as the project itself have their own specific identity that is extremely personal. The vocal work is awesome as well as all the instrumental parts. Guitars, orchestrations, keyboards and rhythm section are powerful and they do a great job in the composition and arrangements. An epic project full of quality ideas, lyrics and sounds are highly researched and original. I haven't listened to a record of this sound matrix for a long time.

There’s quite a lot of variation in the songs but it sounds like a solid album and doesn’t sound like a compilation....This means that you are really mature songwriting-wise. The level of the album is always high, (from the beginning to the end) and there are no boring or low moments. I think that your style and sound are quite original. A combination of many, ranging from Symphonic Prog to Technical and more Metal influences, but I can’t relate you to any other act in particular and this is a great point, this means that you sound unique. Professional production, recordings and mix....Well done, I really like your product! We can absolutely talk further."

Hello, just for information! In parallel with my artistic projects (in particular those to come = Orchestral & Original Albums, Collaborations, Cinema, Shows/Concerts Etc...) and the future creation of an international label Enix Records for all kind of music/genres I'd like to announce that I'm starting work at Domitys, which is a specialist residence for senior citizens that I'll be supporting in various ways. A great job and a fantastic Team (Mostly Women). Thank you for your confidence, because you need a lot of it at this level, and guarantees of good behaviour and security are required. I hesitated with prison guard too, but I prefer that. Of course We dont have a criminal record for this kind of job (unlike others if you know what I mean ). I also have the possibility of getting back into real estate with Olivier Serveau and his team as a sales agent (he's offered me an office in the centre of Quimper = Finistère/Bretagne) but I'm not sure that my tight schedule will allow it and I have priorities for now. All my experiences in different fields and my reliability, compassion to others lead to that. As a perfectionist, I always want to do things 100%, so there are choices to be made. Have a good day and see you soon for new adventures.

New Look

01/10/2024

New Autumn Face. Huge Announcements soon in different fields. Have a great day. And For the idiots who create Endless Wars and have never learn the lessons of History... Fuck you !

https://rattlead.hu/2023/11/03/max-enix-far-from-home-2023/ Max Enix / Far From Hom Review. 4.5/5 Others to Come soon Etc...

Beauty in Darkness (Autumn 2025) and Ocean of Light (Autumn 2026) will go even further in every respect (Music, Orchestrations, Lyrics, Vocals, Compositions, Videos Etc...)! A gigantic storm of emotions. I'll be doing 80% of the vocal lines this time, so you'll be able to see even more of the range of possibilities, the variations and the constant evolution. It'll be a transcendent performance on every level and beyond words if you like originality, Avant Gardism and so much more. Completely different from anything you know. Visionary.

 

*And then the professionnal concerts/shows/Tour with great Sound/Lights/Visuals will finally come with enough material/stuff. No hurry. I'm a perfectionist and want everything to be almost perfect each time. If not, I dont do it.

Deep Lyrics

24/09/2024

In exclusivity... Some lyrics I have wrote for the Beauty in Darkness Album to come Autumn 2025 ! Ocean of Light (Autumn 2026) Album later ! The music and all will be magnificient with huge orchestrations , Very deep and emotional vocals and many surprises. Parental Advisory Lyrics!

 

"Trumpets pierce the Night
Delicate and deafening

 

Blood flows in your veins…
You see demons dancing and vomiting on impure souls.
Angels fuck each other, ejaculate and fall over the cliff
of pleasure.

 

Agnus Dei
Rising
Agnus Dei
Rise

 

Inquisition and revolution
Fanaticism and perversion

 

I take your ass…
You offer yourself to me before the altar of passion.
Take your punishment…
Cash in before the guillotine cuts off your head.

 

You hide in the meanders of this deep shame.
killing each other for so long my friends.
Taste all this blood on the battleground
See all these tears
Your soul is freed, fleeting away from this Earth
It lights up the soul and carves a path through black holes
You decide to activate nirvana Keys
Down the line to mechanisms of time 

 

Look at these people
Don’t talk to others
They wage war on love…
Have Hate in their hearts
Deep frenzy and shame
Saw those demonic couples
Those Dirty people rape the frightened in the streets 
Their heads are crushed down
Dicks forced in their mouths
Arses spread wide
a gun shoved up
Their clitoris ripped off
Cum in the creative hole,
The sacred hole
That gave them birth and power."

 

Elina Englezou (Greece) have check the lyrics to see if there are some mistakes and correct if necessary. Thanks a lot

Values

16/09/2024

Go away From all the Assholes who abuse and use you for their own interests. We have to found an Equilibrium in all this nonsense and break the codes. Others perspectives and paths are possible. It's why I will create an international label Enix Records (All kind of music and origins away From sectarian behaviors and unhealthy communautarism like everywhere) with a fantastic Team with great people and why I will made a video called Sodomizing the Snakes and an other one The Seagull in the upcoming Albums Beauty in Darkness (Autumn 2025) and Ocean of Light (Autumn 2026). The horror and the Beauty. We want people who work hard for us to feel that we are not working alone. Fuck All these alliances of degenerates and long-toothed (mytho)maniacs. Let's re-establish honest communication because Apparently some people dont know how to talk Anymore. People are fed up with all these idiots who abuse the kindness of others behind Fake smiles and promises (In general). Together create a New Society and New companies with Beautiful Values for a better World for everyone . Always Time to change the Laws. A New VISION.  Hope you listen the Far From Home Albums. Look At the World around you and all the Jokers of Farce who laughs like brainless monkeys. Who are they in the chessboard of the Universe? We cannot continue like this for the next generations if We have enough time. You don t like the taste of shit right ? See you soon. Max Enix

*French, Italian, Greek people or others. Fuck the Assholes and Smile. No Time to lose. We have an honor. Dont let anyone block you and your dignity. We are nobodies puppets or slaves. In any case, if people continue to tell the worst bullshit, lies and misinform/invert things as we see all around the world. They will be my/our enemies and will pay a very, very high price (diverse ways) sooner or later. Justice Is here. Dont play Fake games with me/us. Our Justice and Freedom  

Videos and Projects...

10/09/2024

Hello everyone,

Here are the outfits I'll be wearing in the upcoming Video clips. "The Seagull" song from the Ocean of Light album (Autumn 2026) will be filmed on the beach next to the sea and will be a Wonderful and very Emotional radio composition (Love song) where I'll be dressed in blue/white (Light, poetry, romanticism...) and the other video clip "Sodomizing the Snakes" from the Beauty in Darkness album (Autumn 2025) will be an epic and tormented song where I'll be dressed in black (Hard, Parental advisory, tortured...)! 2 others videos normally (One anime and the other one With Unreal Engine 3D...) ! Yin and yang. Transcendent, ultra-emotional compositions (music, orchestrations, vocals, lyrics, videos, vision, etc.)! Some beautiful illustrations and Album covers Etc... Everything worked out to every details. I want to follow the steps of Artists like David Bowie and Devin Townsend between others who have Always tried to create something New, modern and Avant Garde on each Albums but with some commercial aspects too. But of course I have my Own Artistic Universe. Unique.

2 new video interviews are already scheduled for 17 September among others and will be published a few days after At the end of September or beginning of October and new Reviews of Far From Home are being written by some websites and magazines. More to come. In addition to various possible collaborations for the cinema, music for films/series/games among others. Business, investments... I'm in the process of creating a magnificent international label "Enix Records" for all kinds of music and origins with magnificent images of the surrounding nature and very beautiful vibrations and universal values to the contrary of some. I'm putting together a great team with good, well-balanced people in various fields for the Best image possible. 

And I'll be associated with certain media outlets, sponsors, international labels (major labels), why not, etc... This will allow me to promote my projects in parallel and to sign with great companies. Other activities too in different fields... And let's not forget the future Max Enix Tours, Shows and Concerts finally which will be very elaborate and professionnal on every areas with extraordinary visuals, Great/famous people and technical configurations (Avant garde). I'm waiting for other proposals because Always Want to innovate and work hard everywhere.

I'll keep you informed of everything. A lot of work and extraordinary things are going to happen. Thank you for your continued support. I will be much less on social networks in general (or only for work) and will devote myself to reality. Always step by steps, Faster and Faster. Always on the road with Infinite ideas. See you soon...

Videos

24/08/2024

A beautiful video clip "The Seagull" will be made in the Ocean of Light (Autumn 2026) Album (Love story near the sea Etc...). This one will oppose the other sultry video "Sodomizing the Snakes" which will be in the album Beauty in Darkness (Autumn 2025) and which will represent the Dark, hard and Apocalyptic side of Love among others. The upcoming Albums will be the Best of my career for now on every points. The most Emotional ever on every areas. Can t wait to present you all that. I have endured lots of things in my existence and very recently again. Huge Announcements to Come. See you...

New

17/08/2024

The name of this site with the review of the Far From Home double album has changed. Here's the new link: https://athenaeumofsin.com/max-enix-far-from-home-review/ I'm working hard on the 2 new albums Beauty in Darkness (October 2025) and Ocean of Light (October 2026), which I think will go 10 times further on all levels, especially emotionally. I'm also working on various projects, collaborations, Albums and Business including the creation of an international label for all kinds of music and origins. Many new Far From Home Reviews are coming, some of them absolutely incredible + Interviews, Articles... Etc... More great surprises to come. I wait your Proposals too. 

Exclusivity

09/08/2024

As a total exclusivity, I'd like to present part of the intro to the Beauty in Darkness album, due out in Autumn 2025. You can listen it on the Max Enix Facebook page, Instagram or Tiktok. Ocean of Light, meanwhile, will be released in Autumn 2026. Here are the vocal drafts I'm working on at home before going into the studio with David Castillo in Sweden to make everything as professional as possible. Nothing definitive here (lots of dubbings but any effects or echoes in the end...), and there will be a guest on a few parts. The sound is not good and all is approximative. Just to give you an idea of the general atmosphere, even if the final result will be 10 times more elaborate and transcendent on every level (Vocals, with drums, guitars, bass, huge sound...) ! So you will be able to see all I can do because I need total freedom on my creativity. Very cinematic ! Radio and epic songs with strong emotions and choruses. 1h20 each original Albums so 2h40 of music with 21 songs and a special bonus song so 22. 2 radio Songs will be sing in English and french. The orchestral Albums will be a bit more long as for Far From Home with maybe some Exclusive FX sounds again. For fans of Devin Townsend, Opeth, Hans Zimmer, Pain of salvation, Anathema, Shining, Rhapsody, Pink Floyd, Queen, Dream Theater, Genesis, Therion, Era, Enigma, David Bowie or Mike Patton for exemple between others but with a Universe on its own. Some rap/hip hop/Rnb, Black metal (guests) and many others vocals style too (huge ranges I will made) ! More Far From Home reviews, interviews etc... coming soon. See you soon and thanks for the support !

Reviews, Interviews, Articles, Illustrations, Albums, Videos clips, New professionnal photos, Promotion, Collaborations, Proposals, Big International Label signature and creation of one for all kind of music & Origins, Compositions, Big Shows/Fests with 2026/2027 US/UK/Asian Tour, principally and sometimes a few others (more private life)! A brighter Future for All and create a New Society all together ! Fuck Regression & Stagnation in this upside down society but Welcome EVOLUTION and a New Era for clever people. When we see stupidity and brainless sheeps all around (Idiocracy) not Always easy but nothing Is impossible ! Huge things are coming. The Aliens !

Enix Records § Future

30/07/2024

Enix Records/Company for all kind of music & Origins in a near Future ! Attached to some majors companies and some collaborators , sponsors and others ! To see ! Will use all my skills (Business, Investments, as estate agent...) For that. But will sign first with one Big international Label or major for now, the Future Albums or projects ! And we will see all together ! But to see Will let you know but Huge things are coming in different ART (Music, Cinema...) , Business (Music Industry...) and fields

*1 euro donated for each purchase of all Albums for an association fighting against inequality, human suffering and gratuitous violence against women, children etc... Not sign as many bands as possible just to boost sales or pocket the dough, and then leave them out in the cold, or almost out in the cold, while manipulating the stats and sometimes even worse (screwing people over and abusing their trust)! Worse when you actually work for them, because they use you! But with me, I will sign extraordinary bands in every fields (All kind of music progressively) with a great vision and superb compositions or values, and take full care of them (Reviews, interviews, Articles, Sales, shows , partnerships and more...)! The minimum of a great company for them and the maximum if possible. Not just develop sales or money on their backs like some or worst= Buy their dignity behind Fake promises (And pretend the contrary = Inversion of all) ! Don t want to be part of these mascarades and mislead people like some people around and unhealthy/toxic alliances. Besides, it's a whole thing! To run a company honestly, have a solid structure and not with whore-like or scoundrel techniques. The basis of a truly reliable and serious company that no longer serve their unhealthy interests only but those of the others who work with them too (not one exception here or an other There). Not pretence! And especially if they pay an amount to Come in the company. There are limits who are not tolerable ! No limits with me/us but only respect for those who are with us (Artists/Bands/Collaborators/Sponsors/Media/Venues/Partnerships etc...). Not our own pleasure or interests. It's easy to use pretty words, pretty smiles and show your fake white paws. But if it's just to fool people and do a few things for them, it's a load of crap. Covering up for the biggest crooks on a case-by-case basis to make money is pathetic. My/Our Visions are Huge and Infinite to their contrary. We will put things in the right place again So that people will feel good everywhere and valued. Not only take, take and take but give, give and give too. Giving Giving. Great Logo, Great Images, Great Visions, Great music and Albums, Great step forward for everyone and far more. The Future Is here too.

FUTURE MIND

27/07/2024

Yesterday's Olympic Games ceremony was absolutely remarkable! It embodies, in part, my vision of avant gardism, of antiquity and modernity at the same time! A union of origins, musical genres (very symphonic and epic) and flavors! A profound message behind unity, peace, freedom and love! It gives us great hope for the Future! It's been a long time since I've been proud to be French! Having said that, I don't think we need flags anymore! Our souls are universal! With my projects (Albums, creation of an international label for all musical genres and origins in a near Future..., Humanitarian work etc...) it confirms me in the fact that I'm totally in tune with the times and in innovation (Fusion of genres and for The future shows with great and modern visuals, sound = Avant Garde)! No longer in the excessive use of old codes, but in proposing new paths/schemes! That's where evolution starts for me! I'll continue to spread my very broad vision, on my own scale, throughout the world, and to bring people together around the same cause, far from sectarian aberrations/behavior, and even if humanity is what it is and some people are narrow-minded , rigid and locked into their ideals and methodologies! ART has no limits, no boundaries! All IS guided and WE must follow our feelings in every areas! Emotional intelligence will succeed intellectual regression! Our souls united for a single goal, far from territorial wars, far from human stupidity and from people who want to decide for us and make us swallow the same pills for decades! If we maintain a collective vision that is spiritual, beautiful, epic and profound, the world won't sink definitively into chaos, and society won't go straight to the wall! But ART is just a facade, and reality is much more painful! Some people are not ready for that and some others yeah! I will progressively leave the social networks to concentrate on reality and huge things to Come! I wish you all a wonderful day! Restore communication and common sense approach in a toxic World in decay ! Let's build the future! Max

Advice to young people

26/07/2024

Advice to young people: Never let yourself be controlled by idiots/morons/clowns who only have banknotes on their minds = that leads to new wars, bloodshed and hatred again and again ! Reality is not here (they are out of reality) = Infernal circles of idiots ! The beauty of the world will be destroyed by all these people ! Money or not = Get out of the wheel ! Find your equilibrium ! True ART is Universal and have no Boundaries/Limits ! Have a great week and save (y)our soul ! LOVE 

The Future is Universal

25/07/2024

As said already before I'm going to gradually disassociate myself from the pure metal scene and certain scenes in order to merge the genres! Filmscore, Prog, Rock, metal, Rap/Hip Hop/Rnb, Pop, Variety, Jazz, World/New Age, Electro, Dark/New Wave Etc... Etc... And get away from sectarianism, sickly communitarianism and ingratitude! The metal scene now is gangrened by Some nazis, idiots, Snakes in disguise, People with a mental age worthy of kindergarten (close to 5 years of mental Age/Soul)! Reach Higher worlwide Levels like some Artists of the past and like some actual one (modern , futuristic and Avant Garde = New Codes)! Towards EVOLUTION, not Regression or Stagnation ! Some need to evolve in their heads and innovate ! Instead of proposing the same crap over and over again and justifying it to the masses, the sharks of farce and the brainless sheep! It s because of them that the world going round in circle again and again and that we hear always the same thing in repeat! They are locked into their ideals and want to impose them on others ! STOP !!! Break the codes ! We are STRONG Alone and with the good ones not Weak ! Be ready for the new EVOLUTION ! Light & Darkness united against the scumbags of this Earth ! Take care ! The Alien

New International Label Creation

25/07/2024

As said already before... I will certainly create a new international Label too for the transcendent (and Epic) Bands/Artists around us in every countries/continents (every kind of music and all the colors) = UNION ! Create a different VISION that the closed minded/rigid/sectarian sharks of farce/Jokers of vice wanted to impose on us and those who mislead us from great values, emotional intelligence, soul beauty and others ! But will sign with major ones already and we will see (with the label or not)! Create a new Society, a Better and beautiful world full of LOVE (not shit as some and counter/catch all these guys) !!! TRUE ART and PASSION (not a product for money or pleasure only) ! Look at their stupid faces and their poisoned words behind fake smile and appearances, look at their long teeths (Idiots with some skills like some politicians and obscure elites) ! Will restore the beauty in this upside down world and FUCK ALL THESE JOKERS/GUYS/WHORES , DIRTY PEOPLE , MYTHOMANIACS and UGLINESS (some networks like that apparently ahahah)! If they don't go to prison or an asylum (Invert All) ! I know some of them because I have worked with some of them in the past (They have mediocre minds, are sell out, weak, think only of their images and out of reality about our world) ! The world need that now with all the stupid wars around ! The sheeps will not be the same because they will evolve to something more smart, clever and they will become phoEnix's! My/our VISION is not theirs ! They will not block us ! We don't mix with the mud and their toxic egos! Millions of people are more clever than that ! We are millions miles away from their bullshit! But They're not intelligent enough to understand because they're locked up in their own comfort zone! They protect the society foundations like brainless rats! Time to put things back in order and re-establish communication in this upside down society! You know, the masses are so stupid in general ! The REALITY/FUTURE is here (only with the good ones/souls) ! + Humanitarian work all around the world with them ! An Isle of Love (Paradise) away from sectarian and conditioned behaviors

Shock and Sultry Interview

12/07/2024

Interview with Max Enix | Rocked ! By Jake Kussmaul ! https://www.facebook.com/RockedNet and Youtube ! Friday Jul 12, 2024 ! I Will publish the link some days after ! This interview is going to be a sultry one (2Hours), and I'm going to say everything I think about the society we are living in, humanity & some people/dogs who cover each others (BIG kick in the ant hill & All liars around = ALL targeted = without naming them directly/publicly but will explain ALL stories & the TRUTH) ! If they feel targeted that's their problem and it'll will mean a lot = Dangerous/mad me ? Of course ! Some dogs will be on the spotlight don t worry ! ALL these mythomaniacs without exception will be fucked one by one ! And your stupid human trivia too! Autobiographic question too where I will explain all I have endured in my life ! They will ALL (Alliances/Networks) falls into a huge hole full of shit and cliffs and it s only a beginning believe me (because JUSTICE all its forms and the TRUTH Always win in the end sooner or later and will put huge means for that)! Nothing to reproach myself (I will say everything when I'm right or wrong) ! All these Alliances and serpents in disguise behind fake or kind appearances (abuse of trust/kindness), fake words, traps, unhealthy games Etc... will be destroyed ! The circle is about to closing in on them) ! And we will talk about Far From Home & my upcoming projects! Nothing to hide ! I will use massively the media machine again (like in the precedent years) ! An other one programmed First week of September for Savage ladies of metal (Fran Svgladies) and lots of others to come

*AND Always remember ! Some people change strategies to have people they have annoyed in their pockets again with sugar words (solve the problem innocently and cover their tracks with some big lies on it too) ! And after they use the new words or proofs against you to said that they have no problem but that the problem comes from you and that you are paranoid , Crazy or others (Target Inversion) ! That people love them and they have no problem by their side ! NEVER FORGET THAT !!! NEVER FORGET HISTORY and the crucified and genocided (all hidden behind fake or kind appearances) ! And you can see that in the actual wars and the new technologies and like Hitler (lovers of animals) in the past (dirty and vicious Souls) !!! They use/Abuse you and if you are not on their side again they do things to sideline you and put them in the spotlight and continue sneakily (by trying to recruit people with them) that will hate you (because they don't have the control on you anymore) !!! And sometimes said that they have no problem with you after joke/scam and worst! (False) promises to be able to control others and keep them! And then they say we're disgusting because they had opportunities for us and money to give us! They offer you only things for their own INTERESTS ! If not they hate you and tries to have people that hate you with them ! But money can't buy our dignity ! At any moments they can say the collaboration is over and we are fucked so we have to take the decisions first ! Especially when my artistic projects hardly involve any advertising (or those I have paid) and we have to get by on the side! They only want money and power for themselves, and they don't want to be outdone! And they tries to have good advices around to spread to people! The people involved in it hardly have any escapades any more because they track them down, and I feel sorry for them (especially some girls who work with them , very close and under control = so they said to them to said that and not that because if not threaths or a gun to the head = Mafia) ! They can do what they want but not the others bu their side ! Hence the need to get away from them as soon as possible! But I'm going to go further down the road! Welcome in our world ! Welcome REALITY of some humans beahaviors !!! You are fooled and manipulated so get out of the unhealthy circle if it's still time ! For those who understand ! The Divine sees all and some will Fall ! I will made a song called Sodomizing the snakes once again in the next Albums with a sultry & hard video clip ! WAKE UP and Save (y)our souls (sorting out) ! <3

Mix & Mastering

12/07/2024

As you probably know, David Castillo (Studio Grondahl and Fascination Street Studios = Katatonia, Opeth, Leprous, Dark Tranquility Etc...) mixed Far From Home brilliantly and Tony Lindgren mastered it just as well! For Beauty in Darkness and Ocean of Light (Autumn 2026) we're back with the same winning team! But I'll also be going to Sweden in Stockholm to record the vocals there next year! See you soon

The Circle End and Souls Deliverance

08/07/2024

Some CONSPIRACIES will be destroyed in the circle that imprisoned them & all their Devils with them! You will see! Just a matter of time! They will be confronted to forces they don't know! They didn't pass the most important test in the Universe chessboard: TIME! They remain ignorant & uneducated about the real issues of this world & the human condition! Their souls are already dead like their ignorance! They will continue to burn, burn & burn... in the flames of their stupidity! Only will remain LOVE and TRUTH in an APOCALYPTIC way! There's still time to get out of the circle imposed by some (Obscure) Elites that's trapping your ideals before it's too late!

I work only with great people with values and a great and broader VISION like mine ! Not shit and networks of fuckers and whores only ! I don't want to be lumped in with the worst unscrupulous/mythomaniacs people (jokers of vice) anymore like in the past !

FAR FROM HOME

06/07/2024

Far From Home the worldwide acclaimed first Max Enix double Album is already considered a classic! Thanks a lot! You can listen to it and buy it here: https://maxenix1.bandcamp.com/ and on all platforms! See the videos on Youtube here: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=max+enix+wormholedeath ! The aim is to release Albums/projects that will marks their time (since these ones) and everytime ! Not just other ones that drowns out the others like some sharks/snakes/mythomaniacs do (Albums that nobody knows = funny promotion = they lead them straight into the wall yes and for what ? To fool them & take the money and pleasure aside ahah = Different Vision of mine = See the inversion = You're finished with these people = All they do is take it off your back and joke on you = Mislead you ALL by diverse strategies/accounts Etc... Buy others = Traps to better abuse them, control them and the others around for their unhealthy interests , fake power and OWN pleasure Etc... = They dangle a carrot in front of your nose or up your arse to get you to move on, make false promises and then sully you = And so as not to be unmasked, they will point the finger at certain things about you and continue their horrible activities = Scams, rapes, etc... to lull the masses and accuse you of all the names! = Vicious = They've got you on their clutches = Make sure you get out before it's too late, even if they continue to hunt you down so that we love them to their place = They do ALL for that and play crazy games = They want you to adopt they way of life and trample on your freedom = But they continue to keep trying to prove themselves right when they are wrong =The biggest snakes go to an Asylum = Make sure they don't use you the way they used me and may still use me to catch people... So that they'll be won over to their cause! When they've got nothing to do with Far From Home and my artistic vision (which, incidentally, is the opposite of theirs = The only problem is that they use the stupidity of the masses to their own ends and manipulate them = They are Puppets for them and the naive ones are driven in their clutches = Politicians do that = The Art of manipulation behind skills or bloody and fake money/power = Like the nazis in the past or the colonialists and the slaves they have create! Remember: “The thing about smart people is that they seem like crazy people to dumb people.”) ! SO I AM the opposite of them all ! And one of The difference between them and me is very simple! I don't need to buy off others to get what I want! Things come naturally! But you know, some people are just cash cows and like some toxic milks ahahah ! How stupid they are Muuuuh ! Epic/radio compositions, original/Orchestral... it doesn't matter! Big announcements to come! Keep your VISION and Make true ART ! The future is here! The Alien

Max Enix / Far From Home / Review / MASTERPIECE

04/07/2024

Max Enix / Far From Home double Album Review (FR) ! Ahasverus https://www.ahasverus.fr/blog/max-enix-metal-opera-far-from-home-09-06-2023.html ! When Metal rhymes with Monumental! Thanks a lot !

English traduction : "Ambitious, titanic, pharaonic - these are just some of the words that come up in reviews of this double album. It's because we admire what it must have taken to bring this project to fruition, and we salute Max Enix's prowess in achieving an extraordinary result in a very short space of time.
We pay tribute first and foremost to his ambition and his ability to manage this mammoth project, because it takes a madman or an unconscious person to undertake such a project, and a genius to bring it to fruition in such a way.
Better than a metal opera, beyond the productions we are usually presented with under that banner, Max Enix has created here a veritable symphony, an extraordinary work that is as much progressive metal as it is classical music. Off-piste without losing its way, it incorporates unexpected hip-hop or extreme elements with which it blends very well. The overall result is truly impressive, achieved without a break or false note. "Far From Home" is a masterpiece in its own right, and stands out for several reasons: its scope, its cast and its production. It will be of interest to fans of progressive metal as well as film or symphonic music (some passages are deeply symphonic). Particularly dense, the work never wears out over the course of several listenings, and always has something in store for you. "

*Let the jealous talk my friends... There are not me/us ! We are FREE and We don't have the same VISION !

Nevermore: Enemies of Reality

03/07/2024

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKogwqaNUKQ
Nevermore ! Enemies of Reality ! We are Enemies of Reality ! Fuck the Real fools and the TRUE Mytho(Maniacs) my friends ! They want to destroy us (slyly, silently and innocently) ! Remember that ! There are Legions of Jealous/Bastards people like that (Snakes in disguise) who mislead you from the TRUTH 

Lyrics:
We are the nothing grating against the norm
We are the something that will not conform
No one understands what we've been given
We are the useless by-products of soulless meat
We are all gone we all sing the same tragedy
Open wide and eat the worms of the enemy
We are the enemies of reality, in a world that's unforgiving
Waiting to sanitize bastard tongues
To purify the ignorance that hides the sun
The less you understand the more you're driven
Packaged and processed the masses are force fed
The standards they judge us on swallow the rot we shed
Open wide and eat the worms of the enemy
We are the enemies of reality, in a world that's unforgiving
Breathing dust and decay while I'm sipping
Human trust and betrayal
Losing faith once again
Take my hand my friend, my foe, I am enemy
Open wide and eat the worms of the enemy
We are the enemies of reality, in a world that's unforgiving
Open wide, eat the words, become what you most fear

Max Enix / Far From Home / 9.7 out of 10

28/06/2024

Max Enix / Far From Home / 9.7 out of 10 ! Thanks a lot !
https://thedarkmelody.com/max-enix-far-from-home-album-review/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR26pb7e8JVAum0wHR6ppe1XeTOQQzjTisU--GsBy0NAgTJS80FS90Ezd7w_aem_iMwNoHTbCVlztVhYF0dPkA
By God, it is not possible for people to overlook such a well-crafted work! A work that, at least for me, is the best that I have been able to serve my ears in this year that is still ongoing.  My question is whether Max will be able to surpass what he has achieved with this rich monument to art , since the level of quality is something that surpasses all conventional limits on any scale.

The next ones "Beauty in Darkness" and "Ocean of Light" (autumn 2026) will go much further again on every areas ! And tour will be plan after etc... Lots of things are coming and big announcements but I take my time so that everything is fine ! No hurry ! All have to be the most professionnal possible everywhere ! The goal is to release masterpiece or classic Album, not simple Albums between all others (It would be too easy and that wouldn't get you very far) ! We're taking our time to attack ! The quick assault would destroy us... not good (We have to remain Aliens and strategists)! We have to pull out and attack at the right time! Sometimes we even have to cover our tracks to come back even stronger! So Hard and intelligent work Always !

27/06/2024

You can watch the various videos from Max Enix's Far From Home double album here: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Wormholedeath+Max+Enix Image here from The Broken Face video by Dronicon film ! Video against violence, bullying to women, children, some men around the world Etc...! Against feminicide, infanticide etc... One of the scourge of our time ! Beware of those who feel targeted (thousands of torturers/rapists that kills each years) ! They will block because unmasked so that they can accuse the others at their place (inversion = Vicious guys ;) Special guest Marcela Bovio and Michael Romeo (Symphony x) for 2 guitars solos Etc.. Link in comments !

*And just one point of clarification: Love in all its forms, under all its names, with one or many people (at the same time) and which is even sometimes practised in apocalyptic form or language, is not violence IF there is consent on both sides (sometimes even ART censored or uncensored) ! We are Free ! Take care !

Stay focused

25/06/2024

Stay focused on your work, on the positive things & on your qualities! The rest, parasites/jealous/bitter/mythomaniacs/jokers who want to stand in your way & want to block us, whoever they may be, you'll fuck them over! They're not you! Continue on your path & don't let anyone dictate your behaviour or make you look like something you're not! We know who we are & what we've been through better than them! Huge things are coming! See you soon

City of Mortals and Future Albums

23/06/2024

Max Enix / City of Mortals directed by Lucas Bastian can be viewed here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=unwNS_W3Z9w ! FYI / Max Enix Beauty in Darkness (2026) will be a dark, gothic album that will serve as an outlet for everything my soul has been through and seen! It's going to be a very violent criticism of society, with hard, raw lyrics! This album will showcase the horror of our world! I'll be playing a character in a very hard, violent and provocative video clip (lots of blood, guns, horrors...) with a censored version (long erotic passage) and an uncensored version (porn) protected by advanced parental control where I'll be playing myself with other girl(s) with a deep meaning behind it about today's society and violence (to see like a Stanley Kubrick movie for exemple)! Note that this scene will take place with a gun to the head or elsewhere, the butt of the gun in the ass, the money in her mouth or others (and that the person will love it and enjoy it, rolling spades together with the tongue)  = The aim is to show the unhealthy society we live in! A reminder of a period of my past where I have play porn movies to exorcise my demons too even if here it will be far more trash ! The hard and deep sodomy of the society! "Sodomizing the Snakes" will be the name of the song ! Nothing shocks in this society so I'm going to shock! But it will be only a detail in the 2 Albums because so much more to offer !

I'll be playing a character who gradually sinks into madness because of the world around us! This character will dissociate into several other characters that I'll play (in the sulphurous scene I'll play, for example, in a sort of transcendental dream, the completely mad Joker who will be hit by a mobster who's not joking and will continue in a different way, then Batman who will shoot the gun and save the woman before also taking her, etc.). And then the character continues down the path of insanity to the point of no return! Just the opposite of the bright and clear clip with a serene character who will live peacefully and love with unconditional love! Bruce Wayne and Batman as opposites (in one) and horror all around! 

 I will wear black clothes in a sort of Batman/Matrix way (front cover of the Album by the way in an obscure/deep way = surprise)! Silent Hill/Stranger Things/Alien atmosphere ! The songs themes will be the concentration camps and its nazis, the cancel culture, the fanaticism, the law of do or die, the slavery, the conditioning, the corruption of fools, the oppression, the media/masses control, the brainless sheeps who follows the worst idiots, the territories wars, the politicians, the rapes, Sequestration, the fake kindness and use of white pawn to better fool, the stupid sacrifices perpetrated by clowns, Bullshit and blackmail, Porn and its excesses, decadence, the Jokers, the hackers, the narcisstic perverts and their vicious behaviours (mythomania, disinformation, big lies, scams, traps and control over people), Abuse and thirst of power behind bloody statuts, Animals abandonment, the torture, the data/words manipulation and the networks of cowards, the suicide, the people left behind who suffer in silence, the ego of the self-centered who want to decide for us, the gratuitous violence and massacres, climate change and its storms, Sick people who don't know they're sick, Some Perverted doctors, mad psychiatrists/ /teachers/company directors, paedophilia in churches and those who cover their crimes (Vatican...), Schools in danger, with courses that don't teach them the real issues of life and emotional intelligence, the ravages of certain medicines on health prescribed on a large scale, the pharmaceutical industry and malfunctions, the deplorable economic system, the bullying, dirty killings for money, the frustration and bitterness of jealous people, the sectarian aberrations, the crucifixions of innocents, black magic and voodoo for murderous purposes, forced prostitution, The gangs of idiots, unhealthy competition, people who want to crush, divide and rule/conquer ! Etc... There will be on vocals An apocalyptic guest and another rap/hip hop (already present in Far From Home Etc...)! A mix of film music, progressive rock, black metal, rap/hip hop etc... ! Parental advisory ! Ocean of Light (2026), the other album, will be luminous and showcase the beauty of things! This time I'll be playing a calm, serene character in a bright video clip around the sea etc...! I will wear white/blue clothes (front cover of the Album by the way in a clear way aside the sea and horizon = surprise)! The themes/lyrics will be much clearer (Spirituality, Universe/Cosmos, Animals, Beauty of things, God/Satan/or others names (Union of people towards a goal) and the attached metaphor, natural medicine and medicine of the future = Gravitational waves as Einstein have predicts, black holes, Dimensions, string theory, other possible society, mondial concertation to have less inequalities, the prophets, pyramids and landscapes, The divine and its forces, LOVE <3 etc...)! Fusion of filmscore, progressive rock/metal, variety, electro, jazz, world, new age Etc... ! The 20-minute finale will be apocalyptic, transcendent and spectacular (fusion of the 2 Albums) that will be a battle between darkness & Light before Light&Darkness fusion all together against the bastards/executioners of our time ! Before a new world (nuclear) war , the end of humanity, a new souls Era and perspectives/paths ! 1h 20 each approximatively with 21 songs (some epic, some radio) ! Original and orchestral versions ! Terrific, emotional, powerful and very varied vocals and huge orchestrations Etc... A few guests ! Quite a programme! Completely in tune with our time ! An atomic Bomb ! I'll let you discover all that! Never seen/heard before ! Big tour will come after that (Asia, USA Etc...) with great visuals... ! The Albums/projects that will come after these ones (original, filmscore, collaborations...) will be filmic with different themes and in general much lighter (but it's depends) with a deep story but each time very very different from each others (Blade Runner, Halloween, Cartoon...) !

*Far From Home and Future Albums:
Max Enix: Composer (music), Songwriter, Singer, Art Director, Lyricist, Actor (Videos...) Etc...! 
Thomas Kubler: Orchestrator and Arrangements!
Musicians to be announced progressively !

Trashocore / Max Enix Review

18/06/2024

Max Enix / Far From Home Review 8.5/10 Trashocore (FR) ! Thanks a lot ! https://www.thrashocore.com/.../11907-max-enix-far-from... 

Excerpt (EN traduction): Something as ambitious as this, in France, is frankly something I've rarely (never?) seen! It's a near-flawless achievement, that's for sure. 
I'm much more seduced by the male voices, both in terms of the choice of tessitura and the way they're combined, positioned according to the variations in intensity, the desired climates, etc. It's impressive, once again, in the way it's done.
Not being a musicologist myself, it would be difficult for me to go into more detail about the technical characteristics of the various songs, but I can only say that the composer has not fallen into the trap of making music for musicians, and that he always strikes the right balance between technique and melody, the complexity of demanding music made accessible to as many people as possible. In other words, you can enjoy Far From Home whatever your level of expertise: neophyte, professional, novice, experienced artist or weekend guitarist. And that's really great, especially for a guy like me who doesn't listen to much of this musical genre.

Solid Masterpiece Far From Home Albums Original and Orchestral

03/06/2024

Rock Era Magazine from Egypt ! Max Enix / Far From Home Original and Orchestral Review (more than 5 Hours of music) ! Solid Masterpiece ! https://www.rockeramagazine.com/album-far-from-home-by-max-enix/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR01LUT3uWuyT09okmXd2VikWyJqRDIrMgn2Ucpoi4ld9GuTUm-96Sl-k3U_aem_ATpVYGL7D7CjMpgvIKFLkJdy1GskXGUzo9jchciufKhhlxSGlv-NJuKTtcqGRQtPoADvDmpdGl4h6q-APwJkO5FT Thanks a Lot !

"Highlighting the effort made by himself, Thomas Kubler (orchestrator), François Rousselot (Conductor), and the Budapest Symphony Orchestra, Max Enix released a bonus orchestral version of Far From Home. Removing the vocals, solos, and heavy instruments has shed light on Far From Home’s brilliant orchestrations and made me look at the songs from a whole new perspective. This version will make you realize how carefully the vocal melodies were written and how strong they were backed by the atmospheric orchestrations, creating the perfect smooth build-ups and guiding the songs’ dynamics turning soft sparkling melodies into roaring waves smoothly and without losing their flow. The power of vocal harmonies and chores shine brightly in the version, the threatening effect they have and how they can lift the song’s energy up is quite amazing. Those arrangements have their very own character, it is strong and fierce and sometimes paints a complete picture with breathtaking soundscapes, acting like a well-crafted movie score, showing musicianship and high attention to detail. They helped me connect with the songs on a deeper level emotionally, I believe I’ll be playing those for quite a while.

Far From Home with both versions is an extremely enjoyable ride, Max Enix took his time in polishing and perfecting every detail making every moment count, creating a solid masterpiece of an album that’ll get him and the listener on the same wavelength emotionally and musically. Looking forward to more from Max Enix. Cheers!"

***Note: Beware of all the liars (or worst mythomaniacs) around you who are covering up for their own interests because they want to get proposals in your place and crush/sideline you! They think you are stupid and corrupt you/others and play games with you/us ! The human nature/jungle ahah ! Be smarter than that ! We know who we are and we know what are our directions/destinations better than them !

WOM 9/10 Far From Home

01/06/2024

Max Enix : Far From Home 9/10 ! Watch the review here on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8wmAlLWgp4 World Of Metal TV / A real treasure for fan of progressive music where Max Enix shows his Enormous talent !

See an other one here: https://www.bluestownmusic.nl/review-max-enix-far-from-home/ Max's powerful and sensitive vocals along the double Album. Try to imagine a mix of Jeff Wayne's War Of The World, Hans Zimmer's film music, the prog rock of Dream Theater and the sound of Ayreon and you will get an idea of what to expect on this album. Far From Home by Max Enix is a very impressive concept album and an album that should easily find a place in the collection of every progmetal fan! The very beautifully designed textbook should also be mentioned.

If you want only professionnal stuff it's here on the Max Enix Fan Page: https://www.facebook.com/MaxEnixConstellia

Just to let you know... Like Gojira and others, I will mainly be exporting to America, Asia and the UK in the future for my various projects (Albums/Tours/Shows/Fests/Cinema...) Etc...! I'm less and less interested by Europe in terms of mentalities, even though there are some superb countries, some extraordinary people and awesome things to do! But as far as my ambitions and the avant-garde nature of my projects, that's how I see the Future... ! These continents are more evolved for these kind of projects ! Continents/countries where artists such as Michael Jackson, David Bowie, Freddie Mercury, Pink Floyd, Hans Zimmer, Devin Townsend and many others have proved their worth... Max Enix follows in the footsteps of these artists, but is rooted in our times and the evolution of our society (hence the fusion of genres)! Not stagnation or regression (you can see all around you) but EVOLUTION ! For the music industry it's approximatively the same even though I continue to work everywhere ! I will put the social networks on hold progressively too (there are legions of conditioned idiots/bastards out there who can say anything and everything or trying to block/corrupt/justify their crimes like rabid dogs = My opposite) ! Above all I need to be with open-minded people ! FUCK the rest ! I have my own VISION (not a narrow one) ! A VISION that is light years away from some who are not evolving in their heads ! I go Forward and will create The music (projects) of the future to partially change this upside down society and its unhealthy/vicious/distorted foundations/leaders who are driving everyone up the wall ! It's A challenge and that takes time but It starts now ! Far From Home ! Lots of things to come !

4.8/5 Max Enix / Far From Home

25/05/2024

Max Enix / Far From Home Review 4,8.5 out of 5 by Music Existence and Jake Kussmaul ! Overall, Far From Home succeeds in creating a profound, pertinent, and immersive experience. The album’s sound is balanced and clear, making each vignette to the concept – through all its demonstrable complexities – easy to follow along with. By way of its numerous and distinctive vocals and instrumentation, the album comes across as a bunch of friends supporting one another through a multilayered journey, and doesn’t cop out by choosing to pander through sheer virtuosity alone; it is truly a work of art.

You will requiere patience and multiple listens before the album reveals all of its secrets, but if you have the time to do so you will discover a record that is deeply affecting. Moving on the orchestral version of the Album. The rearranged versions of these songs sound like the greatest version of a Hans Zimmer or Howard Shore soundtrack from a film that you've never seen and they are richly rewarded in their own right. Sweeping and Epic. I would not be surprised if the composer was hired to produce the music for big Hollywood Blockbusters in the very near future.

Excerpt: The use of male and female vocals alone brings a lot to the table, and as far as the songs are concerned, they already offer a lot of variety with their suspense arcs and both tempo and heaviness changes.
The orchestral version is what it says, the songs were recorded in orchestral style and are reminiscent of the soundtrack of the Schwarzenegger film "Conan".
In conclusion, a varied work with many twists and intelligent compositions. The entire album is worth a listen.

?8.5/10 ! Mythofrock (Greek) : https://mythofrock.gr/max-enix-far-from-home-2023-wormholedeath/ That’s nothing short of an artistic recital! Live this instant classic now! This musical masterpiece promises an unparalleled sonic journey, boasting a fusion of progressive-symphonic-post rock/metal, film score and a myriad of diverse elements, including world/new age, hip hop, jazz and avant-garde influences, never heard before. “Far From Home” transcends musical boundaries, weaving a tapestry of epic, emotional and complex compositions. This double album is not a simple collection of ordinary tracks, but a conceptual music gem. “Far From Home” creates soundscapes beyond music and words, a universe that extends beyond the confines of traditional musical expression. I enjoyed great vocal performances, intricate arrangements, fantastic music themes, incredible solos etc. It stands as a beacon in the musical landscape, offering a unique and unforgettable experience. For sure, a must-listen for those who appreciate the limitless potential of musical expression, an over two hours and a half musical adventure, which will cast a spell on you.

?8.5/10 ! Trashocore (FR): https://www.thrashocore.com/chroniques/chronique/11907-max-enix-far-from-home-2023-chronique.html Something as ambitious as this, in France, is frankly something I've rarely (never?) seen! It's a near-flawless achievement, that's for sure.
I'm much more seduced by the male voices, both in terms of the choice of tessitura and the way they're combined, positioned according to the variations in intensity, the desired climates, etc. It's impressive, once again, in the way it's done.
Not being a musicologist myself, it would be difficult for me to go into more detail about the technical characteristics of the various songs, but I can only say that the composer has not fallen into the trap of making music for musicians, and that he always strikes the right balance between technique and melody, the complexity of demanding music made accessible to as many people as possible. In other words, you can enjoy Far From Home whatever your level of expertise: neophyte, professional, novice, experienced artist or weekend guitarist. And that's really great, especially for a guy like me who doesn't listen to much of this musical genre.

In addition to the vocals of Max Enix himself, who does a great job and is quiet varied, the female vocals are sung by Elise Wachbar and cut an equally good figure.

Max Enix's "Far From Home" is a magical musical journey, a musical adventure full of surprises. As a songwriter, composer and producer, Enix shows off his extraordinary talent by creating an ambitious double album that perfectly combines many different genres into a single body of work.
"Far From Home" is a work that transcends and breaks the boundaries between musical genres, presenting a work with a truly fresh sound and inspiring ideas that is definitely worth a listen.

?8/10 METAL HAMMER GREECE ! Passion is the beginning and the end of Far From Home. Passion for Art without limits, for unbridled creation and the elevation of man as a being and not as a consumer product. ?? Listen to it again and again and you will constantly discover something new.
"An extremely talented artist, one of those who doesn't just do calculations and measurements with the eyes on the number of sales, but dedicated himself soul and body to his Art. ?? Max Enix brings out his innermost soul, both musically and lyrically, in a way that you cannot resist and what he tells us is indicative of what it happens in his mind." ?

?8/10 ROCK HARD GREECE AWESOME! https://rockhard.gr/max-enix-far-from-home-wormholedeath/ "The overall result is a triumph for Max Enix, who succeeded in creating something remarkable, something that fans of progressive music, but also those who like their sounds adventurous and provocative, will appreciate above all. He who takes risks and dares wins in the end."

?7.8/10 by Music Connection Magazine (Uk)

?RockHard Italy AWESOME review by Emanuele Biani, DPRP (Holland) AWESOME Words, Rocknytt (Swe), Radio Erdorin (Fr), This is Rock (Es), PowerPlay Magazine / The genuine emotion Enix has for his music is clear to pick up in his vocals. I can't say I loved them , but there's no doubt he has talent. Enix should be proud of his achievement; this is a monumental project he's put together, and he should be applauded for the sheer effort it must have taken.

?Awesome Rockallica (Greece). https://rockallica.com/akoysame-to-almpoym-toy-galloy-max-enix-me-ti/ Far From Home is a project that take risks and wins. This is a double Album that Highlights Max Enix's ability as a composer and artist. It is a musical journey that transcends the boundaries of musical genres. Far From Home is one of those Albums that is worth listening to without a second thought..."

?Masterpiece/Awesome/Brillant by some listeners (world), advices and Many Others...

?Metal Alliance Mag / An ambition that exceeds the boundaries of the imaginable! The highest spheres of symphonic and European metal (Opeth, Ayreon, Therion...)! Max and Elise make a fine vocal duo. Max's multiple nuances and Elise's soft, charming timbre are a perfect match. Max's own performance on Beyond my Blood, where he embodies several characters through the nuances of his voice - and through his acting in the video clip - delivering a dialogue with himself full of expressiveness and emotion.
Emotion is the very essence of what Max Enix and co are trying to convey with Far From Home, and it's present at every moment, filled with passion and heart.
Listening to Far From Home, there's no doubt that it's an extraordinary album, in the first sense of the word, in terms of its ambitions, which go beyond boundaries rarely reached, and in terms of the musical journey it invites listeners to take part in. Just imagine what a feat it must have been at every level (logistical, financial, writing, musical arrangement...)!
As well as the practical aspects, it's also the more abstract ones that make Far From Home stand out from the crowd, because of the immensity of the heart and soul that went into it. Far From Home finds added strength in its ability to rediscover itself with each new listen, allowing it to improve like a fine wine.

?Lots of others to come...

Those who have listen to it put me (in General) in the Top Albums of 2023 !

Elle a quelque chose de magistral et s'impose en référence à plusieurs titres : son ampleur, sa durée, son casting, sa réalisation. Il fallait être fou pour mettre en chantier une oeuvre de la sorte, et génial pour la mener à bien de cette manière.

This musical masterpiece promises an unparalleled sonic journey, boasting a fusion of progressive-symphonic-post rock/metal, film score and a myriad of diverse elements, including world/new age, hip hop, jazz and avant-garde influences, never heard before. “Far From Home” transcends musical boundaries, weaving a tapestry of epic, emotional and complex compositions. This double album is not a simple collection of ordinary tracks, but a conceptual music gem. “Far From Home” creates soundscapes beyond music and words, a universe that extends beyond the confines of traditional musical expression. I enjoyed great vocal performances, intricate arrangements, fantastic music themes, incredible solos etc. It stands as a beacon in the musical landscape, offering a unique and unforgettable experience. For sure, a must-listen for those who appreciate the limitless potential of musical expression, an over two hours and a half musical adventure, which will cast a spell on you.

?8.5/10 ! Trashocore (FR): https://www.thrashocore.com/chroniques/chronique/11907-max-enix-far-from-home-2023-chronique.html Something as ambitious as this, in France, is frankly something I've rarely (never?) seen! It's a near-flawless achievement, that's for sure.
I'm much more seduced by the male voices, both in terms of the choice of tessitura and the way they're combined, positioned according to the variations in intensity, the desired climates, etc. It's impressive, once again, in the way it's done.
Not being a musicologist myself, it would be difficult for me to go into more detail about the technical characteristics of the various songs, but I can only say that the composer has not fallen into the trap of making music for musicians, and that he always strikes the right balance between technique and melody, the complexity of demanding music made accessible to as many people as possible. In other words, you can enjoy Far From Home whatever your level of expertise: neophyte, professional, novice, experienced artist or weekend guitarist. And that's really great, especially for a guy like me who doesn't listen to much of this musical genre.

Excerpt: Try to imagine a mix of Jeff Wayne's War Of The World, Hans Zimmer's film music, the prog rock of Dream Theater and the sound of Ayreon and you will get an idea of what to expect on this album. Max's powerful and sensitive vocals along the double Album. Far From Home by Max Enix is a very impressive concept album and an album that should easily find a place in the collection of every progmetal fan! The very beautifully designed textbook should also be mentioned.

?8/10 AWESOME Review ! SoundMagnet (De) ? "Densely packed Cineastic Progressive Metal with orchestral violence. In addition to the vocals of Max Enix himself, who does a great job and is quiet varied, the female vocals are sung by Elise Wachbar and cut an equally good figure. For fans of symphonic metal with cinematic means and a lot of mass and class, Max Enix has a musical feast in store.

Max Enix's "Far From Home" is a magical musical journey, a musical adventure full of surprises. As a songwriter, composer and producer, Enix shows off his extraordinary talent by creating an ambitious double album that perfectly combines many different genres into a single body of work.
"Far From Home" is a work that transcends and breaks the boundaries between musical genres, presenting a work with a truly fresh sound and inspiring ideas that is definitely worth a listen.

?8/10 METAL HAMMER GREECE ! Passion is the beginning and the end of Far From Home. Passion for Art without limits, for unbridled creation and the elevation of man as a being and not as a consumer product. ?? Listen to it again and again and you will constantly discover something new.
"An extremely talented artist, one of those who doesn't just do calculations and measurements with the eyes on the number of sales, but dedicated himself soul and body to his Art. ?? Max Enix brings out his innermost soul, both musically and lyrically, in a way that you cannot resist and what he tells us is indicative of what it happens in his mind." ?

?8/10 ROCK HARD GREECE AWESOME! https://rockhard.gr/max-enix-far-from-home-wormholedeath/ "The overall result is a triumph for Max Enix, who succeeded in creating something remarkable, something that fans of progressive music, but also those who like their sounds adventurous and provocative, will appreciate above all. He who takes risks and dares wins in the end."

?7.8/10 by Music Connection Magazine (Uk)

?RockHard Italy AWESOME review by Emanuele Biani, DPRP (Holland) AWESOME Words, Rocknytt (Swe), Radio Erdorin (Fr), This is Rock (Es), PowerPlay Magazine / The genuine emotion Enix has for his music is clear to pick up in his vocals. I can't say I loved them , but there's no doubt he has talent. Enix should be proud of his achievement; this is a monumental project he's put together, and he should be applauded for the sheer effort it must have taken.

?Awesome Rockallica (Greece). https://rockallica.com/akoysame-to-almpoym-toy-galloy-max-enix-me-ti/ Far From Home is a project that take risks and wins. This is a double Album that Highlights Max Enix's ability as a composer and artist. It is a musical journey that transcends the boundaries of musical genres. Far From Home is one of those Albums that is worth listening to without a second thought..."

?Masterpiece/Awesome/Brillant by some listeners (world), advices and Many Others...

?Metal Alliance Mag / An ambition that exceeds the boundaries of the imaginable! The highest spheres of symphonic and European metal (Opeth, Ayreon, Therion...)! Max and Elise make a fine vocal duo. Max's multiple nuances and Elise's soft, charming timbre are a perfect match. Max's own performance on Beyond my Blood, where he embodies several characters through the nuances of his voice - and through his acting in the video clip - delivering a dialogue with himself full of expressiveness and emotion.
Emotion is the very essence of what Max Enix and co are trying to convey with Far From Home, and it's present at every moment, filled with passion and heart.
Listening to Far From Home, there's no doubt that it's an extraordinary album, in the first sense of the word, in terms of its ambitions, which go beyond boundaries rarely reached, and in terms of the musical journey it invites listeners to take part in. Just imagine what a feat it must have been at every level (logistical, financial, writing, musical arrangement...)!
As well as the practical aspects, it's also the more abstract ones that make Far From Home stand out from the crowd, because of the immensity of the heart and soul that went into it. Far From Home finds added strength in its ability to rediscover itself with each new listen, allowing it to improve like a fine wine.

?Lots of others to come...

Those who have listen to it put me (in General) in the Top Albums of 2023 !

?Rowan G Tepper (Layered Reality Production USA) and Lily Wardzala ! Far From Home Best Album of the Year 2023 ! It's a rare three-way tie for Album of the Year between:
Max Enix's magnum opus, "Far From Home"

and
Katatonia's "Sky Void of Stars"
[It's no coincidence that all three feature at least one person who was on stage as part of Ayreon this September in Tilburg]

? Soul.and.Feelings Top 9 of the 2023 year ! Max Enix : Far From Home number 8

?Ahasverus / Top Albums 2023 ! Max Enix réalise ici une véritable symphonie, une oeuvre hors-normes qui tient aussi bien du métal progressif que de la musique classique. Elle a quelque chose de magistral et s'impose en référence à plusieurs titres : son ampleur, sa durée, son casting, sa réalisation. Il fallait être fou pour mettre en chantier une oeuvre de la sorte, et génial pour la mener à bien de cette manière.

Albert Einstein Quotes

12/05/2024

"I Believe in intuition and inspiration ! Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. Serves as a reminder that our ability to think creatively and see beyond the constraints of our current reality is an essential ingredient for human progress." 

"Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere."

Albert Einstein

Evolution or Regression/Stagnation you choose but I think it is time to see things differently ! To stop the world going round in circles and society destroying itself and human beings in the process! But you know... "Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe." 

Apocalyptic , Poetic and Beautiful Albums

06/05/2024

A lot of people have been asking me what the Beauty in Darkness and Ocean of Light Albums, which will be released in autumn 2026, will look like!

Max Enix: Beauty in Darkness (2026)! This album, lasting around 1 hour 20 minutes, will be a fusion of film music, progressive rock, black metal, hip hop and other genres... Huge orchestrations and lots more loud guitars! The most violent and most beautiful album of my young career! The lyrics on the album will be very harsh towards humanity and are subject to a parental warning! Apocalyptic and marvellous at the same time! It will represent the darkest side of humanity (concentration camps, extreme violence in our streets and since the beginning of this era, wars, torture, cyber-terrorism, sick corruption, fake news, the decline of humanity and the new generations in perdition, Politics and its mythomaniacs and arrogant sharks who set a bad example for the entire population, terrorist attacks around the world, Satan's Supos who are not who we think they are and who hide behind bloody statuses = Most of them are in key positions in the society to better fool people who follows like brainless sheeps ! , the Bloody cucifixions and fanaticism in every ways/senses , anti-humans and some extremists who are worse than humanity itself and are responsible for the destruction of our civilisation and are driving people straight into the wall and mediocrity! etc.... ), abuse of kindness for unhealthy interests, the law of do or die, Mass blindness, the destruction of Love by Haters , Idiots that follows the legions of idiots since the beginning of our Era Etc... ! All the horrors of humanity will be revealed in the lyrics, which will be poetic but also very direct and raw! Without pity, because some don't deserve it!

Max Enix: Ocean of Light (2026) will be a fusion of film music, progressive rock/metal, electro, variety and jazz, among other genres! Bright, sunny, poetic and magnificent! Like a return to lost values and a paradise regained! The beauty of things, spirituality, enlightenment, hope, freedom, the power of the divine, love, joy, melancholy, flora and fauna, justice, common sense, Union, the hope of another world and a new society! The duality of emotions! But the final, transcendent 20min song will be a blend of the 2 Albums (between light and darkness, between violence and calm, between 2 worlds and 2 opposing atmospheres) and a perfect end to it all! It'll be an apocalyptic finale, this time definitively ending humanity (I can't see how it could be otherwise in the years to come, given current events and intellectual regression and human stupidity) in pain and suffering, but also in the hope of renewal! The sleeping water that will put out the burning fire with the help of others elements! All that will remain is Love and the opening up to a new era on earth, but above all a spiritual era and a spiral of souls who may or may not move on to other cosmic spheres and dimensions ! An overture and a dialogue to others intelligences all around in the Universe/Cosmos and its hundreds of billions of galaxies, planets, suns , moons , languages and beyond all that (Lights, Colours, Paradises...) ! 1h20 approximately too!

For fans of Opeth, Devin Townsend, Hans Zimmer, Therion, Dream Theater, Arcturus, Pain of Salvation, David Bowie , Anathema, Katatonia , James Horner, Shining , Danny Elfman, Dream Theater , Pink Floyd, Vangelis , John Williams , Dodheimsgard, Steven Wilson Etc... But with a Universe on its own (Unique) !

I will do Very varied, emotional and powerful voices in the 2 Albums (based on the orchestrations this time and very poignant and powerful) and a few guests will do too = Some already present on the Far From Home Albums! Epic and radio-friendly songs like for the Future!

A REVOLUTION (even more so than Far From Home) like the album covers and videos, which will be unexpected and very personal, even intimate! 2 Visions coming together in one! A lesson for the ignorant and people who are too down-to-earth, too closed minded that will allow them to see others perspectives they don't know/realize (if they can) behind others Angles ! A far cry from the materialism and futilities that simple thinking/simple minds idolises (only) ! A blow on their limited faces/brains ! The telluric AND the Cosmic ! Not one or an other ! Avant Garde and Futuristic ! Original and orchestral versions once again! Beyond words! Never heard, never seen! Yeah like some others people I'm not like Everyone, I don't do things like everyone and I'm not here to please everyone! We are Unique, We are Free ! The body and the spirit are one, and the soul conveys all kinds of emotions that ordinary mortals can't always perceive! Restore Communication and stop manipulate words / stories / others to your advantage or the End is definitely near ! When we are wrong Ok ! When we are right Ok ! No need to hide behind fake appearances ! Awareness/Consciousness and understanding of the whole is there! Stay tuned 

*They'll hunt us down for telling the truth too, but that'll just show their boundless and infinite stupidity since so many decades ! If they feel targeted and guilty, they go crazy relentlessly and tries to preserve their fake images til the end ! Ridiculous but true ! Go forward my friends !

Help each others for just causes (not for your unhealthy interests only) while there's still time or it will be the End of humanity sooner or later ! It's never too late ! The new technologies are devastating and the wars for stupid interests ruthless ! Don't need to justify it any further ! The nonsense is infinite ! Some people don't deserve your/our sympathy and are the opposite of your/our visions (That's why they want to block you at any costs and diverse means = They want a world to their Evil images and want people that follows) ! No more time wasted on pointless explanations! The Obscure elites (impostors) have already manipulated you (tries to win by cheating/joking = They can't win any other way! They're too weak! but they will loose all in the end) enough for their power ! Lots of positive things are coming for those who can see the darkness and the light in the same time ! Find your way in all the humanity bullshit (your qualities, your faults and your mistakes), you are more clever than that and follow your right path, your own truth as opposed to those who execute in vain ! JUSTICE FOR THE INNOCENTS, the MARTYRS and the SCAPEGOATS ! PEACE AND FREEDOM ! LOVE ALWAYS WIN IN THE END ! NOBODY CONTROL US (only the worst Idiots do that and it's why the world is dying) ! Divide and conquer and proving they are right when they are wrong to better fooled the masses and dominate Etc... again and again AHAHAH What a Joke ! The worst idiots on Earth do that and they think they are more clever AHAHAH ! They are already dead for our intelligences and they are an insult to our common sense...

James Labrie and Dream Theater Support

It's always very cool to find a message from James Labrie (who was supposed to be guest on Far From Home but couldn't make it at the last minute like Arjen Lucassen between others) from Dream Theater in my inbox, along with some great words from the band about Far From Home! Nostalgia ! The email was received just before one of their concerts in Geneva in 2022! 

TOUR DE FORCE

Thanks Again Stéphane Aguilera ! Max Enix / Far From Home Double Album Review ! TOUR DE FORCE ! Big Bang Magazine (FR)/ For all the jealous people out there who were waiting for me to crash (or pretend the contrary sneakily) and are still waiting! Do all that and we'll talk again! Make ART, not the crap/shit you make other people eat!

*English traduction excerpt: Never before... A musical project brought together so many different forces, and Far From Home is nothing short of titanic.
The vocal duets are seductive, and Max Enix does magnificently well in the midst of these exceptional singers, where fury and lyricism battle it out.
Somewhere between Hans Zimmer and Devin Townsend. Far From Home reveals its highly cinematic potential.
Unique and exceptional character of Far From Home, a veritable river rock opera driven by the talent and ambition of a single man, who deserves to be saluted for his extraordinary tour de force. The self-sacrifice of an artist at the service of his work.

A worldwide collaboration of artists spreading love using music the strongest way to spread the biggest message the world needs right now. A masterpiece to own without hesitation ! Human beings are destroying this beautiful world we are living in. Music is the peace of mind and helps fly away from this madness. Added to an orchestra team, it elevate the usual albums you are used to listen to. Sometimes closed to a movie soundtrack, each track has its own life. You are embarked into a world of imagination spilling beauty and happiness expressing what the world is going through at the moment."

For the entire two hours and forty minutes, 'Far From Home' is a captivating and engaging slab of grandeur - definitely not an anthemic driving album!
'Far From Home' has something for every one, whether you're a fan of Dream Theater, Opeth, Nightwish, Katatonia, Pink Floyd, Freddie Mercury, or David Bowie. And as an added bonus, there's gonna be an "orchestral version" of the album released later this year! As if 'Far From Home' couldn't get any better - yes it will!
Overall, an extraordinary and elegant journey of atmospheric symphonic rock and metal, and so much more.

The orchestral version is what it says, the songs were recorded in orchestral style and are reminiscent of the soundtrack of the Schwarzenegger film "Conan".
In conclusion, a varied work with many twists and intelligent compositions. The entire album is worth a listen.

?8.5/10 ! Mythofrock (Greek) : https://mythofrock.gr/max-enix-far-from-home-2023-wormholedeath/ That’s nothing short of an artistic recital! Live this instant classic now! This musical masterpiece promises an unparalleled sonic journey, boasting a fusion of progressive-symphonic-post rock/metal, film score and a myriad of diverse elements, including world/new age, hip hop, jazz and avant-garde influences, never heard before. “Far From Home” transcends musical boundaries, weaving a tapestry of epic, emotional and complex compositions. This double album is not a simple collection of ordinary tracks, but a conceptual music gem. “Far From Home” creates soundscapes beyond music and words, a universe that extends beyond the confines of traditional musical expression. I enjoyed great vocal performances, intricate arrangements, fantastic music themes, incredible solos etc. It stands as a beacon in the musical landscape, offering a unique and unforgettable experience. For sure, a must-listen for those who appreciate the limitless potential of musical expression, an over two hours and a half musical adventure, which will cast a spell on you.

?8.5/10 ! Trashocore (FR): https://www.thrashocore.com/chroniques/chronique/11907-max-enix-far-from-home-2023-chronique.html Something as ambitious as this, in France, is frankly something I've rarely (never?) seen! It's a near-flawless achievement, that's for sure.
I'm much more seduced by the male voices, both in terms of the choice of tessitura and the way they're combined, positioned according to the variations in intensity, the desired climates, etc. It's impressive, once again, in the way it's done.
Not being a musicologist myself, it would be difficult for me to go into more detail about the technical characteristics of the various songs, but I can only say that the composer has not fallen into the trap of making music for musicians, and that he always strikes the right balance between technique and melody, the complexity of demanding music made accessible to as many people as possible. In other words, you can enjoy Far From Home whatever your level of expertise: neophyte, professional, novice, experienced artist or weekend guitarist. And that's really great, especially for a guy like me who doesn't listen to much of this musical genre.

? https://www.bluestownmusic.nl/review-max-enix-far-from-home/ Awesome Review (nl) ! Excerpt: Try to imagine a mix of Jeff Wayne's War Of The World, Hans Zimmer's film music, the prog rock of Dream Theater and the sound of Ayreon and you will get an idea of what to expect on this album. Max's powerful and sensitive vocals along the double Album. Far From Home by Max Enix is a very impressive concept album and an album that should easily find a place in the collection of every progmetal fan! The very beautifully designed textbook should also be mentioned.

?8/10 AWESOME Review ! SoundMagnet (De) ? "Densely packed Cineastic Progressive Metal with orchestral violence. In addition to the vocals of Max Enix himself, who does a great job and is quiet varied, the female vocals are sung by Elise Wachbar and cut an equally good figure. For fans of symphonic metal with cinematic means and a lot of mass and class, Max Enix has a musical feast in store.

Max Enix's "Far From Home" is a magical musical journey, a musical adventure full of surprises. As a songwriter, composer and producer, Enix shows off his extraordinary talent by creating an ambitious double album that perfectly combines many different genres into a single body of work.
"Far From Home" is a work that transcends and breaks the boundaries between musical genres, presenting a work with a truly fresh sound and inspiring ideas that is definitely worth a listen.

?8/10 METAL HAMMER GREECE ! Passion is the beginning and the end of Far From Home. Passion for Art without limits, for unbridled creation and the elevation of man as a being and not as a consumer product. ?? Listen to it again and again and you will constantly discover something new.
"An extremely talented artist, one of those who doesn't just do calculations and measurements with the eyes on the number of sales, but dedicated himself soul and body to his Art. ?? Max Enix brings out his innermost soul, both musically and lyrically, in a way that you cannot resist and what he tells us is indicative of what it happens in his mind." ?

?8/10 ROCK HARD GREECE AWESOME! https://rockhard.gr/max-enix-far-from-home-wormholedeath/ "The overall result is a triumph for Max Enix, who succeeded in creating something remarkable, something that fans of progressive music, but also those who like their sounds adventurous and provocative, will appreciate above all. He who takes risks and dares wins in the end."

?7.8/10 by Music Connection Magazine (Uk)

?RockHard Italy AWESOME review by Emanuele Biani, DPRP (Holland) AWESOME Words, Rocknytt (Swe), Radio Erdorin (Fr), This is Rock (Es), PowerPlay Magazine / The genuine emotion Enix has for his music is clear to pick up in his vocals. I can't say I loved them , but there's no doubt he has talent. Enix should be proud of his achievement; this is a monumental project he's put together, and he should be applauded for the sheer effort it must have taken.

?Awesome Rockallica (Greece). https://rockallica.com/akoysame-to-almpoym-toy-galloy-max-enix-me-ti/ Far From Home is a project that take risks and wins. This is a double Album that Highlights Max Enix's ability as a composer and artist. It is a musical journey that transcends the boundaries of musical genres. Far From Home is one of those Albums that is worth listening to without a second thought..."

?Masterpiece/Awesome/Brillant by some listeners (world), advices and Many Others...

?Metal Alliance Mag / An ambition that exceeds the boundaries of the imaginable! The highest spheres of symphonic and European metal (Opeth, Ayreon, Therion...)! Max and Elise make a fine vocal duo. Max's multiple nuances and Elise's soft, charming timbre are a perfect match. Max's own performance on Beyond my Blood, where he embodies several characters through the nuances of his voice - and through his acting in the video clip - delivering a dialogue with himself full of expressiveness and emotion.
Emotion is the very essence of what Max Enix and co are trying to convey with Far From Home, and it's present at every moment, filled with passion and heart.
Listening to Far From Home, there's no doubt that it's an extraordinary album, in the first sense of the word, in terms of its ambitions, which go beyond boundaries rarely reached, and in terms of the musical journey it invites listeners to take part in. Just imagine what a feat it must have been at every level (logistical, financial, writing, musical arrangement...)!
As well as the practical aspects, it's also the more abstract ones that make Far From Home stand out from the crowd, because of the immensity of the heart and soul that went into it. Far From Home finds added strength in its ability to rediscover itself with each new listen, allowing it to improve like a fine wine.

?Lots of others to come...

Those who have listen to it put me (in General) in the Top Albums of 2023 !

?Rowan G Tepper (Layered Reality Production USA) and Lily Wardzala ! Far From Home Best Album of the Year 2023 ! It's a rare three-way tie for Album of the Year between:
Max Enix's magnum opus, "Far From Home"
Temperance's "Hermitage: Daruma's Eyes Part II"
and
Katatonia's "Sky Void of Stars"
[It's no coincidence that all three feature at least one person who was on stage as part of Ayreon this September in Tilburg]

?Michael Prado Fernandez (The dark Melody 9.7/10 South America webzine) / "Such an amazing album ?? My favorite one in Progressive music from this year."

?Fab Borré (Nawak Posse FR) this morning with the top french artist ! I am Number 5 in front of Mass Hysteria but he said that there was not really specific ranking !

? Soul.and.Feelings Top 9 of the 2023 year ! Max Enix : Far From Home number 8

?Ahasverus / Top Albums 2023 ! Max Enix réalise ici une véritable symphonie, une oeuvre hors-normes qui tient aussi bien du métal progressif que de la musique classique. Elle a quelque chose de magistral et s'impose en référence à plusieurs titres : son ampleur, sa durée, son casting, sa réalisation. Il fallait être fou pour mettre en chantier une oeuvre de la sorte, et génial pour la mener à bien de cette manière.

Max Enix: Ocean of Light (2026) will be luminous , sunny, poetic and beautiful but the last song of 20min will be a mix of the 2 Albums (between light and darkness, between violence and calm) and a perfect ending to all this (The End of All and everyone ?) ! 1h20 approximatively too !

Music of the Future

12/04/2024

My music & musical universe are unique & incomparable! The same will apply to future festivals & concerts/tours/albums! Avant-garde & completely unexpected (voices, giant screen, smoke...)! Completely different from anything else you'll see! A marked difference from all the others! It's deliberate, because my music is a fusion of genres & doesn't fit into any one box! It will appeal to some and not to others! It's a bias & a unique vision! Big announcements coming soon! Music of the Future!

Thank You

10/04/2024

I'd like to thank everyone who has supported me since the start of my career! Thanks to you and a lot of hard work I've become a reference in the modern music world/industry (for those who know me)! And this is just the beginning! Developing as an artist takes time, and Rome wasn't built in 1 day! Big announcements to come in the near future (Festivals/Shows/Tours/Albums/collaborations/Cinema/Business Etc...) ! See you soon

Now and The Future

26/03/2024

Hello everyone,

I've finally taken the final decision to cancel the big festivals signed up for 2024/2025 (Pannonian Rock, Midalidare, Metal Fest, Ostrava, Master of rock, Master of rock winter, Rock castle, MetalHead, Metal days Etc...)! I think the idea of being alone on stage is a risky one at the moment and that the whole thing needs to be worked on very carefully! There's no point in launching yourself in front of a huge crowd straight away! It's better to get used to venues and gigs first! A few fests will be keep maybe ! I will let you know !

As a result, concerts and venues should be organised from next year onwards, and above all a major tour should be organised in 2026 in Asia, the USA and Europe for the release of the 2 albums Beauty in Darkness and Ocean of Light (2026)! Original and Orchestral Versions for more than 5 hours of music again ! Big promotion in sight! Stay tuned!

The set-up is good (lots of visuals on a giant screen, lights, effects etc...) but I'm a perfectionist and want everything to be as polished as possible! Everything will be professional (sound, images, visuals, stagecraft, vocals, etc.)! The vocals will be very emotional, powerful, varied and advanced in the 2 albums to come! Even more so than before ! Important for the best shows possible !

Mike St Jean, one of Devin Townsend's best friends who has performed many shows with him, will be on hand for visuals and lights, along with Johann Meyer, Gojira's sound engineer (depending on dates and availability)! Other surprises will be announced shortly!

Note that 2 vocals guests should be back on Beauty in Darkness: Niklas Kvarforth from Shining (Black Metal) and Michael Onetwenty (Hip Hop) ! Drums guest George Kollias (Nile) ! Black metal Guitars guests maybe or others (to see) ! Fusion of Filmscore, Black Metal, Hip Hop , Jazz Etc...) ! For the Ocean of Light album, a few guests will be announced (female and male)! I will be the principal singer and performer ! I'll let you know more in the near future! But never one genre at a time (always Fusion) !

Max Enix : Music, songwriter, composer, singer, art director, lyricist, actor etc...
Thomas Kubler: Orchestrator and arrangements, piano
Xavier Boscher: Guitars
Jean Jacques Moréac (Misanthrope): Bass
Leo Margarit (Pain of Salvation): Drums

David Castillo (Studio Grondahl): Mix
Tony Lindgren (Fascination Street Studios): Mastering
Vocals Recording Studio : To see
Milo Lee: Photos

Videos director : Bloudengaztia Wolfgang , Lucas Bastian and Mathieu Buccholzer , DMPX Web again normally ! To confirm !

Lots of work with WormHoleDeath, Epictronic and Carlo Bellotti Publishing in the coming months (signing artists and much more in the music industry)! I can't be everywhere at once and there are priorities! Especially with the parallel pace of life, my moving to Italy very soon, my private life, sport, constant singing training, writing, preparing future videos, ideas for future Albums (Illustrations...), new interviews and reviews to come, projects and collaborations that are taking shape (singing, composing, cinema Etc Etc...)! + Private Things to sort out !

I'll keep you posted and thank you for your support! All the good things take time ! And don't forget to listen the Far From Home Albums here : https://maxenix1.bandcamp.com/ and the Constellia Album here: https://constellia.bandcamp.com/album/secret-garden

Always futuristic and Avant garde !

See you soon

Fireworks Magazine

02/03/2024

Far From Home / Max Enix: Music, Vocals, Art Director, Lyricist Etc... and Thomas Kubler: Orchestrator/additional arrangements  like for the Future Albums ! Musicians (or guests) aside will (of course) adapt their parts to the compositions/orchestrations/Vocals already created (depending on what I wish in general) !

Fireworks Magazine (The Biggest UK Mag) / Far From Home Review excerpt (Original and Orchestral) : "The whole venture be extremely rewarding ! You will requiere patience and multiple listens before the album reveals all of its secrets, but if you have the time to do so you will discover a record that is deeply affecting. Moving on the orchestral version of the Album. The rearranged versions of these songs sound like the greatest version of a Hans Zimmer or Howard Shore soundtrack from a film that you've never seen and they are richly rewarded in their own right. Sweeping and Epic. I would not be surprised if the composer was hired to produce the music for big Hollywood Blockbusters in the very near future. If there was a remake of "Lawrence of Arabia" , Enix would be the man I'd ask to do the music." 

The next Albums Beauty in Darkness and Ocean of Light (Original and Orchestral Versions with exclusive sounds FX = Approximatively 1h20 Each = 5hours whole) will be for fans of Opeth, Hans Zimmer, Shining, Devin Townsend, Danny Elfman, Pain of Salvation, Marillion, David Bowie, Dream Theater, Dodheimsgard, Vangelis, Rhapsody (first period), Howard Shore, Katatonia , Arcturus and Far From Home of course ! 

***"They wanna see you do good but never better than them. Remember that." That's why some people push you aside, want to control media/people around (kiss people's asses for that) and want to dominate some areas = push themselves forward (to get opportunities instead of you) ! They don't want that you overshadow them ! The law of the jungle ! I don't work like that (and see precedent post with Hans Zimmer Self Taught without formal educations and methodology) Etc... 

Hans Zimmer Work Methodology

01/03/2024

*EN: AGAIN (for some Elites, jealous ones, some assholes I have worked with and malicious tongues who have not his talent)! Hans Zimmer Self-taught = Only 3hours of piano lessons in his own life (it's why his music is Unique and better than 90% of all the others who sounds the same) ! Almost the same work methodology as me (composer, singer, Art director, Lyricist ETC...) ! EMOTION Before All ;) https://nofilmschool.com/2018/07/watch-hans-zimmer-scoring-gladiator-interstellar?fbclid=IwAR1JHdWaqFzi6EW5s_pF1ALR4ZWwYM2yw2Uirs1tQkxGpgOjJbVCqrAbYFQ

There will always be people who try to make a mess of things and destroy other people's projects for their interests and domination, that's just the way it is! We have to move forward! Let them mind their own business ! FUCK !!! And let's not forget that most singers are just performers !

Hans Zimmer Methodology: "Hans Zimmer's career has been marked by an unorthodox approach to music and film scoring and part of this lies, he thinks, in his lack of formal training. "I have no technique and I have no formal education, so the only thing I know how to write about is something that's inside of me." : Full Article: https://nofilmschool.com/2018/07/watch-hans-zimmer-scoring-gladiator-interstellar?fbclid=IwAR1CSkwpAdGDuoEn8STT5cLAREjpoPKSQ1Vnh-2iLQJKtUXMeWuAm9NlQ9A

*** Forum/Hans Zimmer Way of working (some elitist people are boycotting him because of that and that's very sad because you have to respect each other's working methodologies and the talent that goes with it):

"I have to disagree with Christopher Smith. This is what I often hear at my music college too. I don’t like that attitude of an elite who don’t credit non-formal trained musicians or composers. Thats just rubbish and kind of jealous.

I’m not working for Hans but I know one who has and want to defend him because he deserves what he accomplished.

First, Hans writes a suite for every film at the beginning and does it totally on his own. This is then rehearsed together with the director to show Hans’ ideas about the mood of the film and will serve as a basic tune toolbox later on. It contains basically the theme of the score. All harmonies, sounds and arrangements of the suite will be “re-used” as a template for filler and underlying music. These music parts are usually composed by his co-composers and this has little to do with his ability as a composer but to deliver an incredibly big production in a very short time and to free him from “boring” tasks to be able to concentrate on the major parts of the score. - Hans never got fired from a scoring gig - the deadline thing is one reason why. Btw. other composers also have assistants who work on their scores. Hans has just more…He also works incredible hours and literally lives the film during his scoring work. He is a master at perceiving a story and capturing the feel and atmosphere of a film. This is actually THE ability a film composer must have. He is a genius in that regard.

Hans on not reading music… He can read music of course but is maybe just not as fast as a trained musician. Also sight reading might not be his strength, he reads MIDI rolls like no one else. The jealous composer can say what he wants. This is a skill and its one most classical trained composers most likely do not have. Deal with it.

Hans’ music is powered by simplicity with innovative sound design which serves the picture unbelievable good. And that is the job! Yes, his scores are no Williams tunes. But there is already a Williams. There is also a Newman and an Elfmann - you get the picture….Hans is just another kind of signature. He manages to get gigs and the movies he scored become usually hits. That speaks for him too.

And no composer orchestrates the whole score by themselves. Even John Williams writes his scores just on the piano and pass the raw piano score to his orchestrator. To claim Hans is not a real composer because he cannot orchestrate on paper is bollocks. In fact, he started the whole MIDI orchestration thing. In other words, he already orchestrates while writing the score. Just not on paper. Ok, maybe he makes some voice leading mistakes when things get complex but the orchestrater will rule that out later on - thats his job. But again, even the likes of Williams has got own orchestrators. So come on, give him what he deserves."

Sorting Souls

29/02/2024

They think they control people, but they're controlled by their own stupidity and Ignorance (misplaced intelligence based on futilities and their limited conditions = See the Test) ! No more, no less ! If they base their lives on control, they've understood nothing about existence! The DIVINE sees all and some will Fall ! You will see it's just a matter of Time ! Their souls are already dead ! They are responsible for the end of this Era and have blood on their hands! Of course these people won't understand, because they're only interested in materialism and Money (they can't see any further than the end of their noses and their/our bodies)! They crucify the spirit and the soul that goes with and will be damned in return! Remember the history, remember their arrogance and malice ! They do it again (they have not changed) ! I am/We are on the right path = The TRUTH Path # The executioners' path ! FIGHT to our last Breath ! Don't forget what humans can do ! They'll be up against forces they don't know soon (the sorting souls) ! Their madness stops there! And they can laugh all they want! They're already doomed! The FUTURE is Here (APOCALYPSE) and some will cry like children (if they still can) ! The conspiracies will explode with everyone inside! A Gigantic Army for True Justice and Goodness is here (Billions of souls against some thousands) ! The roots of all Evil will be destroyed ! The universe and its forces are far more powerful than mere earthlings! The trick of true evil and brainless jokers is to keep you away from good to continue its reign ! The sacrifice was not made in vain! It made it possible to separate the good souls from the bad who instrumentalise all behind fake apparences ! And mediocre minds will drift away because they won't seek to understand and will turn to the evil and sectarian ones (and their henchmen/gurus) ! If you step into the light, they'll say you've got ego! If you stay in the shadows, they won't say anything! They lost out to the tests of time (they remained blind) and led corruptible souls to their downfall (the Devil's ruse who will tempt to justify himself and tempt others behind different strategies, in vain Finally) ! WAKE UP ! The Elements win (remember creation and beyond, fields of consciousness, black holes, dark matter/energies, memory of water and all its forms = steam... )  ! CHECKMATE ! 

*The devil aside Jesus Christ doesn't look like a demon with horns ! It's a representation! Evil is the thirst/abuse of power, abusive interests, fanaticism, the I don't care attitudes, sectarianism, oppression, The Snakes/Sharks/Judas in disguise... ! FIGHT

*The Spirit and Beyond...

*Not Black or White ! Not Earth or Universe ! Not Day or Night ! Not Angel or Demon ! Not God or Devil (or others names) ! Not Humans or Aliens ! Not symbols of Peace or Hate ! Not Intelligence or Emotional intelligence ! Not Earth paths or Spiritual paths ! Not Body or the Spirit or the Soul ! But Black AND White = ALL TOGETHER = UNIVERSAL EQUILIBRIUM 

Duality

26/02/2024

Beauty in Darkness Album (2026) = 78min will represent horror on Earth (Hell) made by humans and torturers with fascinating music (a mix of film music, black metal and hip hop Etc...)! A composition will be made about concentration camps (with an anime video clip)! Parental advisory lyrics (Very Harsh and crude words against some people and society) !!! Ocean of Light Album (2026) = 78min will represent beauty on Earth and Divine = Paradise (mix of film music, variety, rock, jazz etc...) before a finale (20min composition) where light and darkness will battle before coming together against some human hearts and executioners since the beginning of our Era for an APOCALYPTIC and transcendent finale! I've outdone myself (Music, Vocals and All) like Thomas Kubler for the orchestrations Etc... ! Epic and radio songs with a few Awesome guests ! More instrumental passages ! Vocals = 10 times more variation in my voice than in Far From Home (who already has quite a few) given that I'll be practically the only one singing with a handful of guests! You'll see my whole range of possibilities (Work Hard)! I'll try to pay more attention to the pronunciation too! Let's not forget that I was originally supposed to be the only singer on Far From Home and that I opted for guests who covered all the vocal lines I sang and created (who then interpreted them in their own way) in addition of mine! You'll find this duality everywhere (music videos, illustrations, album covers (unexpected), concert atmospheres, etc...). Never heard/seen before ! Above and beyond the norm ! The liberation/sorting of the souls and Innocents Finally = FREEDOM

New REVIEW

21/02/2024

Max Enix / Far From Home / New Review / Didn't see this one before ;) Thanks a Lot Odayrox ! Highly Recommended !  https://0dayrox2.org/2023/06/max-enix-far-from-home-2023.html 

Extract: ”Far From Home” is an extremely enjoyable ride, Max Enix took his time in polishing and perfecting every detail making every moment count, creating a monster of an album that’ll get him and the listener on the same wavelength emotionally and musically. It’s a long piece of work to dissect in one listen, but well worth of your time as it’s very enjoyable.

Video Clips

21/02/2024

Max Enix Beyond my Blood video clip photo ! They don't understand you and will pass you off as "Crazy or Unconscious" because that's the only way they can get rid of their inconsistencies! CONSCIOUSNESS is there! You're "crazy" to all those who can't manipulate you! I'm not here to base myself on trivia (childish things) and listen others, but to build my own legend!

Vocals

12/02/2024

Video on Facebook and Instagram ! Working on the vocals (based on the orchestrations this time) at home for the Future Albums to be released in 2026, before the rhythms, Guitars Etc...  I need total freedom in everything I do (to have the best result possible) ! No real lyrics here (the real one will be very deep) but it'll give you an idea of the atmosphere in Beauty in darkness, with the narration, the instrumentals, the vocals...! It's only a beginning and draft here of course (no dubbings here...) ! Good Night ! 

Break the Codes

04/02/2024

Work Hard ! Create your own rules ! Follow your own path ! You're not other people's puppets/slaves ! The Future is Here ! FREEDOM !

New EPIC Interview

04/02/2024

New Epic and very actual Interview here ! Thanks a Lot Dimitris Zacharopoulos who rated Far From Home as an instant classic in his review! https://mythofrock.gr/max-enix-its-a-long-way-from-home/ I would like to add that I work actually on the vocals at home for the 2 New Albums to come in 2026 and these vocal lines will explode everything I have done in term of Emotions, variations and power like the music ! Can't wait to share that with you !

Extract: "The last months the name Max Enix has been been heard many times. The talented artist and his debut album, “Far From Home”, are in the spotlight of the worldwide heavy metal community, because Max managed to release something spectacular, a music miracle, which starts from the realms of progressive/symphonic metal and moves towards strange soundscapes that mesmerize the listener. It is usually said that Max Enix’s music is a wonderful kind of film-score metal!"

Nilou Albums

02/02/2024

Nilou the Dog is soaking wet and looks at me strangely ! It's raining hard here! He's brought back the beast... The Max Enix "Far From Home" double Album (internationally acclaimed)! And the previous one under Constellia (more simple) called Secret Garden ! New Albums "Beauty in Darkness" and "Ocean of Light" (2026) in the pipeline and big news for big festivals/shows to come (names of the well-renowned lights and sound technicians that will come with me for the epic and impressive solo concerts/Tours soon Etc...) ! I will sing all my parts and some of the guests parts too (with strong visuals/lightings/sound...) ! It will be Powerful and emotional with lots of modulations ! The best possible formula finally ! Real shows, with lots of surprises in store! All will be filmed ! Transcendent and professional! Different from what's out there, like albums (with a Universe on its own) ! Never seen/heard before like the Future stuff/projects ! Some people didn't believe in Far From Home and were dealt a monumental blow in their face! Some people didn't believe in concerts and they're going to be taught a huge lesson (Vocals, Shows Etc...)! Some people didn't believe in my future projects and they're going to be hit with an atomic bomb at home! 

Haters

24/01/2024

https://www.nrj.fr/artistes/taylor-swift/actus/taylor-swift-un-break-apres-sa-tournee-331731

Taylor Swift: «Je suis aux infos tous les jours pour plein de raisons. Et parfois, si vous laissez vos angoisses prendre le dessus, on peut avoir l’impression que tout le monde attend que vous vous plantiez, et qu’après vous soyez finie», ajoute-t-elle. «Je pense que je dois prendre un peu de congé. Et les gens ont peut-être aussi besoin de moins me voir. Je vais passer du temps avec mes amis. Ecrire de nouveaux morceaux, ou peut-être pas. Je ne sais pas», a-t-elle confié au magazine. Ils la poussent à faire un break !

La nature humaine ! Ils veulent détruire les gens qui ont du succès, gagnent de l'argent ou veulent casser les codes (changement) depuis le début de notre ère ! Trop d'exemples ! Encore pire quand ils sont au sommet (ils mentent, inventent des histoires, des rumeurs...) ! Il faut rester fort face à tous ces gens envieux et jaloux qui dézinguent à tout va et qui veulent garder le monopole !

Même entre personnes célébres c'est le bordel (ils veulent dominer et garder le monopole du succès) = Regardez le cas d'Amber Heard manipulatrice hors pair (avec de fausses images) contre Johnny Depp (qui a gagné fort heureusement) ! La nature humaine !

Le prochain Album Beauty in Darkness sera apocalyptique sur la nature humaine et les atrocités qu'elle a commise (sans compromis et avec des paroles très dures)! Ocean of Light sera lumineux et montrera les merveilleux coté de celle ci aussi (l'Amour, la compassion, la bonté...) mais la dernière chanson épique (20min) qui sera transcendente remettra les pendules à l'heure avec toutes ces bandes de chiens qu'incarne la race humaine !

"They wanna see you do good, but never better than them. Remember that."

Festivals, Shows, Concerts, Tours...

23/01/2024

Hello everyone, finally I may be keeping some of the big festivals I have signed but in a different configuration (more profitable for me because for a solo project all the musicians I have together are too expensive = or to see with a production company in the future )! I'll be alone on stage singing (Powerful/emotional and transcendent vocals) with an excellent sound engineer (sequences behind), lighting engineer and some superb visuals in the background! All will be professionnal ! It can be tricky (risk taking) in this configuration when you're playing after established bands with famous musicians (and requires a good dose of courage), but I'll see and it will be wonderful too ! I'll keep you posted if it's possible!

In any case, I'll probably be organising a Tour in 2025 in Europe or the UK in this configuration (with futuristic elements projected) in various venues where Far From Home will be played and sung in its entirety! And another tour in 2026/2027 in Asia, US or elsewhere with this configuration (normally) when the 2 new albums Beauty in Darkness and Ocean of Light will be released! By the way, I've got 3 or 4 exceptional vocals guests in store who'll add a masterful soul to these 2 albums (Some of them present on the Far From Home Albums) even though I'll be singing 80% of the vocal parts this time ! FUSION with apocalyptic ones on Beauty in Darkness and Softer ones on Ocean of Light !

Safety is going to have to be top notch too, believe me, with all those crazies around! And all liars (different areas) who wanted to put me aside or blocked me will be destroyed by the TRUTH in everything I do ! Reality will give them a lesson AGAIN !

I'll keep you posted for All ! Lots of announcements in the coming months ! See you soon!

The Future is Here !

New Max Enix Review 8.5/10 Trashocore

20/01/2024

8.5/10 / New Max Enix Far From Home Review / Thanks a Lot Trashocore (FR) for the beautiful words ! https://www.thrashocore.com/chroniques/chronique/11907-max-enix-far-from-home-2023-chronique.html

Some words here (English Translation): Something as ambitious as this, in France, is frankly something I've rarely (never?) seen! It's a near-flawless achievement, that's for sure.

I'm much more seduced by the male voices, both in terms of the choice of tessitura and the way they're combined, positioned according to the variations in intensity, the desired climates, etc. It's impressive, once again, in the way it's done.

Not being a musicologist myself, it would be difficult for me to go into more detail about the technical characteristics of the various songs, but I can only say that the composer has not fallen into the trap of making music for musicians, and that he always strikes the right balance between technique and melody, the complexity of demanding music made accessible to as many people as possible. In other words, you can enjoy Far From Home whatever your level of expertise: neophyte, professional, novice, experienced artist or weekend guitarist. And that's really great, especially for a guy like me who doesn't listen to much of this musical genre.

New Max Enix Far From Home Review 8.5/10 Mythofrock

20/01/2024

And an other review 8.5/10 ! Max Enix Far From Home from Mythofrock ! Thanks a lot Dimitris Zacharopoulos for your wonderful words ! https://mythofrock.gr/max-enix-far-from-home-2023-wormholedeath/

Some words: That’s nothing short of an artistic recital! Live this instant classic now! This musical masterpiece promises an unparalleled sonic journey, boasting a fusion of progressive-symphonic-post rock/metal, film score and a myriad of diverse elements, including world/new age, hip hop, jazz and avant-garde influences, never heard before. “Far From Home” transcends musical boundaries, weaving a tapestry of epic, emotional and complex compositions. This double album is not a simple collection of ordinary tracks, but a conceptual music gem. “Far From Home” creates soundscapes beyond music and words, a universe that extends beyond the confines of traditional musical expression. I enjoyed great vocal performances, intricate arrangements, fantastic music themes, incredible solos etc. It stands as a beacon in the musical landscape, offering a unique and unforgettable experience. For sure, a must-listen for those who appreciate the limitless potential of musical expression, an over two hours and a half musical adventure, which will cast a spell on you.

Future Priorities

16/01/2024

Hello everyone,

I've made a personal, difficult but necessary decision!

I'm going to devote myself mainly to studio albums, film music, collaborations (Singing, Music, Cinema...), to Carlo Bellotti Publishing (WormHoleDeath/Epictronic etc...) as Head of A&R (signing bands/artists) and much greater responsibilities in the future, to my family, to Valou my girlfriend... ! I need to structure things and focus on the essentials!

So I'm going to cancel all the 10 big festivals I've already signed up for 2024(Metal Fest, Rock Castle, Pannonian Rock Fest, Master of rock winter ETC...) and 2025 (Master of rock, Ostrava, Prague Rocks, metalHead, MetalDays and Sonic Park) for personal and financial reasons too, because yes, it costs too much money when you have a one man project = Musicians repetitions/Travels/Accomodations/fees etc... (and too much pressure)! The surrounding environment is unhealthy too! And it's better for my mental health too, with all these crazies around (you end up going mad especially when you are too nice = they take advantage of your kindness) ! I'm staying away from anything toxic (people) and from some childishness games ! Some humans are just too stupid and I have no time to lose with them ! I have an honour and I don't want to sacrifice it !

Thanks for the great team who was ready to come and play/sing with me (Paula Teles on Vocals, Patrice Guers on Bass, Olivier Lapauze on Guitars, Pierre-Emmanuel Desfray on Drums Etc...) ! See you later !

What's more, I want to gradually merge musical and artistic genres (fusion) and I don't want to be attached to any particular scene! There'll probably be concerts in the future when the 2 new albums come out in 2026, but in different configurations (you'll find me with a reduced line-up, magnificent images, superb lighting, excellent sound, Transcendent vocals etc.) ! All will be professional as always ! Good things take time!

For future albums and projects I'll be calling on very few people around me (the best ones and the most involved = Thomas Kubler for orchestrations, Hugo Williame for programmations , Xavier Boscher for guitars and bass even if all can be programmed too with the indications I give and a very few guest), and I promise you that the result will be just as Dantesque and even more so! The more personal the projects are, the more successful they are in my opinion! Remember that most artists are just performers! I've chosen to be a songwriter, composer, singer, performer, lyricist, art director, actor and more (Music industry responsibilities for international Label ETC...) ! I have my OWN vision (OWN work Methodology) ! You can see that on Far From Home (Constellia/Secret Garden was different with an other way of working but was just a draft of the future) and you will see that far more on all my future projects (Music, Vocals and All) ! So Some people can just keep their mouths shut and stop spread shit or I will shut them down myself again and again until they understand) !

Have a great day! Wonderful things are happening! Thank you for your support and for the trust ! See you soon !

The Future is Here !

The aim of my projects is to make you realise things about human nature and the world we live in (Earth and Universe)! Mediocrity and Beauty!

I'm not here to do the same promotion or use the same codes as everyone else! I'm doing it my way! It's going to take time, but I'm here to set an example, and some nasty people will try to kill me just like they killed the innocent in the past! Stay away from their whorish ways or your soul is already dead ! The domination of idiots and their stupid instrumentalisations/caricatures is about to end! We need to change Society ! Evolution ! I'm not here to keep my mouth shut like far too many people (without Courage) ! I say what people think in silence and I'm here to stand up for the Innocents since the beginning of our Civilization !

FAR FROM HOME Reviews

Max Enix / Far From Home / Double Album
Thanks for All (Everyone) ! Dozens of new ones to come 

*100/100 TheMetalMag ! https://www.themetalmag.com/max-enix-far-from-home.../ "A living dream we all need. A worldwide collaboration of artists spreading love using music the strongest way to spread the biggest message the world needs right now. A masterpiece to own without hesitation ! Human beings are destroying this beautiful world we are living in. Music is the peace of mind and helps fly away from this madness. Added to an orchestra team, it elevate the usual albums you are used to listen to. Sometimes closed to a movie soundtrack, each track has its own life. You are embarked into a world of imagination spilling beauty and happiness expressing what the world is going through at the moment."

For the entire two hours and forty minutes, 'Far From Home' is a captivating and engaging slab of grandeur - definitely not an anthemic driving album!
'Far From Home' has something for every one, whether you're a fan of Dream Theater, Opeth, Nightwish, Katatonia, Pink Floyd, Freddie Mercury, or David Bowie. And as an added bonus, there's gonna be an "orchestral version" of the album released later this year! As if 'Far From Home' couldn't get any better - yes it will!
Overall, an extraordinary and elegant journey of atmospheric symphonic rock and metal, and so much more.

You will requiere patience and multiple listens before the album reveals all of its secrets, but if you have the time to do so you will discover a record that is deeply affecting. Moving on the orchestral version of the Album. The rearranged versions of these songs sound like the greatest version of a Hans Zimmer or Howard Shore soundtrack from a film that you've never seen and they are richly rewarded in their own right. Sweeping and Epic. I would not be surprised if the composer was hired to produce the music for big Hollywood Blockbusters in the very near future.

The orchestral version is what it says, the songs were recorded in orchestral style and are reminiscent of the soundtrack of the Schwarzenegger film "Conan".
In conclusion, a varied work with many twists and intelligent compositions. The entire album is worth a listen.

https://www.bluestownmusic.nl/review-max-enix-far-from-home/ Awesome Review (nl) ! Excerpt: Try to imagine a mix of Jeff Wayne's War Of The World, Hans Zimmer's film music, the prog rock of Dream Theater and the sound of Ayreon and you will get an idea of what to expect on this album. Max's powerful and sensitive vocals along the double Album. Far From Home by Max Enix is a very impressive concept album and an album that should easily find a place in the collection of every progmetal fan! The very beautifully designed textbook should also be mentioned.

*8/10 Metal Digest (Greek): https://metal-digest.com/2023/06/06/max-enix-far-from-home/

*Heavy HQ (Us) The scale of the album does feel like a Devin Townsend and Hans Zimmer hybrid. https://heavymusichq.com/heavy-music-hq-reviews-week-of-june-9-2023/

*8/10 Saitenkult (De): https://www.saitenkult.de/2023/06/11/max-enix-far-from-home/ This year's monumental work of progressive rock and progressive metal comes from Max Enix, bears the concise title 'Far From Home' and captivates for other 160minutes !

*8/10 AWESOME Review ! SoundMagnet (De)  "Densely packed Cineastic Progressive Metal with orchestral violence. In addition to the vocals of Max Enix himself, who does a great job and is quiet varied, the female vocals are sung by Elise Wachbar and cut an equally good figure. For fans of symphonic metal with cinematic means and a lot of mass and class, Max Enix has a musical feast in store.

Max Enix's "Far From Home" is a magical musical journey, a musical adventure full of surprises. As a songwriter, composer and producer, Enix shows off his extraordinary talent by creating an ambitious double album that perfectly combines many different genres into a single body of work.
"Far From Home" is a work that transcends and breaks the boundaries between musical genres, presenting a work with a truly fresh sound and inspiring ideas that is definitely worth a listen.

*8/10 METAL HAMMER GREECE ! Passion is the beginning and the end of Far From Home. Passion for Art without limits, for unbridled creation and the elevation of man as a being and not as a consumer product.  Listen to it again and again and you will constantly discover something new.
"An extremely talented artist, one of those who doesn't just do calculations and measurements with the eyes on the number of sales, but dedicated himself soul and body to his Art.  Max Enix brings out his innermost soul, both musically and lyrically, in a way that you cannot resist and what he tells us is indicative of what it happens in his mind." 

*8/10 ROCK HARD GREECE AWESOME! https://rockhard.gr/max-enix-far-from-home-wormholedeath/ "The overall result is a triumph for Max Enix, who succeeded in creating something remarkable, something that fans of progressive music, but also those who like their sounds adventurous and provocative, will appreciate above all. He who takes risks and dares wins in the end."

*7.8/10 by Music Connection Magazine (Uk)

*RockHard Italy AWESOME review by Emanuele Biani, DPRP (Holland) AWESOME Words, Rocknytt (Swe), Radio Erdorin (Fr), This is Rock (Es), PowerPlay Magazine / The genuine emotion Enix has for his music is clear to pick up in his vocals. I can't say I loved them , but there's no doubt he has talent. Enix should be proud of his achievement; this is a monumental project he's put together, and he should be applauded for the sheer effort it must have taken.

*Awesome Rockallica (Greece). https://rockallica.com/akoysame-to-almpoym-toy-galloy-max-enix-me-ti/ Far From Home is a project that take risks and wins. This is a double Album that Highlights Max Enix's ability as a composer and artist. It is a musical journey that transcends the boundaries of musical genres. Far From Home is one of those Albums that is worth listening to without a second thought..."

*Masterpiece/Awesome/Brillant by some listeners (world), advices and Many Others...

*Metal Alliance Mag / An ambition that exceeds the boundaries of the imaginable! The highest spheres of symphonic and European metal (Opeth, Ayreon, Therion...)! Max and Elise make a fine vocal duo. Max's multiple nuances and Elise's soft, charming timbre are a perfect match. Max's own performance on Beyond my Blood, where he embodies several characters through the nuances of his voice - and through his acting in the video clip - delivering a dialogue with himself full of expressiveness and emotion.
Emotion is the very essence of what Max Enix and co are trying to convey with Far From Home, and it's present at every moment, filled with passion and heart.
Listening to Far From Home, there's no doubt that it's an extraordinary album, in the first sense of the word, in terms of its ambitions, which go beyond boundaries rarely reached, and in terms of the musical journey it invites listeners to take part in. Just imagine what a feat it must have been at every level (logistical, financial, writing, musical arrangement...)!
As well as the practical aspects, it's also the more abstract ones that make Far From Home stand out from the crowd, because of the immensity of the heart and soul that went into it. Far From Home finds added strength in its ability to rediscover itself with each new listen, allowing it to improve like a fine wine.

*Lots of others to come (Dozens of others...) !

Those who have listen to it put me (in General) in the Top Albums of 2023 !

*Rowan G Tepper (Layered Reality Production USA) and Lily Wardzala ! Far From Home Best Album of the Year 2023 ! It's a rare three-way tie for Album of the Year between:
Max Enix's magnum opus, "Far From Home"
Temperance's "Hermitage: Daruma's Eyes Part II"
and
Katatonia's "Sky Void of Stars"
[It's no coincidence that all three feature at least one person who was on stage as part of Ayreon this September in Tilburg]

*Michael Prado Fernandez (The dark Melody 9.7/10 South America webzine) / "Such an amazing album ! My favorite one in Progressive music from this year."

*Fab Borré (Nawak Posse FR) this morning with the top french artist ! I am Number 5 in front of Mass Hysteria but he said that there was not really specific ranking !

*New order from Rafael (Spain) yesterday with this comment: "I did not know your music and it's a real discovery and one of the best new music I have listened to in the last years." Many people wrote this to me ! It's an honor !

Soul.and.Feelings Top 9 of the 2023 year ! Max Enix : Far From Home number 8

Ahasverus / Top Albums 2023 ! Max Enix réalise ici une véritable symphonie, une oeuvre hors-normes qui tient aussi bien du métal progressif que de la musique classique. Elle a quelque chose de magistral et s'impose en référence à plusieurs titres : son ampleur, sa durée, son casting, sa réalisation. Il fallait être fou pour mettre en chantier une oeuvre de la sorte, et génial pour la mener à bien de cette manière.

People Love and People Hate

31/12/2023

Some people will love you, some will hate you and some will remain neutral! We're not here to please everyone! If you don't like someone, cut him of your life and stop pissing him off. Full stop. Do what you like! Talk to who you want and about what you want respecting aspirations of both sides! Freedom of expression! Stay free against dictators/Monsters/Those who play the Victims wrongly, invert All and those who want to decide for you! Saying nothing in this society? It's like turning a blind eye to the killings, injustices (Submission) and giving the torturers a free hand! There are people suffering in the world (Each days dying because of wars) ! Stop thinking about yourself only in 2024 once and for all and take actions ! Wake Up with Courage and Fuck the tyrants ! Otherwise the world will continue to go round in circles with new wars etc... Before the end of our bastard era! Give LOVE and Compassion it s Better ! FREEDOM ! HUGE Things are coming ! More in the comments ! The Future is Here !

Thanks for All

31/12/2023

I hope you have a wonderful evening! Before the 2024 greetings on this page, I'd like to thank you for your support and encouragement all along the 2023 year ! Thanks to you, in part, some very big things are in the pipeline for the years to come! It's all down to a lot of hard work too! We had to avoid having stones thrown at us by some closed minded people (in France, Alsace and the surrounding area), but Victory is here! Thank you to those who didn't believe in it, you gave me the strength to do it! The artistic world is dangerous, merciless and you have to fight constantly (adversity, unhealthy competition, haters, people who want to push you aside...)! Yes, I'm a perfectionist and I never want to neglect any detail! Thank you from the bottom of my heart 

-2024/2025 Already 10 very big festivals have been signed up! Bands and artists will be announced in early 2024! We'll be playing (Mainstage) with some of the best bands on the planet (Epica, Dimmu Borgir, Sonata Arctica, Septic Flesh, Amorphis, Amon Amarth, Kreator, Tarja already confirmed etc... + maybe more Huge names) in front of the crowds! Metal and non metal scene (so maybe Muse, Sting or these kinds of artists/Bands too) on some fests! A fantastic line-up will be accompanying me, as previously announced! Thank you for your confidence! Everything will be professional (vocals, musicians, etc.)! The power on stage will be devastating ! The whole thing will be filmed! There will also be smaller concerts with different configurations (with background images/videos, dynamic lighting, etc.)! Modern and futuristic as ever!

-Many new reviews of Far From Home (already one of the best Albums of the year, even the best for some), Interviews, Articles, Proposals, Collaborations etc... will be released (Singing, Music, Cinema etc...) !

-2 transcendent albums will be released in 2026! Beauty in Darkness and Ocean of Light! Complementary albums like Opeth's Deliverance/Damnation or Devin Townsend's Ghost/Deconstruction etc.! There will be a succession of very hard and quieter passages, and the fusion of genres will once again be in evidence! Aggressive passages and others that will make you dream! Very few guests this time! Epic and radio-friendly compositions too! Even more personal! Avant garde! Never heard or seen before! Everything will be thought out and worked on down to the last detail! You'll be amazed by the album covers, music videos, lyrics and more (completely unexpected and different) ! Dreams come true for some ! These albums will explode Far From Home in terms of emotion and atmosphere (just like the following albums, which will constantly exceed expectations)! My artistic choices will be thoughtful and powerful! PASSION and ART above all!

-Tours (US, Asia, Europe...) will be planned progressively as proposals and opportunities arise!

-Very big responsibilities await me in the industry (artistic/musical) at WormHoleDeath (where I'm already Head of A&R and sign numerous artists), Epictronic, Warner, Carlo Bellotti publishing... Between others!

-ETC...

I'm not telling you any more at the moment, as there are plenty of surprises in store! The future is here! Have a great New Year's Eve and see you tomorrow for the greetings !

I m a million miles away from the masses, alliances of fools and mediocre minds (I'd never listen to them and I follow my own path... Even if they'll do everything they can to push me aside!) ! I continue with the good ones and I Fuck the others and especially the backstabbers and the jealous and toxic ones (Whoever they are. I have worked with or not) !

Rankings

26/12/2023

Thank you Marseille and Thierry François! Far From Home is in the top Albums of 2023 too. Numerous rankings for the moment (those who have listened to it), some of which put me at number one! A lot more promotion in 2024 and 2025 to make it known (Festivals with a fantastic line-up, live videos, Reviews, Articles, Concerts, Label work Etc...)!

Beauty in Darkness and Ocean of Light Albums in 2026, which will be transcendent and will go much further on many points, will get, as a result, a lot more media exposure and even more for the future (Albums, Collaborations, Worldwide Tours, Proposals, Cinema, responsibilities in the music industry etc...)!

The future is here!

Fests

26/12/2023

Metal Zenith review : Guitars - 10 , Rhythms - 10 , Vocals - 10 , Songwriting - 10 , Production - 10 , Overall - 10.00 (Between many and many others) ! https://www.metal-zenith.com/2022/03/02/max-enix-far-from-home/?fbclid=IwAR1Y23G8n281RbPWR099PslRqBZ9AX8QHCCViFq7H8W6XYgSjbfE_1f6agU 

Thomas Kubler

21/12/2023

This is Thomas Kubler (26years old), who has worked with me on the Far From Home double Album at the very beginning of the adventure! He has taken the music I have fully composed/wrote (2h40) on the keyboard (strings/piano/indications) and then orchestrated the compositions! I then called on musicians who has performed their parts (arrangements) to my music wonderfully well (I have compose/written Almost all the piano/strings parts before except on some songs and all the drums was written too for info) ! Thomas, thank you again for your wonderful work!

I'll be revealing the artists who will accompany me (to play along my music, arrange their parts) on future albums as I go along (everything will depend on the albums, just like the concerts) but I'll still be working with Thomas Kubler for the orchestrations and some of the arrangements (that's for sure) ! Maybe he will program my piano parts too directly finally (We will see = no real need to expand the piano parts and have an other piano player because the emotions are the most important and it's my trademark) ! It can be an other orchestrator of course but Thomas is the best for me actually ! I will certainly made all my vocals lines on the orchestrations and piano parts directly this time and will incorpore progressively the others instrumental elements (Rythmic, lead guitars etc...) to have a complete osmose (EMOTIONS before All) !

I'm not interested in working with musicians who aren't capable of sharing the work that's been done (want to push them forward and use this for their own interests, take the cash and that's all)! Haters, say what you like, but you're not capable of releasing albums like that (not only music but the whole thing around) ! So shut up with your shit ideas and stop pushing you forwards, wrongly! Haters are going to throw stones at you anyway, whatever you do, and they're going to find ways of annoying you (for anything and everything = pathetic) ! Sometimes they pretend to be happy for you too (fake) !

Wonderful things are coming and the next albums will exceed all expectations and crush the competition (even if that was never the aim)! The music and vocals parts I prepare for you (and the orchestrations etc...) will exceed all conventional scapes !

*Once again I'm self taught like Hans Zimmer and others (without music theory learning like him) and compose all by ear (with a great team around)! Some idiots don't understand (or are jealous) like it's the case for Hans Zimmer (some elitists don't support that and want only music theory) ! Let them mind their own business! When you play music you're a musician and for me the most important are the emotions and the passion ! Don't listen their bullshit ! https://nofilmschool.com/2018/07/watch-hans-zimmer-scoring-gladiator-interstellar?fbclid=IwAR37BsjHh8iPePejjMp-5uMXwsynUI8gzZ6CigqJrgwozC_yaITLbr6NHXw

Angels

14/12/2023

People against people... Country against country... You're waging war on our souls... Just stay away from me! Angels of the Apocalyptic Storm song! Listen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1LGmpn4VVo ! We must protect the innocent from the predators clutches (jokers) that roam our streets! Those who invert/manipulate the TRUTH! Before the APOCALYPSE! They'll NEVER win, and they'll have to answer to (divine) JUSTICE ! They'll be called up one by one and will cry like children! 

Devin Townsend Path

11/12/2023

That's what some people said about the Genius Devin Townsend (my favorite artist of all time) at the beginning of his career, when he'd already released 6 albums and was around 30 years old ;) Misunderstood by the mass like many artists who break the codes! That takes times always ! Full Article here: http://sadudim.free.fr/Dossiers/Townsend/Devin_Townsend.htm

"But beyond these aspects - which are very personal, it has to be said - it's above all the impression that this guy is still too little known, and particularly in France, that encourages me to introduce him here. It is customary to say of certain artists that their talent will only be recognised after their death. But Devin Townsend is young, and there's no question of waiting until he's gone ad patres to give him the praise he deserves and encourage people to discover his music.

Admittedly, the Canadian singer-multi-instrumentalist-composer-producer (all that!!) is anything but an ordinary artist. He's a madman. Yes... he's a madman in the genial sense of the word. He's also a workaholic, releasing albums at a rate that defies belief." Etc...

For the entire two hours and forty minutes, 'Far From Home' is a captivating and engaging slab of grandeur - definitely not an anthemic driving album!
'Far From Home' has something for every one, whether you're a fan of Dream Theater, Opeth, Nightwish, Katatonia, Pink Floyd, Freddie Mercury, or David Bowie. And as an added bonus, there's gonna be an "orchestral version" of the album released later this year! As if 'Far From Home' couldn't get any better - yes it will!
Overall, an extraordinary and elegant journey of atmospheric symphonic rock and metal, and so much more.

MASTERPIECE Fireworks Magazine (The Biggest UK Mag) / "The whole venture be extremely rewarding ! You will requiere patience and multiple listens before the album reveals all of its secrets, but if you have the time to do so you will discover a record that is deeply affecting. Moving on the orchestral version of the Album. The rearranged versions of these songs sound like the greatest version of a Hans Zimmer or Howard Shore soundtrack from a film that you've never seen and they are richly rewarded in their own right. Sweeping and Epic. I would not be surprised if the composer was hired to produce the music for big Hollywood Blockbusters in the very near future. If there was a remake of "Lawrence of Arabia" , Enix would be the man I'd ask to do the music."

Excerpt: The use of male and female vocals alone brings a lot to the table, and as far as the songs are concerned, they already offer a lot of variety with their suspense arcs and both tempo and heaviness changes.
The orchestral version is what it says, the songs were recorded in orchestral style and are reminiscent of the soundtrack of the Schwarzenegger film "Conan".
In conclusion, a varied work with many twists and intelligent compositions. The entire album is worth a listen.

https://www.bluestownmusic.nl/review-max-enix-far-from-home/ Awesome Review (nl) ! Excerpt: Try to imagine a mix of Jeff Wayne's War Of The World, Hans Zimmer's film music, the prog rock of Dream Theater and the sound of Ayreon and you will get an idea of what to expect on this album. Max's powerful and sensitive vocals along the double Album. Far From Home by Max Enix is a very impressive concept album and an album that should easily find a place in the collection of every progmetal fan! The very beautifully designed textbook should also be mentioned.

8/10 AWESOME Review ! SoundMagnet (De) ? "Densely packed Cineastic Progressive Metal with orchestral violence. In addition to the vocals of Max Enix himself, who does a great job and is quiet varied, the female vocals are sung by Elise Wachbar and cut an equally good figure. For fans of symphonic metal with cinematic means and a lot of mass and class, Max Enix has a musical feast in store.

Max Enix's "Far From Home" is a magical musical journey, a musical adventure full of surprises. As a songwriter, composer and producer, Enix shows off his extraordinary talent by creating an ambitious double album that perfectly combines many different genres into a single body of work.
"Far From Home" is a work that transcends and breaks the boundaries between musical genres, presenting a work with a truly fresh sound and inspiring ideas that is definitely worth a listen.

8/10 METAL HAMMER GREECE ! Passion is the beginning and the end of Far From Home. Passion for Art without limits, for unbridled creation and the elevation of man as a being and not as a consumer product.  Listen to it again and again and you will constantly discover something new.
"An extremely talented artist, one of those who doesn't just do calculations and measurements with the eyes on the number of sales, but dedicated himself soul and body to his Art.  Max Enix brings out his innermost soul, both musically and lyrically, in a way that you cannot resist and what he tells us is indicative of what it happens in his mind." 

8/10 ROCK HARD GREECE AWESOME! https://rockhard.gr/max-enix-far-from-home-wormholedeath/ "The overall result is a triumph for Max Enix, who succeeded in creating something remarkable, something that fans of progressive music, but also those who like their sounds adventurous and provocative, will appreciate above all. He who takes risks and dares wins in the end."

7.8/10 by Music Connection Magazine (Uk)

RockHard Italy AWESOME review by Emanuele Biani, DPRP (Holland) AWESOME Words, Rocknytt (Swe), Radio Erdorin (Fr), This is Rock (Es), PowerPlay Magazine / The genuine emotion Enix has for his music is clear to pick up in his vocals. I can't say I loved them , but there's no doubt he has talent. Enix should be proud of his achievement; this is a monumental project he's put together, and he should be applauded for the sheer effort it must have taken.

Awesome Rockallica (Greece). https://rockallica.com/akoysame-to-almpoym-toy-galloy-max-enix-me-ti/ Far From Home is a project that take risks and wins. This is a double Album that Highlights Max Enix's ability as a composer and artist. It is a musical journey that transcends the boundaries of musical genres. Far From Home is one of those Albums that is worth listening to without a second thought..."

Masterpiece/Awesome/Brillant by some listeners (world), advices and Many Others...

Metal Alliance Mag / An ambition that exceeds the boundaries of the imaginable! The highest spheres of symphonic and European metal (Opeth, Ayreon, Therion...)! Max and Elise make a fine vocal duo. Max's multiple nuances and Elise's soft, charming timbre are a perfect match. Max's own performance on Beyond my Blood, where he embodies several characters through the nuances of his voice - and through his acting in the video clip - delivering a dialogue with himself full of expressiveness and emotion.
Emotion is the very essence of what Max Enix and co are trying to convey with Far From Home, and it's present at every moment, filled with passion and heart.
Listening to Far From Home, there's no doubt that it's an extraordinary album, in the first sense of the word, in terms of its ambitions, which go beyond boundaries rarely reached, and in terms of the musical journey it invites listeners to take part in. Just imagine what a feat it must have been at every level (logistical, financial, writing, musical arrangement...)!
As well as the practical aspects, it's also the more abstract ones that make Far From Home stand out from the crowd, because of the immensity of the heart and soul that went into it. Far From Home finds added strength in its ability to rediscover itself with each new listen, allowing it to improve like a fine wine.

Lots of others to come...

Top 100 Albums of the year : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmplUOweAL8 71/100 in front of some of the biggest names ! ETC...

The FUTURE is Here and will exceed all expectations !

07/12/2023

Hello, I could release a very good quality album (in various genres) every month without any worries (I work very quickly)! But that doesn't make any sense in terms of content, because if you want to make your mark on history and offer truly accomplished and memorable albums over the long term, that takes time (to fine-tune all the details, come up with highly innovative ideas, surround yourself with a high-performance team, etc.)! Otherwise it's a rip-off or takes people for idiots ! Not my Vision ! Of course there are some exceptions for cinema Etc...

That's why I created and composed the entire Far From Home project (universally acclaimed) under Max Enix, which you can listen to everywhere (Constellia:Secret Garden as a co-composition was just a rough draft of the future) !

And that's why the next 2 Max Enix albums "Beauty in Darkness" and "Ocean Of Light" (2026) will be even better in every way, more polished, transcendent, complementary, completely unexpected in the Avant garde and very much in tune with the times! I need total freedom to create! Always with a fantastic Team around !

The same will apply to future projects and Albums, which will be set in very different and opposed universes to previous ones, like Devin Townsend, Michael Jackson, David Bowie or Hans Zimmer for example (precursor/Innovator) but in the modern Era ! Fusion of genres with a cinematic approach almost every time ! I just sometimes feel like I'm way ahead of my time (Not always understood by some people) In this upside-down/Fake society of constant intellectual/emotional/spiritual regression where people only think of themselves and don't talk to each other anymore (or only for their interests) ! We have to broke the system (governated by some idiots) that's going round in circles ! I am Light Years Away ! Once again I'm not here to be like everyone else (Not just another Clone among Millions) and that's what bothers some (closed minded) people ! I'm not here to please everyone and I prefer to keep my own personality ! I'm not going to join the ranks just to please them or to look like them (My vision of profit is not theirs) !

This vision (selfishness/miserliness/robbery... in one way or an other) has been leading us to disaster for hundreds of years! It's about time we changed our social model for a better world more Unite but the thirst for power is always the sinews of territorial wars and divisions ! They don't understand (They have not evolved in their narrow minds) ! They think they can control everything with money, but it's just some pieces of papers ! They think they know Best, wrongly and some even like to trap others (using futilities, your past, some words without telling you the COMPLETE story and what they have ask/said or data manipulation to give them reason when they are wrong so that they are happy uhuhuh ) ! That suits them (some alliances especially in France = you know this beautiful country with beautiful landscapes/Gastronomy etc... but the country with the most abandoned animals in the world, unacceptable spillages/Violence in the streets and around perpetrated by mediocre minds (and the young generations are drenched with bloodshot eyes), where the justice don't do the job to protect the innocents and some womens, with jealous people who don't support when people have talent, money (social classes wars) and invent stories to block them Etc...)! Everywhere... Some are very funny (they don't know it ahah or maybe they like their idiocy = Direction Asylum ) and they joke on others in the same time (what a paradox of non-sense and one other exemple of the human stupidity and some fake people)! The same mistakes over and over again (Corruption everywhere) and some people follow the bullshit  ! I'm not a puppet and from one day to the next I can stop something if it doesn't suit me (even if I've invested)! Nothing can be taken for granted with me ! I follow my path, not those of the jokers ! And I hope you too because if not, the end of our Era is very near ! I put money on my projects to create a better world and a new society , a new exemple for the next generations (do some stupid people understand that) ?

I prefer to work on studio albums or music for films/games etc... but there are some very big and professional festivals coming up (2024/2025) with a very strong line-up as you can see on a previous post (we will play and sing with some of the biggest names in the world actually like Epica, Sonata Arctica, Dimmu Borgir, SepticFlesh etc... Rock/Metal and others scenes... ! You will be able to hear our strong, emotional and powerful vocals), concerts, Tours in 2026 at the latest and lots of other surprises (Cinema, collaborations...)! Huge Announcements soon !

Not to mention the big responsibilities that await me for Carlo Bellotti Publishing (WormHoleDeath, Epictronic, Warner, Netflix Etc...) over the next few years (Plans to be announced gradually)! Reality is better than the net (never forgot that) ! Reality is True (Be careful who you believe around, there are serpents everywhere) !

The Future is here and it will exceed all expectations! It's a Promise !

Plan for the Future !

04/12/2023

With hair slicked back again! Lots of things are coming... Business Plan with the labels WormHoleDeath, Epictronic, Carlo Bellotti publishing for the Future ! I'm already head Of A&R and sign Bands/Artists and will have important/crucial function in the next years ! In the artistic fields = Max Enix Albums, Collaborations, Festivals/Live Shows, Cinema Etc... Too ! Thanks a Lot for the support !

Excerpt: Which bands and artists influenced your music? Which music genres do you play?
I can play and compose all kinds of music because I compose and play everything by ear and I have listen lots of music in my life already so it’s pretty simple and straightforward for me! I’m lucky and I work very fast! I’m self-taught like Hans Zimmer or Danny Elfman and my way of composing is quite similar to theirs! I base my compositions on a very filmic approach! You can feel that on Far From Home and on future albums! I’m a huge fan of Devin Townsend, Pain of Salvation, Shining, Opeth, Evergrey, Rhapsody, Vanden Plas, Therion , Akira Yamaoka and Hans Zimmer, for example! But I want to explore unknown worlds and keep my own artistic universe, my own sound above all, and constantly surprise people! Always creating new things, experimenting, surprising and offering unexpected surprises.

*Fireworks Magazine (The Biggest UK Mag) / MASTERPIECE "The whole venture be extremely rewarding ! You will requiere patience and multiple listens before the album reveals all of its secrets, but if you have the time to do so you will discover a record that is deeply affecting. Moving on the orchestral version of the Album. The rearranged versions of these songs sound like the greatest version of a Hans Zimmer or Howard Shore soundtrack from a film that you've never seen and they are richly rewarded in their own right. Sweeping and Epic. I would not be surprised if the composer was hired to produce the music for big Hollywood Blockbusters in the very near future. If there was a remake of "Lawrence of Arabia" , Enix would be the man I'd ask to do the music."

*8.5/10 Rock Garage (De) https://www.rock-garage.com/max-enix-far-from-home/?fbclid=IwAR2V1D9jtSBBZitMsfwpHunIBy6kaIPfWMvyRpTlcWEYOnfnwwhl-BiyodU
Excerpt:
The orchestral version is what it says, the songs were recorded in orchestral style and are reminiscent of the soundtrack of the Schwarzenegger film "Conan".
In conclusion, a varied work with many twists and intelligent compositions. The entire album is worth a listen.

*Finish note, if one wants to go deeper within the music, grab some headphones (I suggest this to capture the atmosphere of the piece), turn off all modern devices, and find that right moment to drift away and relax with the orchestral version of “Far From Home,” which was recorded with the “Budapest Symphony Orchestra” will offer a unique sound and atmosphere—much more epic, emotional, engaged and complex/hard songs this time than before. https://metal1on1.squarespace.com/metal/max-enix?fbclid=IwAR2-bEccYhb3bUtJJImY0Q9Es6eQnvltALGCmQyZ6i9UtbqicUgb5fkgtt0

*DPRP: Its synchronously offered orchestral version, available separately or as a package deal with the release described above, adds a whole new view and complementary experience. It was recorded with the Budapest Symphony Orchestra and contains a completely instrumental, immaculate performance of the total concept, with exclusive sound effects and choirs that narrate the story. Recognisable through recurring melodies and themes, it offers unique transformed sounds and atmospheres. The serene breeze of Angels Of The Apocalyptic Storm is a striking example, which will delight those in favour of film scoring composers likes John Williams, Hans Zimmer, and Philip Glass.

https://www.bluestownmusic.nl/review-max-enix-far-from-home/ Awesome Review (nl) ! Excerpt: Try to imagine a mix of Jeff Wayne's War Of The World, Hans Zimmer's film music, the prog rock of Dream Theater and the sound of Ayreon and you will get an idea of what to expect on this album. Max's powerful and sensitive vocals along the double Album. Far From Home by Max Enix is a very impressive concept album and an album that should easily find a place in the collection of every progmetal fan! The very beautifully designed textbook should also be mentioned.

-A few words about my new album from sites worldwide:

*10/10 by Metal Zenith (USA):

*10/10 Frenzy Fire and Metal Gods TV (UK): "Majestic, magnificent, meandering and moving. For the entire two hours and forty minutes, 'Far From Home' is a captivating and engaging slab of grandeur - definitely not an anthemic driving album!
'Far From Home' has something for every one, whether you're a fan of Dream Theater, Opeth, Nightwish, Katatonia, Pink Floyd, Freddie Mercury, or David Bowie. And as an added bonus, there's gonna be an "orchestral version" of the album released later this year! As if 'Far From Home' couldn't get any better - yes it will!
Overall, an extraordinary and elegant journey of atmospheric symphonic rock and metal, and so much more."

*10/10 by Onsnieuws (Holland): "The album is a big 10. It’s just one of a kind and very special. And the only thing I can advise you is listen to the album. And not one time, but listen several times. And you will find out new things every time you listen to it. With your headphones on I gives you the ones in a lifetime experience."

*4.9 Stars on 5 Music Existence (US): "It is truly a work of art."

*9,7/10 The Dark Melody: "By God, it is not possible for people to overlook a work so well done!

*MASTERPIECE Fireworks Magazine (The Biggest UK Mag): "The whole venture be extremely rewarding !

Moving on the orchestral version of the Album.

*MASTERPIECE Brutally Delicious (US): "It's been a long time since I've heard anything at all like this ! It's a true and Grandiose undertaking."

*CHEF D'OEUVRE by Ahasverus Cornelius (Fr): "Monumental/Magistral Mieux qu'un opéra métal, au-delà des productions qu'on nous présente habituellement sous cette bannière, Max Enix réalise ici une véritable symphonie, une oeuvre hors-normes qui tient aussi bien du métal progressif que de la musique classique. Le résultat global est proprement impressionnant, réalisé sans temps mort ni fausse note. " Max Enix artiste du mois de Juin 2023!"

*MASTERPIECE Orkus Magazin (De): "Far From Home is called as Epic Cinematic Masterpiece! "Far From Home" is like a varied adventure, so that the double album, which does not shy away from pieces of more than 10 minutes, should be enjoyed from beginning to end."

*MASTERPIECE / Black Night Radio: "Probably one of the best Metal albums of 2023, from Mr Max Enix. A Great Masterpiece."

*MASTERPIECE Pete rock news and views: "Max Enix’s “Far From Home” is a remarkable release that transcends the boundaries of musical genres, offering listeners an immersive and profound experience that stretches over two captivating discs.

*TOUR DE FORCE ! Big Bang Magazine (FR): "Never before... A musical project brought together so many different forces, and Far From Home is nothing short of titanic.
The vocal duets are seductive, and Max Enix does magnificently well in the midst of these exceptional singers, where fury and lyricism battle it out.
Somewhere between Hans Zimmer and Devin Townsend. Far From Home reveals its highly cinematic potential.
Unique and exceptional character of Far From Home, a veritable river rock opera driven by the talent and ambition of a single man, who deserves to be saluted for his extraordinary tour de force. The self-sacrifice of an artist at the service of his work."

*MASTERPIECE ! Rocker United (Local stage worldwide): "“Far From Home” rewards a unique musical experience that is almost incomparable to any other release I can think of.

*8.5/10 Mariskal Rock (Es): "The Multifaceted metal Genius/ definitely elevates the composer as one of the most important creative minds, no longer on the international metal scene, but on any music label that self-respect."

*8.5/10 Rock Garage (De): Excerpt: "The use of male and female vocals alone brings a lot to the table, and as far as the songs are concerned, they already offer a lot of variety with their suspense arcs and both tempo and heaviness changes.
The orchestral version is what it says, the songs were recorded in orchestral style and are reminiscent of the soundtrack of the Schwarzenegger film "Conan".
In conclusion, a varied work with many twists and intelligent compositions. The entire album is worth a listen."

*84% Excellent Review by Via Nocturna (Portugal): "I was thrown into the idea of this album by Max Enix, Far From Home: with three hours of music, an endless list of guests, with the Bupapest Symphony Orchestra leading a set of gigantic songs and with the most unexpected twists and turns. Far From Home is an album that revisits various musical scenes, some of them outside the metal spectrum, such as some passages of hip hop, jazz or new age. A creative and instrumental richness (with a highlight for the sensational piano textures) always accompanied by symphonic, orchestral and choral elements, for all the vocal diversity imprinted by a group of vocalists, each one as its own record."

*8,3/10 by Profil Prog (Canada): "A titanic work with inevitable redundancies on the titles, their lengths and structures which should not be synthesized too quickly; we talk about the beauty of life, faith, the human condition, we talk about a rock opera fresco whose last flowing title should be listened to first to help you understand the musical structure of this French artist extraordinary."

*Josh Rundquist (Heavy Debriefings USA): "Far From Home is one of the Best Album of the month (June)"

*Awesome Review (nl) Excerpt: "Try to imagine a mix of Jeff Wayne's War Of The World, Hans Zimmer's film music, the prog rock of Dream Theater and the sound of Ayreon and you will get an idea of what to expect on this album. Max's powerful and sensitive vocals along the double Album. Far From Home by Max Enix is a very impressive concept album and an album that should easily find a place in the collection of every progmetal fan! The very beautifully designed textbook should also be mentioned."

*8/10 Metal Digest (Greek): " ‘Far From Home’ is an opportunity for you and your “everything” friend to embark on a wondrous journey of choral arrangements, multiple vocalists of every stripe, ripping guitars, and multicultural inflections."

*Heavy HQ (Us): "The scale of the album does feel like a Devin Townsend and Hans Zimmer hybrid."

*8/10 Saitenkult (De): "This year's monumental work of progressive rock and progressive metal comes from Max Enix, bears the concise title 'Far From Home' and captivates for other 160minutes!"

*8/10 AWESOME Review ! SoundMagnet (De): "Densely packed Cineastic Progressive Metal with orchestral violence. In addition to the vocals of Max Enix himself, who does a great job and is quiet varied, the female vocals are sung by Elise Wachbar and cut an equally good figure. For fans of symphonic metal with cinematic means and a lot of mass and class, Max Enix has a musical feast in store."

*10/15 by Betreutesproggen (De): "If you look at the album purely musically, fans of concept albums in the style of symphonic prog metal will quickly feel at home here. There are countless beautiful melodies, wonderful orchestral arrangements and outstanding vocal parts."

*80/100 Rock Overdose (Greece): "Max Enix's "Far From Home" is a magical musical journey, a musical adventure full of surprises. As a songwriter, composer and producer, Enix shows off his extraordinary talent by creating an ambitious double album that perfectly combines many different genres into a single body of work.
"Far From Home" is a work that transcends and breaks the boundaries between musical genres, presenting a work with a truly fresh sound and inspiring ideas that is definitely worth a listen."

*8/10 METAL HAMMER GREECE: "Passion is the beginning and the end of Far From Home. Passion for Art without limits, for unbridled creation and the elevation of man as a being and not as a consumer product. Listen to it again and again and you will constantly discover something new.
"An extremely talented artist, one of those who doesn't just do calculations and measurements with the eyes on the number of sales, but dedicated himself soul and body to his Art. Max Enix brings out his innermost soul, both musically and lyrically, in a way that you cannot resist and what he tells us is indicative of what it happens in his mind."

*8/10 ROCK HARD GREECE AWESOME! https://rockhard.gr/max-enix-far-from-home-wormholedeath/ "The overall result is a triumph for Max Enix, who succeeded in creating something remarkable, something that fans of progressive music, but also those who like their sounds adventurous and provocative, will appreciate above all. He who takes risks and dares wins in the end."

*PowerPlay Magazine: "The genuine emotion Enix has for his music is clear to pick up in his vocals. I can't say I loved them , but there's no doubt he has talent. Enix should be proud of his achievement; this is a monumental project he's put together, and he should be applauded for the sheer effort it must have taken."

*Awesome Rockallica (Greece). https://rockallica.com/akoysame-to-almpoym-toy-galloy-max-enix-me-ti/ Far From Home is a project that take risks and wins. This is a double Album that Highlights Max Enix's ability as a composer and artist. It is a musical journey that transcends the boundaries of musical genres. Far From Home is one of those Albums that is worth listening to without a second thought..."

*7.8/10 by Music Connection Magazine (Uk)

*RockHard Italy AWESOME review by Emanuele Biani, DPRP (Holland) AWESOME Words, Rocknytt (Swe), Radio Erdorin (Fr), This is Rock (Es)

*Masterpiece/Awesome/Brillant by some listeners (world), advices and Many Others...

*Metal Alliance Mag / An ambition that exceeds the boundaries of the imaginable! The highest spheres of symphonic and European metal (Opeth, Ayreon, Therion...)! Max and Elise make a fine vocal duo. Max's multiple nuances and Elise's soft, charming timbre are a perfect match. Max's own performance on Beyond my Blood, where he embodies several characters through the nuances of his voice - and through his acting in the video clip - delivering a dialogue with himself full of expressiveness and emotion.
Emotion is the very essence of what Max Enix and co are trying to convey with Far From Home, and it's present at every moment, filled with passion and heart.
Listening to Far From Home, there's no doubt that it's an extraordinary album, in the first sense of the word, in terms of its ambitions, which go beyond boundaries rarely reached, and in terms of the musical journey it invites listeners to take part in. Just imagine what a feat it must have been at every level (logistical, financial, writing, musical arrangement...)!
As well as the practical aspects, it's also the more abstract ones that make Far From Home stand out from the crowd, because of the immensity of the heart and soul that went into it. Far From Home finds added strength in its ability to rediscover itself with each new listen, allowing it to improve like a fine wine.

Lots of others to come..."

Never before... A musical project brought together so many different forces, and Far From Home is nothing short of titanic.
The vocal duets are seductive, and Max Enix does magnificently well in the midst of these exceptional singers, where fury and lyricism battle it out.
Somewhere between Hans Zimmer and Devin Townsend. Far From Home reveals its highly cinematic potential.
Unique and exceptional character of Far From Home, a veritable river rock opera driven by the talent and ambition of a single man, who deserves to be saluted for his extraordinary tour de force. The self-sacrifice of an artist at the service of his work.

Excerpt: The use of male and female vocals alone brings a lot to the table, and as far as the songs are concerned, they already offer a lot of variety with their suspense arcs and both tempo and heaviness changes.
The orchestral version is what it says, the songs were recorded in orchestral style and are reminiscent of the soundtrack of the Schwarzenegger film "Conan".
In conclusion, a varied work with many twists and intelligent compositions. The entire album is worth a listen.

https://www.bluestownmusic.nl/review-max-enix-far-from-home/ Awesome Review (nl) ! Excerpt: Try to imagine a mix of Jeff Wayne's War Of The World, Hans Zimmer's film music, the prog rock of Dream Theater and the sound of Ayreon and you will get an idea of what to expect on this album. Max's powerful and sensitive vocals along the double Album.

*8/10 AWESOME Review ! SoundMagnet (De) "Densely packed Cineastic Progressive Metal with orchestral violence. In addition to the vocals of Max Enix himself, who does a great job and is quiet varied, the female vocals are sung by Elise Wachbar and cut an equally good figure. For fans of symphonic metal with cinematic means and a lot of mass and class, Max Enix has a musical feast in store.

Max Enix's "Far From Home" is a magical musical journey, a musical adventure full of surprises. As a songwriter, composer and producer, Enix shows off his extraordinary talent by creating an ambitious double album that perfectly combines many different genres into a single body of work.
"Far From Home" is a work that transcends and breaks the boundaries between musical genres, presenting a work with a truly fresh sound and inspiring ideas that is definitely worth a listen.

*8/10 METAL HAMMER GREECE ! Passion is the beginning and the end of Far From Home. Passion for Art without limits, for unbridled creation and the elevation of man as a being and not as a consumer product. Listen to it again and again and you will constantly discover something new.
"An extremely talented artist, one of those who doesn't just do calculations and measurements with the eyes on the number of sales, but dedicated himself soul and body to his Art. Max Enix brings out his innermost soul, both musically and lyrically, in a way that you cannot resist and what he tells us is indicative of what it happens in his mind."

*8/10 ROCK HARD GREECE AWESOME! https://rockhard.gr/max-enix-far-from-home-wormholedeath/ "The overall result is a triumph for Max Enix, who succeeded in creating something remarkable, something that fans of progressive music, but also those who like their sounds adventurous and provocative, will appreciate above all. He who takes risks and dares wins in the end."

*7.8/10 by Music Connection Magazine (Uk)

*RockHard Italy AWESOME review by Emanuele Biani, DPRP (Holland) AWESOME Words, Rocknytt (Swe), Radio Erdorin (Fr), This is Rock (Es), PowerPlay Magazine / The genuine emotion Enix has for his music is clear to pick up in his vocals. I can't say I loved them , but there's no doubt he has talent. Enix should be proud of his achievement; this is a monumental project he's put together, and he should be applauded for the sheer effort it must have taken.

*Awesome Rockallica (Greece). https://rockallica.com/akoysame-to-almpoym-toy-galloy-max-enix-me-ti/ Far From Home is a project that take risks and wins. This is a double Album that Highlights Max Enix's ability as a composer and artist. It is a musical journey that transcends the boundaries of musical genres. Far From Home is one of those Albums that is worth listening to without a second thought..."

*Masterpiece/Awesome/Brillant by some listeners (world), advices and Many Others...

*Metal Alliance Mag / An ambition that exceeds the boundaries of the imaginable! The highest spheres of symphonic and European metal (Opeth, Ayreon, Therion...)! Max and Elise make a fine vocal duo. Max's multiple nuances and Elise's soft, charming timbre are a perfect match. Max's own performance on Beyond my Blood, where he embodies several characters through the nuances of his voice - and through his acting in the video clip - delivering a dialogue with himself full of expressiveness and emotion.
Emotion is the very essence of what Max Enix and co are trying to convey with Far From Home, and it's present at every moment, filled with passion and heart.
Listening to Far From Home, there's no doubt that it's an extraordinary album, in the first sense of the word, in terms of its ambitions, which go beyond boundaries rarely reached, and in terms of the musical journey it invites listeners to take part in. Just imagine what a feat it must have been at every level (logistical, financial, writing, musical arrangement...)!
As well as the practical aspects, it's also the more abstract ones that make Far From Home stand out from the crowd, because of the immensity of the heart and soul that went into it. Far From Home finds added strength in its ability to rediscover itself with each new listen, allowing it to improve like a fine wine.

?Lots of others to come...

Max Enix / Far From Home / Orchestral Version

09/10/2023

Max Enix / Far From Home / Orchestral Version with exclusive Sounds FX (3CDS) / 2h45 of music / Budapest Symphony Orchestra / Release date: October 27th 2023 / Listen 4 songs already here: https://maxenix1.bandcamp.com/album/far-from-home-orchestral

Fireworks magazine: Moving on the orchestral version of the Album. The rearranged versions of these songs sound like the greatest version of a Hans Zimmer or Howard Shore soundtrack from a film that you've never seen and they are richly rewarded in their own right. Sweeping and Epic. I would not be surprised if the composer was hired to produce the music for big Hollywood Blockbusters in the very near future. If there was a remake of "Lawrence of Arabia" , Enix would be the man I'd ask to do the music."

Rock garage: "The orchestral version is what it says, the songs were recorded in orchestral style and are reminiscent of the soundtrack of the Schwarzenegger film "Conan".
In conclusion, a varied work with many twists and intelligent compositions. The entire album is worth a listen."

DPRP: Recognisable through recurring melodies and themes, it offers unique transformed sounds and atmospheres. The serene breeze of Angels Of The Apocalyptic Storm is a striking example, which will delight those in favour of film scoring composers likes John Williams, Hans Zimmer, and Philip Glass.

Beauty in Darkness and Ocean of Light Albums

07/10/2023

I’ve finished the basis of the compositions (demos) for the 2 new Albums "Beauty in Darkness" and "Ocean of Light" to be released in autumn 2026 (at the latest) ! And all I can tell you is that in terms of power, deepness and emotions... It goes much much further than Far From Home, believe me ! The 2 albums combined will be the same length as Far From Home 2h40 but with some short songs this time and some (very) epic ones (21 songs # 14) ! Complementary and transcendent ! You'll also find the hardest/tortured song I've ever written ! Beyond words and Avant Garde !

Simple Interview by Lollypops

26/09/2023

Thanks Vinyl Lollipops and Laura Williams for this simple but cool Interview

Laura:
What genre of music do you consider Max Enix to be?

Max Enix:
My musical and artistic universe is unique! It's a fusion of genres! You've got a progressive rock/metal and film music base, then a whole range of genres are mixed in, including jazz, hip hop, new age, world music, variety, classical music, ETC. Power/progressive/symphonic music! Somewhere between Devin Townsend and Hans Zimmer, if you like! Here's what this double album / Max Enix: Far From Home sounds like.

Laura:
What’s the ultimate direction for your band?

Max Enix:
The aim of this project is to revolutionise the world of music and come up with something different! There's no point in copying everyone else! You have to keep your own vision and your own personality! Too much music sounds the same these days! I think we need to innovate, as artists like Devin Townsend, Michael Jackson, David Bowie, Freddie Mercury, Mike Patton, Elton John, Lady Gaga and many others have done!

Laura:
How would you describe your music-making process?

Max Enix:
I usually write the story first if it's a concept album, then the music like on Far From Home, but it all depends! At the moment I'm working on 2 albums and compose first before writing the lyrics afterwards! It varies! Then, like Hans Zimmer (also self-taught without any formal background/training = See Google for more informations), I call in an orchestrator who takes my compositions! Then the musicians interpret or arrange their parts etc. before I incorporate the vocals, ETC.

Laura:
Why call the band “Max Enix?”

Max Enix:
Max Enix is my stage name! Enix is a contraction of PhoEnix! The phoenix that rises from its ashes! It symbolises renewal and the fact that we're constantly innovating and coming up with very different things! In my opinion, creativity is more important than knowledge, because creativity is infinite and allows you to explore many unknown territories (As Einstein said) !

Laura:
What should fans expect to experience at a show?

Max Enix:
A number of major festivals are already signed up! The shows are going to be transcendent, with exceptional musicians! You'll find me singing with a female singer too! Everything will be professional and work to the latest detail! There will be plenty of surprises in store.

Laura:
Typical question here. Who has influenced you the most via music?

Max Enix:
Without hesitation: Devin Townsend first and then some artists like Michael Jackson, David Bowie, Hans Zimmer, Freddie Mercury, Elton John, Daniel Gildenlow (Pain of Salvation), Niklas Kvarforth (Shining), Tom Englund (Evergrey), Andy Kuntz (Vanden Plas), Dream Theater, and ETC.

Laura:
How can fans and future fans locate, listen to and buy your music?

Max Enix:
You can listen to and buy my music on my Bandcamp page: Max Enix (Far From Home) as well as on all the download platforms! Aural Music too, Amazon, and ETC.

Laura:
Is there anything else you would like your fans to know?

Max Enix:
I'd like to thank everyone who takes the time to listen to my music and I hope from the bottom of my heart that you enjoy it. I've got lots of surprises in store for them in the months/years to come.

Laura:
What is coming up next for Max Enix?

Max Enix:
The orchestral version of Far From Home (3CDS) with exclusive FX sounds will arrive on the 27th of October, 2023 around Halloween! Then a bundle will be released at the end of the year with the original version and the orchestral version (5CDS) for the festive season! I'm currently composing 2 large, complementary and transcendent albums (Light and Darkness) which will be released in Autumn 2026! They'll include short songs (classics) and some more epic ones! A storm of emotion that I want to be even more emotional and powerful than Far From Home! Eyes to the Future.

21/09/2023

Max Enix : Light and Darkness 2 different Albums (Autumn 2026) ! I'm currently composing 2 transcendent, complementary and very different Albums!

Never heard before! 2 albums that will leave a lasting impression! Everything will be transcendent (Music, Vocals, Videos, Atmosphere...) ! It will represent dreams and nightmares!

I'm a precursor, not a follower once again ! I'm a million miles away from what's being done actually and what looks the same! I don't want to be like everyone else. It's a choice!

*Fireworks Magazine (The Biggest UK Mag) / MASTERPIECE "The whole venture be extremely rewarding ! You will requiere patience and multiple listens before the album reveals all of its secrets, but if you have the time to do so you will discover a record that is deeply affecting. Moving on the orchestral version of the Album. The rearranged versions of these songs sound like the greatest version of a Hans Zimmer or Howard Shore soundtrack from a film that you've never seen and they are richly rewarded in their own right. Sweeping and Epic. I would not be surprised if the composer was hired to produce the music for big Hollywood Blockbusters in the very near future.

Excerpt:
The orchestral version is what it says, the songs were recorded in orchestral style and are reminiscent of the soundtrack of the Schwarzenegger film "Conan".
In conclusion, a varied work with many twists and intelligent compositions. The entire album is worth a listen.

*Finish note, if one wants to go deeper within the music, grab some headphones (I suggest this to capture the atmosphere of the piece), turn off all modern devices, and find that right moment to drift away and relax with the orchestral version of “Far From Home,” which was recorded with the “Budapest Symphony Orchestra” will offer a unique sound and atmosphere—much more epic, emotional, engaged and complex/hard songs this time than before. https://metal1on1.squarespace.com/metal/max-enix?fbclid=IwAR2-bEccYhb3bUtJJImY0Q9Es6eQnvltALGCmQyZ6i9UtbqicUgb5fkgtt0

*DPRP: Its synchronously offered orchestral version, available separately or as a package deal with the release described above, adds a whole new view and complementary experience. It was recorded with the Budapest Symphony Orchestra and contains a completely instrumental, immaculate performance of the total concept, with exclusive sound effects and choirs that narrate the story. Recognisable through recurring melodies and themes, it offers unique transformed sounds and atmospheres. The serene breeze of Angels Of The Apocalyptic Storm is a striking example, which will delight those in favour of film scoring composers likes John Williams, Hans Zimmer, and Philip Glass.

https://www.bluestownmusic.nl/review-max-enix-far-from-home/ Awesome Review (nl) ! Excerpt: Try to imagine a mix of Jeff Wayne's War Of The World, Hans Zimmer's film music, the prog rock of Dream Theater and the sound of Ayreon and you will get an idea of what to expect on this album. Max's powerful and sensitive vocals along the double Album. Far From Home by Max Enix is a very impressive concept album and an album that should easily find a place in the collection of every progmetal fan! The very beautifully designed textbook should also be mentioned.

***A few words about my new album from sites worldwide:

*10/10 by Metal Zenith (USA):

*10/10 Frenzy Fire and Metal Gods TV (UK): "Majestic, magnificent, meandering and moving. For the entire two hours and forty minutes, 'Far From Home' is a captivating and engaging slab of grandeur - definitely not an anthemic driving album!
'Far From Home' has something for every one, whether you're a fan of Dream Theater, Opeth, Nightwish, Katatonia, Pink Floyd, Freddie Mercury, or David Bowie. And as an added bonus, there's gonna be an "orchestral version" of the album released later this year! As if 'Far From Home' couldn't get any better - yes it will!
Overall, an extraordinary and elegant journey of atmospheric symphonic rock and metal, and so much more."

*10/10 by Onsnieuws (Holland): "The album is a big 10. It’s just one of a kind and very special. And the only thing I can advise you is listen to the album. And not one time, but listen several times. And you will find out new things every time you listen to it. With your headphones on I gives you the ones in a lifetime experience."

*4.9 Stars on 5 Music Existence (US): "It is truly a work of art."

*9,7/10 The Dark Melody: "By God, it is not possible for people to overlook a work so well done! My question is whether Max will be able to surpass what has been achieved with this monument so full of art , since the level of quality is something that exceeds all conventional limits on a full scale."

Moving on the orchestral version of the Album. The rearranged versions of these songs sound like the greatest version of a Hans Zimmer or Howard Shore soundtrack from a film that you've never seen and they are richly rewarded in their own right. Sweeping and Epic. I would not be surprised if the composer was hired to produce the music for big Hollywood Blockbusters in the very near future. If there was a remake of "Lawrence of Arabia" , Enix would be the man I'd ask to do the music."

*MASTERPIECE Brutally Delicious (US): "It's been a long time since I've heard anything at all like this ! It's a true and Grandiose undertaking."

*CHEF D'OEUVRE by Ahasverus Cornelius (Fr): "Monumental/Magistral Mieux qu'un opéra métal, au-delà des productions qu'on nous présente habituellement sous cette bannière, Max Enix réalise ici une véritable symphonie, une oeuvre hors-normes qui tient aussi bien du métal progressif que de la musique classique. Le résultat global est proprement impressionnant, réalisé sans temps mort ni fausse note. " Max Enix artiste du mois de Juin 2023!"

*MASTERPIECE Orkus Magazin (De): "Far From Home is called as Epic Cinematic Masterpiece! "Far From Home" is like a varied adventure, so that the double album, which does not shy away from pieces of more than 10 minutes, should be enjoyed from beginning to end."

*MASTERPIECE / Black Night Radio: "Probably one of the best Metal albums of 2023, from Mr Max Enix. A Great Masterpiece."

*MASTERPIECE Pete rock news and views: "Max Enix’s “Far From Home” is a remarkable release that transcends the boundaries of musical genres, offering listeners an immersive and profound experience that stretches over two captivating discs.

*8.5/10 Rock Garage (De): Excerpt: "The use of male and female vocals alone brings a lot to the table, and as far as the songs are concerned, they already offer a lot of variety with their suspense arcs and both tempo and heaviness changes.
The orchestral version is what it says, the songs were recorded in orchestral style and are reminiscent of the soundtrack of the Schwarzenegger film "Conan".
In conclusion, a varied work with many twists and intelligent compositions. The entire album is worth a listen."

*84% Excellent Review by Via Nocturna (Portugal): "I was thrown into the idea of this album by Max Enix, Far From Home: with three hours of music, an endless list of guests, with the Bupapest Symphony Orchestra leading a set of gigantic songs and with the most unexpected twists and turns. Far From Home is an album that revisits various musical scenes, some of them outside the metal spectrum, such as some passages of hip hop, jazz or new age. A creative and instrumental richness (with a highlight for the sensational piano textures) always accompanied by symphonic, orchestral and choral elements, for all the vocal diversity imprinted by a group of vocalists, each one as its own record."

*8,3/10 by Profil Prog (Canada): "A titanic work with inevitable redundancies on the titles, their lengths and structures which should not be synthesized too quickly; we talk about the beauty of life, faith, the human condition, we talk about a rock opera fresco whose last flowing title should be listened to first to help you understand the musical structure of this French artist extraordinary."

*Josh Rundquist (Heavy Debriefings USA): "Far From Home is one of the Best Album of the month (June)"

*Awesome Review (nl) Excerpt: "Try to imagine a mix of Jeff Wayne's War Of The World, Hans Zimmer's film music, the prog rock of Dream Theater and the sound of Ayreon and you will get an idea of what to expect on this album. Max's powerful and sensitive vocals along the double Album. Far From Home by Max Enix is a very impressive concept album and an album that should easily find a place in the collection of every progmetal fan! The very beautifully designed textbook should also be mentioned."

*8/10 Metal Digest (Greek): " ‘Far From Home’ is an opportunity for you and your “everything” friend to embark on a wondrous journey of choral arrangements, multiple vocalists of every stripe, ripping guitars, and multicultural inflections."

*Heavy HQ (Us): "The scale of the album does feel like a Devin Townsend and Hans Zimmer hybrid."

*8/10 Saitenkult (De): "This year's monumental work of progressive rock and progressive metal comes from Max Enix, bears the concise title 'Far From Home' and captivates for other 160minutes!"

*8/10 AWESOME Review ! SoundMagnet (De): "Densely packed Cineastic Progressive Metal with orchestral violence. In addition to the vocals of Max Enix himself, who does a great job and is quiet varied, the female vocals are sung by Elise Wachbar and cut an equally good figure. For fans of symphonic metal with cinematic means and a lot of mass and class, Max Enix has a musical feast in store."

*10/15 by Betreutesproggen (De): "If you look at the album purely musically, fans of concept albums in the style of symphonic prog metal will quickly feel at home here. There are countless beautiful melodies, wonderful orchestral arrangements and outstanding vocal parts."

*80/100 Rock Overdose (Greece): "Max Enix's "Far From Home" is a magical musical journey, a musical adventure full of surprises. As a songwriter, composer and producer, Enix shows off his extraordinary talent by creating an ambitious double album that perfectly combines many different genres into a single body of work.
"Far From Home" is a work that transcends and breaks the boundaries between musical genres, presenting a work with a truly fresh sound and inspiring ideas that is definitely worth a listen."

*8/10 METAL HAMMER GREECE: "Passion is the beginning and the end of Far From Home. Passion for Art without limits, for unbridled creation and the elevation of man as a being and not as a consumer product. Listen to it again and again and you will constantly discover something new.
"An extremely talented artist, one of those who doesn't just do calculations and measurements with the eyes on the number of sales, but dedicated himself soul and body to his Art. Max Enix brings out his innermost soul, both musically and lyrically, in a way that you cannot resist and what he tells us is indicative of what it happens in his mind."

*PowerPlay Magazine: "The genuine emotion Enix has for his music is clear to pick up in his vocals. I can't say I loved them , but there's no doubt he has talent. Enix should be proud of his achievement; this is a monumental project he's put together, and he should be applauded for the sheer effort it must have taken."

*7.8/10 by Music Connection Magazine (Uk)

*RockHard Italy AWESOME review by Emanuele Biani, DPRP (Holland) AWESOME Words, Rocknytt (Swe), Radio Erdorin (Fr), This is Rock (Es)

For the entire two hours and forty minutes, 'Far From Home' is a captivating and engaging slab of grandeur - definitely not an anthemic driving album!
'Far From Home' has something for every one, whether you're a fan of Dream Theater, Opeth, Nightwish, Katatonia, Pink Floyd, Freddie Mercury, or David Bowie. And as an added bonus, there's gonna be an "orchestral version" of the album released later this year! As if 'Far From Home' couldn't get any better - yes it will!
Overall, an extraordinary and elegant journey of atmospheric symphonic rock and metal, and so much more.

Thanks Again to the Fireworks Magazine Team (Biggest UK Mag) for all (Max Enix: Far From Home Review, Interview, Advertising...) in the new Issue 103 Summer ! One of the longest Album review in the magazine, if not the longest !  Orchestral version (3CDS with Exclusive sounds FX) will come October 27th 2023

Review excerpt: "The whole venture be extremely rewarding ! You will requiere patience and multiple listens before the album reveals all of its secrets, but if you have the time to do so you will discover a record that is deeply affecting. Moving on the orchestral version of the Album. The rearranged versions of these songs sound like the greatest version of a Hans Zimmer or Howard Shore soundtrack from a film that you've never seen and they are richly rewarded in their own right. Sweeping and Epic. I would not be surprised if the composer was hired to produce the music for big Hollywood Blockbusters in the very near future. If there was a remake of "Lawrence of Arabia" , Enix would be the man I'd ask to do the music."

Orkus Magazin MASTERPIECE

17/07/2023

New AWESOME review in the Orkus Magazin (Germany) ! Thanks a Lot Claudia Zinn-Zinnenburg !

Far From Home is called as Epic Cinematic MASTERPIECE ! "Far From Home" is like a varied adventure, so that the double album, which does not shy away from pieces of more than 10 minutes, should be enjoyed from beginning to end.

New interview in the Orkus Magazin (Germany) too !

Traduction (From German) and complete interview:

Orkus: "Far from Home" is such an overwhelming listening experience that I'm speechless at first. Many thanks for that! How did this concept album come about in the first place?

Thank you so much for your words! I'm glad to hear that it was an overwhelming experience! Right from the start of my career I wanted to make an impact with an orchestra and very emotional compositions! That didn't happen on the first Constellia: Secret Garden album, which had a simpler format! After the release of this album in 2019, I settled down at home and really wanted to make my mark and try to create a work of art on my own at home (the covid period having helped with this)! So I wrote the story I'd had in my head for a while, then sat down in front of my keyboard/piano and the ideas flowed!

O: You don't shy away from really long pieces either. Did you have any reservations at the beginning or was it clear that some compositions simply need a lot of space to sound and work?

Initially I hadn't planned to make a double album with so many epic songs, but I let myself be guided by the story and the emotions! In the end, I created around 3 hours of music and had to make choices to fit it into a double album! The orchestral version with exclusive FX sounds will be released on 27th October and will be slightly longer than the original 3CD version! The compositions actually needed more space to tell the story! The next Albums will be singles ones (normally) and will include more traditional , beautiful and emotional songs, instrumental ones and of course epic songs too! I'm thinking of ending each album with a very epic composition from now on! To be continued...

O: The orchestra is also "real". Why was that important to you, while nowadays it is much easier to achieve similar (but of course not the same!) effects electronically?

I really wanted to make an impact with an orchestra and I honestly think that adds an extra emotional impact! Just the thought of having dozens of musicians playing your music is pretty thrilling! And the choirs too! After that it's true that nowadays we can get very similar sounds electronically and massively which are also splendid and are enough! I don't know yet whether the next albums will feature an orchestra or not! But clearly for film music or games among other things... The Budapest Symphony Orchestra will once again be called upon and recommended everywhere!

O: The cover image is as versatile as the album itself. What is the idea behind it?

It's a cover that symbolises yin and yang in its own way! City and nature! Day and night! The telluric and the cosmic! The magic ! A certain balance is sought in this cover! The divine and materialism, flora and fauna, destruction and environmental problems! A sort of synthesis of what the Earth can give us! Spirituality, the sacred, Love, Peace and War, Freedom! The chaos embodied by meteorites and nuclear weapons! The miracle and mysticism of the eclipse! The mediocrity and beauty of things! The flight of the bird, the flight of the soul to a more distant place! The gradual exit from the human condition... The different elements (Earth, Water, Fire, Air...)! Dark matter, dark energy! Hell and Heaven! The confrontation of our emotions... It's very universal!

O: How did you come up with the title "Far from Home" – and how did you developed the composition with the same name?
I think more “epic” is not possible!

Far From Home came quite naturally! It symbolises the unknown, the Adventure... It's as if we were embarking on a very long epic film like The Lord of the Rings! The aim is to lose all sense of time! A deep journey into the torments and beauty of the soul, the senses, the infinity! The final 26-minute composition represents the end of the story, which is a kind of time loop. Where has the main character gone at the end? There's hope... Everything fitted together very naturally to suit the story! This final composition has been split into several parts and I've tried to create a coherent whole... You can always make it more epic, but it's true that I've tried to create a final journey that's memorable and unforgettable! I hope you'll feel it ;)

O: What does "Home" mean to you personally?

The word home is universal! The Earth is our home, just like other planets, just like the galaxies and the Universe! Houses were built and shaped by humans, and then society followed. Civilisations have replaced each other one after the other! The house is our secret garden, our inner peace and it opens the doors to our heart and soul! The house has no roof, no religions, no rules! It teaches us to live in harmony and peace with each other… Everyone is different and the aliens too !

O: What would you say are three albums that have shaped you personally?

It's really hard to choose - there's just too much to choose from! I'd say Devin Townsend: Ocean Machine, Pain of Salvation: The perfect Element and Dream Theater: Scenes from a memory! The last album that stood out for me was Dodheimsgard: Black medium current! Already a future classic for me!

O: And last but not least: How did the founding of Max Enix come about in the first place?

Enix is a contraction of Phoenix! The phoenix that rises from the ashes! Yes, I've been through a lot in my life and I've had to refocus on a lot of things to try and find my equilibrium ! The phoenix is therefore appropriate and I plan to release an album under this name in the future which will represent my story and my journey as well as that of millions of people who will be able to recognise themselves (in what form is to be defined)! Thanks for all the support !

Bodybuilding for Tour 2024/2025

13/07/2023

Max Enix Far From Home Tour 2024/2025! Intensive preparation for the many professional festivals and concerts taking place in Europe and around the world (Dates/Places announcement around September/October 2023)! After several months of training/bodybuilding I've already lost 5kg (95kg now) and the muscle strengthening is having an effect every day! Important for the stage and to feel as good as possible in your body (even if Spirit and Soul are what's most important)! Take care 

Headquarters

11/07/2023

Here's my summer Headquarters (Cellar of the house) for working, singing, composing etc..., hopefully with some nice cold drinks (it's too hot outside) ! Maybe a delicious mint syrup ! Lots of copies of Far From Home to sign (autograph) and send by post tomorrow to the 4 corners of the globe ! Excellent bands to sign too ! Gradually setting up a recording studio too ! Have a great day and a lovely holiday! As for me, I work first and foremost... 

This is Rock Mag

11/07/2023

Thanks a lot for the good Review : This is Rock mag ! Being  between Porcupine Tree, The Mars Volta and The smashing Pumpkins Bands is always great <3 The next albums will only have 1 or 2 very epic songs maximum normally ! For this one it was to mark the occasion ;)

MASTERPIECE / MONUMENTAL

25/06/2023

Merci du fond du coeur à Ahasverus Cornelius pour cette fabuleuse chronique de Far From Home et ses mots absolument extraordinaires et élogieux ! http://www.ahasverus.fr/blog/max-enix-metal-opera-far-from-home-09-06-2023.html?fbclid=IwAR1Evai7hyiKFhNS5pZbd5yCb8PIz-TKMmdnRdvqNoBRtqoXz2S77qUbytY

Extrait " Quand Metal rime avec Monumental... Ambitieux, titanesque, pharaonique, sont des mots qui reviennent volontiers dans les chroniques de ce double album. C'est qu'on est admiratif devant ce qu'a dû nécessiter la conduite de ce projet et on salue la prouesse de Max Enix, parvenu à un résultat extraordinaire dans un délai très court. C'est donc d'abord à son ambition et à sa capacité à conduire ce projet de titan que nous rendons hommage, parce qu'il faut être totalement fou ou inconscient pour mettre en oeuvre un tel chantier, et complètement génial pour le mener à bien de la sorte. Mieux qu'un opéra métal, au-delà des productions qu'on nous présente habituellement sous cette bannière, Max Enix réalise ici une véritable symphonie, une oeuvre hors-normes qui tient aussi bien du métal progressif que de la musique classique. Le résultat global est proprement impressionnant, réalisé sans temps mort ni fausse note. « Far From Home » a ainsi quelque chose de magistral et s'impose en référence à plusieurs titres : son ampleur, son casting, sa réalisation.

THANKS FOR THE SUPPORT

FIREWORKS MAGAZINE MASTERPIECE

16/06/2023

Max Enix / Far From Home / Colossal Review on the biggest UK Magazine in the world called Fireworks Magazine <3 Thanks a Lot to Graeme Wright, Dave Cockett, Bruce Mee for that ! Glad you like it ALL ! I wait my hard copy now ! Interview in the magazine too !

Review excerpt: "The whole venture be extremely rewarding ! You will requiere patience and multiple listens before the album reveals all of its secrets, but if you have the time to do so you will discover a record that is deeply affecting. Moving on the orchestral version of the Album. The rearranged versions of these songs sound like the greatest version of a Hans Zimmer or Howard Shore soundtrack from a film that you've never seen and they are richly rewarded in their own right. Sweeping and Epic. I would not be surprised if the composer was hired to produce the music for big Hollywood Blockbusters in the very near future. If there was a remake of "Lawrence of Arabia" , Enix would be the man I'd ask to do the music."

*The orchestral versions (3CDS) with exclusive sounds FX more soundtrack oriented will come in Autumn normally... Very emotional and deep ! Movie will come maybe in a near Future...

***I'd love to see more reviews/interviews in France (my country) too ! I have principally international reviews/Interviews ! But no one is a prophet in his own country apparently (CF Gojira) ! And some french people boycott me and I don't know why but it's like that ! In France they don't like success, people who win money, have big ambitions, communicate/play differently and some are envious (so they invente things and create dramas to put themselves forward, they try to destroy your reputation , trap you, manipulate others with fake smiles/intentions, abuse of your kindness and put you aside) ! Some are big mythomaniac sharks too with fake appearences (to mislead and invert things) ! I don't know what they have in mind but the innocents people remains innocents ! I love my country, the beautiful landscapes, gastronomy and all but some mentalities are very strange and incomprehensible ! All the successful/famous french people will tell you the same (Tony Parker, David Ginola, David guetta...) and we have to go forward ! French people have problems with money and jealousy and it's not the same on other countries even if some humans are what they are (want to dominate areas and divide and conquer = Thirst/Abuse of power or skills...) ! But that's why we need to go international ! It's sad but like that heart Everyone is different ! PEACE 

Mariskal Review 8.5/10

11/06/2023

8.5/10 NEW REVIEW / MAX ENIX / FAR FROM HOME (2023)
Thanks a lot to Mariskal Rock the bigger rock magazine/Webzine in Spain and David Esteban for this Awesome Review and your words

Excerpt (EN): The multifaceted metal Genius Max Enix returns in style thanks to the publication of a new Album, which, maintaining each and every one of the hallmarks that he already demonstrated in his previous work, Constellia: Secret Garden (2019), now surprises due to the greater depth and complexity of a magnanimous and colossal conceptual creation collected in the format of a double LP that definitely elevates the composer as one of the most important creative minds, no longer on the international metal scene, but on any music label that self-respect.

An Absolutely cathedral Album. It is complex and dense. A unique piece that is recommended to taste calmly and calmly to ensure a truly excellent trip."

* https://www.saitenkult.de/2023/06/11/max-enix-far-from-home/

An Other Fantastic review here 8/10 with wonderful words ! Thanks a lot Saitenkult (DE) and Michael Haifl 

Excerpt: "Already in the band CONSTELLIA and on the 2019 album 'Secret Garden' Max Enix could prove his compositional skills, but with his own studio album 'Far From Home' he surpasses all previous products. The work is more epic and complex, more emotional and cinematic.

In the spirit of his idols such as Hans Zimmer, he builds up a cinematic sound picture that he lets blossom in progressive rock and progressive metal with tiny detours into the extremes.

This year's monumental work of progressive rock and progressive metal comes from Max Enix, bears the concise title 'Far From Home' and captivates for other 160minutes ! Forgotten are all the rock and metal operas with their numerous players, the gigantic master line-up Max Enix brings up. "

The Avant Garde is the way of the Alien ;)

*3,5/5 Heavy Music HQ by Dalton Husher. The scale of the album does feel like a Devin Townsend and Hans Zimmer hybrid. Each and every song has several moments where it feels like it could end but then it picks back up with a sudden burst of energy to keep you going. No one track feels like a slog nor do they sound the same. It is a unique listen from start to end and one where each listen is a different experience. = https://heavymusichq.com/heavy-music-hq-reviews-week-of-june-9-2023/

Fireworks Magazine June 15TH 2023 Interview Max Enix and Review Far From Home

Head of A&R

24/05/2023

Heartfelt Thanks to Carlo, Natascia and all the WormHoleDeath Family/Team for the trust since the beginning ! Thanks for this article ! Great things are coming with WormHoleDeath records in many ways (Artists/Bands signature in the world as Head of A&R, Artistic projects under Max Enix, Collaborations, Movies, Transcendental shows, Many surprises and Far more...) ! Stay tuned...

"We are proud to announce that French eclectic and ultra-talented singer Max Enix is now the new Head of A&R at Wormholedeath. After having signed his licensing deal with Wormholedeath, Max has shown so much interest in the label’s structure and activities, to the point that he visited us to get to know the company’s board face-to-face. He has been driving for 5–6 hours just to meet us. When he offered us his support as a worker, we could not refuse, and we have given him the most important task that has been vacant for a few weeks. From now on, Max will be responsible for signing the new bands and will report directly to Carlo Bellotti and Natascia Pribac. Furthermore, the A&R team is expanding even more with the addition of Carla Predan to the role of A&R. Carla will report directly to Max Enix in the near future. To contact Max, email max@wormholedeath.com" Article here: http://www.wormholedeath.com/home/index.php/2023/05/max-enix-appointed-head-of-ar-at-wormholedeath/?fbclid=IwAR1wXgL5qo2VzfcUtygKUbxGphnViMmtccKru115iXRA2oz-SyNgarbb9IY

Eyes to the Future !

24/05/2023

Max Enix / Far From Home / Double Concept Album / Release date: June 9th 2023 / Music Connection Magazine Advertising to come in the June issue ! Thanks 

Many reviews and some interviews are coming soon (Music connection magazine, Mariskal, La heavy magazine, This is rock, Metal Hammer, Fireworks magazine, Orkus magazine, Big Bang magazine, Rockhard, Metal temple, Metal digest, Metalheadsforevermagazine, Metal alliance, Progressive rock journal, metal nuovo, Ragebreed magazine , Team brutal, The beat magazine, Nawakposse , sonic seducer magazine, red death media, Bretreutes proggen, ahasverus, Rocknytt and dozens of others (professional, independent, blog...) ! Too many to mention and to remember ! Thanks to them 

For the moment only very very positive feedback and more (between 7 and 10 out of 10) on some magazines (rock hard italy, Profilprog, Metal integral, radio erdorin, DPRP, Metal 1on1 the seven sins of metal review, some blogs called it already as masterpiece) ! Awesome preview of reviews to come too already ! For the listeners in general it’s even more ! Thanks a lot to them 

Just one exception from a reviewer ! This one listened to the album quickly without understanding the story and the whole ! He didn't notice that all the musicians and protagonists were professionals ! Notably some famous artists present in the double Album who are, for me, some of the best in the world today !

But everyone has their own taste and I respect that ! It's not pure metal here, it's not sectarian but a fusion of genres (Cinematic and symphonic before all) ! Very eclectic ! It’s not for everyone but for the open minded people who wants NEW sensations (Avant Garde) ! EPIC ! The goal is that it will appeal to those who listen to metal/ rock music, soundtracks but also to those who listen to all other kinds of music (Jazz, Variety, Hip Hop/Rap, World/New Age, classic...) ! The story is very deep about the world we are living in ! The aim is to offer something unique, never done before! So Like it or not, understand it or not but if you don't like this kind of music and listen and like only extreme metal or others no need to review it please ;) It's for fans of Devin Townsend, Hans Zimmer, Pain of Salvation, Dream Theater, Pink Floyd, Opeth, Therion, David Bowie, Queen, Anathema and others but with a Universe of its own !

Thanks to everyone ! The feedback are so Awesome and positive for the moment and I hope it will continue like this for now on and the Future !  Lots of things are coming , The Far From Home double Album, The orchestral version with exclusive sounds FX later, Others awesome video clips, Some goodies, Fantastic Collaborations (vocals and music), Movies, Transcendental and professional shows (vocals, sound, lights, images...), Others projects under the Max Enix name of course (completely different from each other), Many surprises and I can't wait to let you discover all that ! Take care my friends and Thanks for the support since the beginning ! 

18/20 Far From Home

21/05/2023

18/20 ! Merci du fond du coeur à Metal Integral et à Thierry François (Alias Pumpkin-T) pour cette magnifique chronique de Far From Home ! 18 et des mots extraordinaires ! http://www.metal-integral.com/fr/chroniques/8690/max-enix/chronique-far-from-home.html?fbclid=IwAR0apRY8YK0mCUZQtJjlfBlnYzTvS8d5F9sxBz_dXcmxzDOuYQ_BmB0cr_k

"Le projet le plus ambitieux de l’histoire du metal français ? /
Le genre musical de Far From Home est simple à étiqueter : « symphonic prog metal ». Toutefois son style multiforme est une gageure à qualifier car il s’agit d’une mosaïque d’ambiances qui agissent comme autant de pixels sur un écran plasma. Ce terme d’écran renvoyant d’ailleurs à l’indiscutable dimension cinématique de l’œuvre. Si je me risquais à une définition un peu plus précise, je dirais que Far From Home est une épopée symphonique écrite dans un registre de metal progressif aux modalités oscillant entre musique classique et modern metal. Et, si j’osais une comparaison, je dirais avoir affaire à une sorte d’AVANTASIA dans laquelle la composante hard et heavy a été remplacée par un metal beaucoup plus contemporain. Les multiples thèmes se succèdent et alternent entre saillies épiques et mouvements romantiques. L’instrumentation est très fluide, capable de passer en une minute de la mélancolie d’un duo violoncelle-piano à un blast beat riffé sans que je prenne conscience de la transition. Après plusieurs écoutes, j’ai cru comprendre que les splendides voix claires (judicieusement étalonnées de rock à lyriques) jouaient sur mon cerveau le rôle des manches du prestidigitateur qui détournent le regard de l’action. Je prends conscience en écoutant cet album qu’à bien des égards la musique est une magie subordonnée à la dextérité des musiciens et à l’astuce du compositeur-illusionniste, toutes deux capables de me balader jusqu’aux fameux effets waouh ! Effets qui ne manquent pas tout au long de cet album, tant et si bien que je renonce à en citer un seul.

Certes, je me devais de saluer l’extraordinaire tour de force que représente l’élaboration de cet album, mais que ceci ne masque pas la qualité d’une œuvre à la hauteur des efforts déployés. Bravo Max et bravo au collectif !"

Beyond my Blood Lyrics

20/05/2023

Max Enix / Beyond my Blood / Epic video clip (12min) made by Blue Mount films can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4a6eeH3lGY
Far From Home double Album release date: June 9th 2023 

I share the lyrics of this song (and part of the story) with you today:

« I am.... I am... I am... I am... »

Max Enix:
I wake up this morning
Events scrolling in my mind 
Questions I ask myself all the time 
The existence of human kind
In my bed, still lying
I get up to my thoughts, rumbling

Max Enix:
In the hallway, I'm wandering
The face in the mirror seems aging
From the work and the breaking
Through the window, the sunrays piercing 
« Or at least trying... »

Mahdi Khemakhem:
In this fake world
Appearance is the king
Shootdown your inner voice
Just look fresh and clean
And keep that face smiling
There's a need 

Together: for a sign and a waiting

Chorus:
Mahdi Khemakhem: Emotion’s labyrinth Are haunting me « all day »
Max Enix: The meaning is still far away... You feel the most alive
Mahdi Khemakhem: When I'm bound to die Emotions in storm
Since the day I was born
Max Enix: And then on...
And until you die
It will stick to your skin
Together: A miracle of being Alive
        
 « I see... I see... I see... I see... (echo) »

Mahdi Khemakhem:
Escape at all cost
But there's still a price to pay 
Our resources are thin
And so thick is our skin
So unique each part can be 
But The whole thing is fragile 
No matter the time
Since Life is a curved line

Max Enix:
I'm here and you're there... Mirrors everywhere
The reflection is strange 
Just enough to derange My sleep...
To the sounds of footsteps

Mahdi Khemakhem:
The gleam in your stares
Make us all look alike
When we wake from a crash Beware...
Tears of sadness and joys intertwined 

Together: Flowing from everywhere...

Chorus:
Mahdi Khemakhem: Emotion’s labyrinth Are haunting me « all day »
Max Enix: The meaning is still far away... You feel the most alive
Mahdi Khemakhem: When I'm bound to die Emotions in storm
Since the day I was born
Max Enix: And then on...
And until you die
It will stick to your skin
Together: A miracle of being Alive
        
Elise Wachbar:
On our lips as inside the brain
Our features blend outside again
Waters flowing out of our skin
From the pores, evaporating
On dangerous ground, your feet are freezing 
External events rise, controlling

« The use of bones and limbs and skin 
Reproduction can't be the only meaning 
While our thoughts and souls are forging 
The weak revealed on our nerve endings »

Max Enix:
Our teeth will fall with age or kicking 
Like withered flowers or... burnt victims 
Coagulation, petrifying
The liquid life that flows 
Within

« Far inside
I draw from my resource 
The meanders of our souls Connected to all
Invisible world behind Vivid although it hides
In cortexes of ours »

Max Enix:
Creations of the mind
A color and a verse
An image and a pulse
That's sent beyond this curse 
Back to the Universe

« I’m an unhinged puppet That desperingly inarticulate »

Max Enix:
In directions unknown 
The river that has flown 
Inside the veins of mine 
Red as the darkest wine

Max Enix: The ground under my feet
 
Elise wachbar: The sweat that pearls on me 
Max Enix: Evolution was meant to be
Elise wachbar: From dawns of time to you... 
Max Enix and Elise Wachbar: and Me

Valou Besson nix, Agathe Mouchy Capone, Michael and Valentin: Psychedelic Vocals

Solo made by Stéphan Forté

« And we are just a passage 
The one of our age
I'll stop the time
For you to see
Get out of line
Gradually
Condition's fine
For my story
And in a distant dimension 
Far from this condition
We may evolve
Find ways to be Perspectives open
For those who see
But is it only
possible now?
With demons screaming from every sides
By dint of learning 
By dint of falling Lesson in a living form of believing
I know you're fighting 
You've always been Against the monsters you hold within
Lost in the abyss
The youth will be
Forbidden to bliss
As you will see
But it has always been so 
Behind light there's a shadow 
If appearance's a goal
          
Our fate shall be a fall With silhouettes deformed
Even the soul transformed »

Mahdi Khemakhem:
Broken facades and mirrors
Broken shapes and valours
You fear there's nowhere to go now 
But deep inside you hear a vow
It's time once and for all
To be a slave, to be a slave no more

« As life is flashing back
A light darker than black Obscurity that lacks
This fundamental spark
The Cosmos shall provide 
The places where we hide 
With strenght that is renewed 
Apathy we refuse
Our honour is at stake
The meaning of life is there for you to take »

Chorus:
Mahdi Khemakhem: Emotion’s labyrinth Are haunting me « all day »
Max Enix: The meaning is still far away... You feel the most alive
Mahdi Khemakhem: When I'm bound to die Emotions in storm
Since the day I was born
Max Enix: And then on...
And until you die
It will stick to your skin
Together: A miracle of being Alive

Max Enix:
Is this a paradise?
Is infinity finite?
A miracle of Nature 
Boundless and multicoloured
Emotions are transformed 
New entities are formed

« Watch the smile that now appears 
Innocent souls travel to meet
On this unbreakable summit »

Max Enix:
Can you hear the sound?
Can you feel the vibes?
Can you know the transformation? 
Recognize a face that shines?
Behold...
Together: The Signs

« Emotions are there to overcome 
The eyes open when a love is born 
Senses to heal
Moments to dream
Connect and change 
Think of our pains 
Moments to leave 
Moments to live 
Moments to greave 
Moments to breathe 
Your choice is yours Here is your force »
« Still conscious of this world? 
Our bodies shall return 
Forever, ever and ever
Back to this good old Earth »

Max Enix:
Morning light, and we're gathered again 
The spring reign is soon to begin
Our skins, of different colours
Shine in an fragile splendour
In this ocean of men
Softness is back again
Is it the end of pain?
At least we smile again
   
 « Feet buried in the sand 
Waves provide soft caress 
It's time to heal and bless 
The ones caught in distress 
To love in consciousness 
Purpose of existence
Now love in all its forms Reinstaured as the norm »

Elise wachbar:
There's no more time to waste 
After the war has raged
We have died every day
Now end the disarray

« We don't want this anymore »
Our instincts cannot take control 
Let's take it back, let's make it grow »

Max Enix:
The love that's burns inside us all 
Compassion is the way
For those who are led astray
And for the years to come
We pray to overcome

« The ways of selfishness 
That led us to our death »

Mahdi Khemakhem:
Values are to rise 
Consciousness is the path 
Consciousness is the path (x 3)

« Journeys
Journeys
Shall take very far 
The door is still ajar »

Max Enix:
The wind blows in my ears 
There's nothing left to fear 
Time passes and I sigh 
The world biding its time
    
Max Enix:
Drawing lines in the sand 
Like on the palms of hands 
Destiny I construct 
Symphony I conduct

« 50 years have passed...
Ethan is 85 now.
Throughout his life, he has seen all: the beauty, the wild, the horror, the sublime, the intimate, the fragile...
Near the porch of his ranch, he tries to rest, watching his horses run... His thoughts confused.
He can't help but think of this announcement, posted everywhere:
"The storm of the century is coming"
Some say it announces the arrival of some meteorite... But who knows?..."Are we to be finally destroyed? Are we the new dinosaurs?..." A bitter laugh escapes him...
Anyway, he doesn't fear death anymore... he's ready, and has been for a long time now...
But not everyone is... for sure... »

Lyrics by Max Enix 

Have a nice day

Video Clip / The Broken Face here

18/05/2023

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_V1OxvPtnZ8

Max Enix "The Broken Face" is an epic and very filmic video clip of 13minutes in anime made By Dronicon Films (Bloudengaztia wolfgang...) ! With Marcela Bovio (Stream of Passion, Ayreon, Dark horse white horse...) who sing with me (Max Enix) and Michael Romeo (Symphony X, Solo...) as guests (vocals and guitars) ! Michael Romeo have made 2 awesome epic solo on this song (in the middle and in the end) !

This song is against free/gratuitous violence on womens (feminicides), childrens (infanticides), some mens and others in this upside down society. Against rape and abuses ! The tragedy of our time must end ! The real culprits are here... Those who want to take the blame for their actions and point the finger at others (Inversion) ! The truth Always wins in the end against the oppressors, executioners and torturers who reverse things, manipulate others and want to put themselves forward wrongly (real monsters) !

*Thanks from the bottom of my heart to Bloudengaztia Wolfgang (Dronicon Films) who did a remarkable job in the realization and direction of this clip and the team around ! I recommend it to everyone !

*Thanks to the musicians and singers who appear on this composition namely Thomas Kubler, François Rousselot, Elise Wachbar, Leo Margarit, Vikram Shankar, Jean Jacques Moréac, Xavier Boscher... Those who helped when necessary Hugo Williame and Victor Monteriggioni. And of course the magnificent Budapest Symphony Orchestra conducted by Peter Kovacs that I highly recommend!

*Thanks to the guests present on this track namely Marcela Bovio (Stream of Passion, Ayreon, Dark horse white horse...) and Michael Romeo (Symphony X) ! AWESOME JOB !

*Thanks to David Castillo (Studio Grondahl) for the wonderful mix and all his team around (Thomas Plec Johansson, Eduardo Belchior...) as well as Tony Lindgren (Fascination street studios) for the mastering!

*Thanks to Wormholedeath (Label) and all the team/family around namely Carlo Bellotti (label director), Natascia Pribac, Carla Predan, Heidi Holm, Agrita Damarovska, Coy Iacono, Kishimoto Masa...

*Thanks to all the friends, musicians, artists, people around the world who support me since the beginning!

*Sorry if I forget some people but without you all this would not have been the same...

***EN: Max Enix "Beyond my Blood" is an epic and very filmic video clip of 12minutes which was shot in the beautiful castle Burrus in Alsace (France) and in Brittany near the sea !

This clip is about the human condition and the different emotions attached to it ! The importance in the end is to try to exceed its limits and to leave gradually this condition which enchain us! Connect to your spirit and your soul before anything else!

In this clip I play 2 characters who confront each other:

1) A character in office clothes in which everyone can recognize himself! This character works every day and dreams of another life, less formatted, less conditioned and especially less stressful ... He is fed up with the routine and would like to do something else (especially art) but he resigns himself to it! A character who ends up being tormented by his demons that try to abuse him, to mistreat him internally, to make him crack, to make him explode and that gradually leads him into madness! He is on the verge of burnout and worse starts to distort reality! Another life calls him elsewhere and he has strange visions...

2) The possessed character dressed in black who torments the other character from a distance and vampires his energies! Figure, in part, of the nightmare of his childhood! He sends him signals, pushes him to his limits! He tries to make him explode and uses him as a kind of puppet that he mistreats at a distance...

Fusion of the 2 characters in the end finally and there is only one left, appeased, serene, who has made peace with his demons! The 2 characters are finally one and the same person! The so-called demonic character was in fact his shadow part that tested him and tried to make him understand that he could not continue like that! In the end, he taught him positive messages to make him change and bring him to the light! A kind of echo of his past that is now buried! There are always other possible ways... ! Everything is not black and white but black and white! From there is born the equilibrium ! In this new stage of his life (dimension), the horizon is luminous and he is surrounded by different characters (all from different origins) who are with him! A kind of paradise where people are free, help each other, live in peace and look at the same horizon with Love! A lot of meaning behind all this! Towards the Union of the people and the general appeasement in this dangerous and unjust world! From sorrow to joy, from pain to healing in one way or another but light always emanates at the end of the tunnel! Whatever we do, whatever we live, it is important to always keep the hope of a better future! From the shadows to the light and the healing of your soul heart

*Thanks again from the bottom of my heart to Mathieu Buchholzer (Blue Mount Films) who did a remarkable job in the realization and direction of this clip as well as to all his team around : Mariam, Nino Bld, Kévin Hubert, Lionel Bleyer, Olivier chevalier... !

*Thank you also to the various extras who are on the clip namely my girlfriend Valou Besson Nix and Lyo Gomis, Isabelle le Ménahèze, Lucia Caballero Mendoza, Mael Nouvel, Nicolas Dekeyser, Doriane chastenet, Didier Romanetto ...

*Thank you to Myriam Bassa, Frank Hansel and their family who opened the doors of their beautiful castle!

*Thank you of course to the musicians and singers who appear on this composition namely Thomas Kubler, François Rousselot, Elise Wachbar, Leo Margarit, Vikram Shankar, Jean Jacques Moréac, Xavier Boscher... Those who helped when necessary Hugo Williame and Victor Monteriggioni. And of course the magnificent Budapest Symphony Orchestra conducted by Peter Kovacs that I highly recommend! Thanks to the guests present on this track namely Mahdi Khemakhem (Carthagods), Stephan Forté (Adagio), Agathe mouchy Capone and her friends!

*Thanks to David Castillo (Studio Grondahl) for the wonderful mix and all his team around (Thomas Plec Johansson, Eduardo Belchior...) as well as Tony Lindgren (Fascination street studios) for the mastering!

*Thanks to Wormholedeath (Label) and all the team around namely Carlo Bellotti (label director), Natascia Pribac, Carla Predan, Heidi Holm, Agrita Damarovska, Coy Iacono, Kishimoto Masa...

*Thanks to all the friends, musicians, artists, people around the world who support me since the beginning!

*Special mention to the ghosts of the castle who never stopped haunting us during the shooting and to the many marine animals who are present on the clip at the end but hidden by the sea ??

Interview by Dejected

12/04/2023

New Interview / Thanks a Lot Gabriel Zane (Dejected from USA) <3

Excerpt / Before starting to compose this double album I didn't have a well defined style in mind ! I wanted above all to be carried by the story I had written (the scenario). I conceived the compositions like a film music with keyboard (strings mainly) and piano (alternating) then and thought of the elements which could well be interwoven with all that by giving indications or not (choruses, percussions, rhythmics, colors, songs, sounds FX...)! In the end I knew that it would be a meeting between film music and rock/metal but incorporating many other aspects from where the fusion of genres (Jazz, world/New Age, Hip Hop, variety, opera etc. ...)! Once the orchestrations were finished, all the instrumental parts were finalized as well as the final vocal lines (guests and mine)... So I could really realize the style of the music. I will say that it is an unclassifiable style where everyone will be able to find its account. A new genre or at least a new approach. Some said "epic power progressive rock/metal opera" but I would say that it is above all very symphonic, deep, emotional and melodic. Music that touches the soul!

*Full Interview here (translated) with some questions asked which are not in the magazine with my answers. "Symphonic rock and metal along with soundtracks fed his soul and creativity, developing it until he released the double album "Far From Home", which will be released on 9 June."

1) More than an LP, this album is an experience in itself. And it has a large length ! How does one begin to shape such a work ?

Max Enix: This work was shaped by observing the world we live in first ! Like a bird, a narrator or an external being ! It's a life experience ! It represents both the beauty of the things that surround us (fauna and flora, elements, the Universe, spirituality...) but also the harmful behaviours of the human being (thirst/abuse of power, domination, fanaticism, conditioning…) ! All these elements gave birth to a desire in me to make things change in this society which turns too often in circles and thus to create an upsetting work which breaks the codes. The aim is to leave universal messages and to unite people around the same cause. The story I wrote started from there and the music followed naturally... I tried to put all my heart, mind and soul into it.

2) It’s a concept album. What’s behind the ‘Far From Home’ stories?

Max Enix: Far From Home represents the earthly existence and all that surrounds it ! The actions of human beings ! The oppositions, the different points of view ! In a spiritual way too. The yin and the yang. Not everything is white, not everything is black. We must try to find a balance and constantly try to go beyond our condition. Gradually leave this human condition that shackles us to aspire to deeper and more cosmic interactions. To keep your eyes on the stars and your feet on the ground, for our personal equilibrium. It is a kind of journey of the soul. I'll let you discover the story in time and a 48-page booklet will accompany the release of the double album to be released on June 9th 2023. The Album starts in prehistory with the tragedy that decimated the dinosaurs (meteorite). After that, the vegetation rebuilt itself progressively before arriving in our time. The story therefore takes place mainly in our time. A new tragedy similar to the extinction of the dinosaurs is foreseen at the end (meteorite preceded by the storm of the century). There is an apocalyptic and prophetic sense behind this. The representation of the meteorite could also be replaced by an atomic bomb or other for example (very topical with the current conflicts). It all depends on how you want to portray it. How will they prepare for this and how will it all end ? Is the end of humanity near ? Is a miracle possible ? Are there other connections in the universe (black or worm holes) ? I'll let you discover all this in the double album that I advise you to listen to on headphones with the booklet in your hands ! The story may be transposed to the cinema as well (+ film music) but all things in their own time !

3) It looks like a symphonic metal album to start with, but nothing further. We have a lot of prog, blast beats, very dark parts, avant garde, other devilishly heavy… How do you define this album for those who have been able to hear it yet?

Max Enix: I think everyone has to make their own opinion when listening to this double album. Some will find elements that others will not and so on. This album is above all intended for lovers of MUSIC. There is certainly a ROCK base and METAL anchored in our time and FILM MUSIC... But it goes further than that with elements of world/new age, jazz, opera, variety, hip hop etc... The genres are merged and all this is very avant-garde and very EPIC (never heard before) even if some references can resurface like Devin Townsend, Hans Zimmer... It must be seen as a new genre (Alien). Pink Floyd marked its era for example by experimenting and proposing things never heard before. Like David Bowie, Michael Jackson, The Beatles between others. And the goal here in 2023 is to do the same with this project and the future ones which will always be anchored in a modern and futuristic approach. In that sense I consider myself more of a precursor.

4) There are very varied songs but it all sounds very compact. How do you work that homogeneity?

Max Enix: I tried to give very different colours to each track, but the whole thing follows naturally. One composition is attached to the other and so on so that the whole is as coherent and compact as possible. The aim is that you can listen to the whole thing (about 2h36) without getting bored! And even more so... that you want to go back to it. The end of the double album encourages you to start listening again, as if the Earth were regenerating itself again, unceasingly... One civilization replacing another and so on. And then other perspectives open up. The triple orchestral album (Bonus) is another approach of the story with exclusive FX sounds that allow to understand the story from another point of view. When I write a story, a screenplay... I think of the music as a film and so the homogeneity is very natural! A film is unfolding before your eyes...

5) Some songs are very long, up to 26 minutes, but the listening is very pleasant. Aren’t you a bit afraid that the length might scare off new listeners?

Max Enix: Glad to hear that the listening is very enjoyable ^^ Offering such EPIC compositions on this project is a big risk indeed ! Some listeners may not be ready for it but I think if they think of it as a movie, it will be very natural for them and something completely new for their hears. I'm not trying to be like everyone else, but to offer a unique experience and have the listeners come away stunned. The goal here is that people who are not used to this kind of music can have a lot of fun listening too and not be saturated with too much loud sounds. To leave some quiet periods and then let the horses run at the right moment and so on, like a rollercoaster or a storm of emotions. Like the real life in fact. Let the listening be exciting and always full of surprises. That's the goal. I prefer complexity to simplicity even if the aim is to make difficult things simple! Future albums, which will all be very different from each other, will certainly not be as long but there will almost always be a story and a concept behind it. The orchestral version recorded with the Budapest Symphony Orchestra will be present later to satisfy other listeners who prefer complete quiet and lighter sounds.

6) Throughout the album we have the Budapest Symphony Orchestra. How do you start working with them on this album?

Max Enix: First of all I have composed and thought this double album at home in every details ! Then I contacted François Rousselot, a very good French conductor who put me in contact with a superb orchestrator: Thomas Kubler. He took all my compositions and orchestrated them before giving the scores to the conductor François Rousselot who called upon the Budapest Symphony Orchestra conducted by Peter Kovacs. Everyone did a remarkable job, especially the musicians of the orchestra. I highly recommend this orchestra which is one of the best in the world!

7) If we look at the collaboration section, I think it’s one of the biggest dream teams I’ve ever seen. Did you create the songs with these voices already in your mind?

Max Enix: I didn't create the songs with these voices in mind. It's by doing all the vocal lines at home and listening to the final result that the idea came to bring more variety to the whole so the result will be even more surprising. The first guest I thought of was Roy Khan (Kamelot/Conception) but he couldn't at that time as well as Floor Jensen (Nightwish) too busy during this period ! So I started by contacting Tom Englund from Evergrey who gave me his agreement after a long negotiation, then Andy Kuntz from Vanden Plas, Marcela Bovio from Stream of Passion/Ayreon and so on... Each time I found places that could fit for a singer or musician and it didn't stop ! They took the vocal lines that I had imagined and adapted them to their own feelings. I even had to leave out some fantastic artists in the end like Russel Allen (Symphony X's singer), Marty Friedman (Megadeth's guitarist), George Kollias (Nile's drummer), Dianne Von Giersbergen (Xandria...), Karl Sanders (Nile's guitarist), Ayreon's Arjen Lucassen (who couldn't make it at the last moment) and many others... But I will call them on other albums ! They were all very nice ! On the future albums there will not be so many guests !

8)) Some of my favorite musicians are here, like Marcela Bovio, David Readman or Dan Swäno. What’s it like working with so many people at this level?

Max Enix: It was a dream to be able to collaborate with them! Every time the answers were favorable I was amazed ! It's such an extraordinary feeling to think that such famous people in the musical sphere with such a background are interested in my project, love the compositions and trust me ! They did a remarkable work and I am very grateful to them because it is also thanks to them that this double album is a success.

9) Of all the collaborations, was there one that had a special meaning for you, that you were particularly excited about?

Max Enix: All the collaborations excited me in the same way because they all succeeded in transcribing what I wanted. I have to admit that Fabio Lione from Rhapsody made his effect because I started to listen to symphonic music with the album Symphony of the enchanted Lands from Rhapsody which for me remains an absolute reference in the genre as well as V from Symphony X or Vovin from Therion. Rhapsody is all my youth and it was my favorite band when I was younger (I think of Rain of a thousand Flames or Power of the Dragonflame too which made me shiver every time, especially thanks to Fabio's voice which managed to retranscribe incredible emotions) ! It was magic even if I evolved a lot afterwards in various genres. Andy Kuntz from Vanden Plas too (I think back to the Far Off grace album and the song I don't miss you for example or Abydos) ! Tom Englund from Evergrey too of course that I discovered with Recreation Day ! David Readman with Adagio ! These 4 artists in particular rocked my youth ! But I'm not going to mention everyone and they are all AMAZING ! If I have called them in the project it's because they hold an important place in my heart anyway and they are all great ! Special mention for Michael One twenty who is a very talented and complete artist (more in hip hop and fusion) and who did a wonderful job! A collaboration with him should come in a near future but that's another story !

10) I know you’re working on the visual aspect of the album, creating videos. I’ve seen some advances. Could you tell us about them?

Max Enix: So I worked on the visual aspect from afar because I gave directives, writings or sketches to the illustrators or directors of video clips in relation to what I really wanted (in particular the front and back cover of the double Album, the other illustrations, the vision of the video clips...) ! In that sense I remain the artistic director of the whole ! But I didn't create any video ! I called for specific directors. One with a video clip shot in the Burrus castle and in Brittany: Mathieu Buchholzer (Blue mount films) ! In this one I play a possessed character between others (Human condition). An other for an animated video clip: Bloudengaztia wolfgang (Dronicon films) and one other who take care of two video clips in 3D with the Unreal Engine: Lucas Bastian ! In one of them I play a character too ! Fantastic directors who did a great job ! The videos you could see for the moment on my pages were created by a superb Israeli artist = DPMX Studios/Designers ! He is working on the video illustration of the whole double album (original and orchestral version) and the result is absolutely amazing (especially the last composition of the double album of 26min with breathtaking images) ! An artist that I recommend to you and who makes many illustrations in parallel (Tshirts, flyers...) for excellent costs !

11) You have announced the recording of a concert during the tour for the release of a blu ray/dvd. And it will be spectacular! Would you tell us something about this show?

Max Enix: At the moment I am mobilizing a very solid line up with professional musicians for the future concerts to come ! Some of the musicians from the double album will be present and others as well. There will be a professional woman singer who will support me on vocals ! Everything will be the most professional and worked possible (Stage play, musicians, vocals, light, sounds...) ! I am a perfectionist and I worked a lot to make everything as perfect as possible ! That said, it requires a lot of work and a titanic set up. The concerts will be announced as soon as possible! As for the tour I think it will be in 2024 if possible in Asia or in the USA but it could very well be in Europe, in South America, in Australia or elsewhere... We will see but things will be announced in due time ! And yes a special concert will be organized during which we will film the entire performance for a Blu Ray/DVD release ! More than 3 hours of show where we will play the whole double album ! It's a challenge but I'll do everything to make it happen and yes everything will be set up to make it as spectacular as possible

12) The songs are complex, and I’m surprised to read that you’re self-taught. Don’t you have any kind of musical academic background?

Max Enix: So yeah, as incredible as it may seem, I have no formal musical training and I am self-taught just like Hans Zimmer (I recommend you to read his articles about that) or Danny Elfman among many others... I work in the same way as them ! It is not always well seen by some elites but all roads lead to Rome as they say ! I compose according to the emotions I feel and what comes from me, from my soul above all. I know how to transcribe things according to the lyrics, the story or others. It's very spontaneous and natural for me and I don't need to force it. Then by dint of composing and working things became more professional. It's a lot of work but it's worth it in the end ! I have never stopped working for more than 20 years but despite hundreds of improvisations, bands in which I was present on vocals and a previous album under Constellia: Secret Garden (successful but totally different and less ambitious) I had never dared to launch into such projects ! But better late than never as they say :) I waited for the right moment !
For singing, it's different because I was trained in a choir when I was young and after the release of my first album I took singing lessons with a renowned vocal coach: Milo Lee who did master classes in the USA among others and who helped me to gain confidence in myself. Thanks to him I reached a professional level. Of course all this project would not have been possible without the extraordinary talent of the musicians who accompany me on this double album. I think once again of Thomas Kubler who took my compositions and orchestrated them, and of the virtuoso musicians who are Leo Margarit (Pain of Salvation...) on drums, Vikram Shankar (Silent Skies...) on piano, Jean Jacques Moréac (Misanthrope...) on bass and Xavier Boscher (Ex-Misanthrope/Solo...) on guitars, among others! They did a marvelous job and respected what I wished and the elements that I had given to them (notably the many piano parts). I am eternally grateful to them and the result would not have been the same without them. And important thing... I respect everyone's methodology and I would like it to be the same for others (it's not always the case) !

For my projects, compositions, lyrics, stories, vocals parts, ideas and others... I also base my existence on very deep spiritual and emotional connections and according to me everything is guided by an elsewhere ! It's inexplicable but The universe is so vast and infinite ! Everything is a question of practice, of mental age, of innate, of inscriptions, of programming, of connections, of dimensions... I have my own way of proceeding, of working and reasoning ! Unique ! It is not always well understood ! But it's the magic and mystery behind it !

The double album Far From Home will be released on June 9th 2023 under Max Enix and I hope with all of my heart that you will like it ! Many surprises are coming (video clips, goodies, collaborations, future projects...) ! Thanks for reading this interview until the end and see you soon on stage and elsewhere (unexplored and unknown places) ! The Future is Here ! PEACE

Review Rock Hard Italia

Thanks to all of you.

Review:
*It: Quando si intraprende un viaggio di 2 ore e 40 minuti, il rischio di ritrovarsi abbastanza lontano da casa in effetti è alto, ma fortunamente all'iperattivo Max non mancano coraggio e creatività. Far From Home è un lavoro gigantesco che utilizza il metal progressivo come exclusivo punto di partenza nella sua commistione, talvolta ai limiti della coerenza stilistica, con praticamente qualsiasi altro genere musicale. Il ricco catalogo degli ospiti, comprendente Fabio Lione, Michael Romeo, Derek Sherinian, Damian wilson, Marcela Bovio e Dan Swano, oltre al supporto classico della Budapest symphony orchestra, per certi versi agevola e forse giustifica un senso di smarrimento quasi fisiologico, nell'economia di tracce che spesso superano i 10 minuti di durata e diventano addirittura 26 nella title track. Lo sforzo in termini compositivi e produttivi di Enix è stato senza dubbio titanico e richiederà altrettanta volontà da parte dell'ascoltatore per essere assimilato. Tuttavia, mettendo la testa fuori dalla tana di una soggettività spacciata per presunta autorevolezza, ci renderemmo conto dell'esistenza di un pubblico molto vasto (quello di Arjen Anthony Lucassen ad esempio) e per nulla arrendevole, anche e soprattutto nei confronti di album impregnativi come questo.

*En (Deepl traduction): When embarking on a journey of 2 hours and 40 minutes, the risk of finding oneself quite far from home is indeed high, but fortunately the hyperactive Max does not lack courage and creativity. Far From Home is a gigantic work that uses progressive metal as an exclusive starting point in its admixture, sometimes bordering on stylistic coherence, with practically any other musical genre. The rich catalogue of guests, including Fabio Lione, Michael Romeo, Derek Sherinian, Damian wilson, Marcela Bovio and Dan Swano, in addition to the classical support of the Budapest symphony orchestra, in some ways facilitates and perhaps justifies an almost physiological sense of bewilderment in the economy of tracks that often exceed 10 minutes in length and become as much as 26 in the title track. The effort in terms of composition and production by Enix was undoubtedly titanic and will require just as much will on the part of the listener to be assimilated. However, if we put our heads out of the den of subjectivity passed off as presumed authority, we would realise that there is a very large audience (that of Arjen Anthony Lucassen for example) and not at all surrendered, even and especially towards impregnative albums like this one.

NEW REVIEW / FAR FROM HOME

Thanks a lot Kris Marsden for this beautiful review !

Review Excerpt: "As one continues their musical journey -a musical journey that is epic, grand, powerful, unique and magical and something different, fresh -again special and truly will capture the listener’s ears, heart and soul—simultaneously, as I was inking this review, I was so lost and transfixed with this release and with this feeling that “Far From Home” is a release where this whole thing should be played without skipping any tracks, a release to find that right moment, sit back and chill and let this musical spectrum flow through your ears and speakers.

A Universe of epic, emotional & engaging Musical Journey ”
At the same time, “Far From Home” is delivered and provided by impressive and skilled (all wrapped professionally/sophisticated arrangements) craftsmanship, musicianship and showmanship, and not just Max but a handful of guests that gives the listener this masterpiece that consists of incredible music, instrumentation, lyrics, story-concept that’s all well-executed, beautifully score and composed -where each composition/characteristics are convenient to place at the right moment. Thus, giving the listener this “Music is art, and art should know no boundaries” of Avant Garde never heard before fusion that consists of awe-inspiring multi-verse of instrumentation artistry of (technical/complex) guitar and drum work that utilises various tones, tempos, atmosphere, moods, virtuoso riffs/multi-cords, rhythms, melodic passages, various drum beats/fills and patterns, vocal work consists of multiple tones, ranges, and clean male/female singing/operatic sections. In contrast, one will find other elements within the musical spectrum/instrumental and vocals (pulls the music together!), which included progressive-symphonic-post rock/metal, film scores/sound effects with diverse aspects of world/New Age, Hip hop, Jazz, international variety and others.

A compelling and astonishing result -with a magical spark of beauty, epic, grand, bold and breathless sensation. At the same time, the Orchestral version of “Far From Home” hit me and transported me away to somewhere tranquil and the loss of time… truly the second part is unique and breathtakingly beautiful. Take a moment to listen to both versions—simultaneously, the piano work gives me that “Freddie Mercury” and sometimes, sections of the music (within the songs) give that (German acts) “Helloween/Gamma Ray” vibe -spine-chilling sensation."

New REVIEW / Far From Home

24/02/2023

Max Enix / Far From Home / New REVIEW after the wonderful opinions received already ! Some words here and full article link below:

"Max Enix, the name you know! Well, probably not, but if epic conceptual symphonic prog/power-metal from the likes of Ayreon, Rhapsody, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Nightwish and Avantasia rank amongst your favourites then Max Enix is surely a name you'll need to remember from now on.

Those already acquainted with Enix (compositions, vocals, artistic director, lyrics) through his masked incarnation Constellia from a few years back, might be well surprised with this new and highly ambitious project. It shows a completely different face to the one presented on Secret Garden. And a lengthy difference at that! For Far From Home amounts to over 2.5 hours of breathtakingly diverse and sublimely orchestrated, brilliantly executed prog-metal, that will appeal to fans of Angra, Stratovarius, Sonata Arctica, Devin Townsend, Dragonforce and many of the names that follow.

As first impressions go, the gorgeous artwork that accompanies the impressive package is, in one word, sublime. Next to beautiful narrative-enhancing drawings by Thomas Ewerhard, this includes all the song lyrics with corresponding performers mentioned. Elaborations on the storyline between these lyrics outline Enix's story. Even with only the digital version at hand, it is very attractive. I reckon that upon release in its various physical forms (which will be the 9th of June this year), this will be breathtaking.

Aided by various orchestrated layers and arrangements by conductor Thomas Kubler, these amazingly talented and technically amazing musicians undeniably make Far From Home an interesting, overwhelming, and at times ravishingly astounding album with plenty of musical highlights. And surprises! For next to the mix of bombastic prog-metal, interspersed with quiet, more symphonic passages, it also features opera, ambient, exploding musical extravaganza and many creative movements filled with endless melodies. Bear in mind that all this, including rap-vocals takes place in the daringly complex opening duo of The End Of An Era and Tears Of Earth. And to think a gargantuan buffet fit for kings is still to come!

Amidst all the various successful mood/tempo changes, odd time signature, different alternating atmospheres, instrumental prowess and elegantly laced symphonic melodies, most of them flowing seamlessly, it's especially Boscher's guitar that shines with excellent solo eruptions, closely followed by Shankar on keys and piano, who is definitely having a field day or two. The same can be stated for the tight drum deliveries by Margarit, who next to his subtlety and finesse regularly shows his muscular dexterity.

Its synchronously offered orchestral version, available separately or as a package deal with the release described above, adds a whole new view and complementary experience. It was recorded with the Budapest Symphony Orchestra and contains a completely instrumental, immaculate performance of the total concept, with exclusive sound effects and choirs that narrate the story. Recognisable through recurring melodies and themes, it offers unique transformed sounds and atmospheres. The serene breeze of Angels Of The Apocalyptic Storm is a striking example, which will delight those in favour of film scoring composers likes John Williams, Hans Zimmer, and Philip Glass. Two and a half hours of enchanting classical inspired cinematic music is however well beyond my concentration limits and after time I do feel my attention indeed wanders off.

Overall, Enix clearly shows an upward trend in compositional strength with Far From Home compared to Constellia's efforts. Vocally, I'm not overly convinced yet, but I do applaud the time, care and effort that's gone into this monumental project so far. With announcements made of upcoming vinyl versions, live stage productions for a future DVD/Bluray releases, and an array of epic video clips to further deepen Enix's message about beauty of life and various weaknesses buried within our humanity, his efforts look far from over. All for the better, for altogether he has crafted an unforgettable monumental effort that is fully worth discovering!" End of the words !

Of course it's depends on everyone's tastes and especially if some like music in a modern, avant garde way or more traditional way ! Here we are far more in the first avant garde/modern way ! I respect all the opinions ! In this double album my voice is a thread that leads to the different guests voices and others ! I have imagined all the vocal lines for the guests and me ! In future albums there will be less guests and therefore more variations of voices by my side but I have already tried to do a lot here ;) The feedback on my voice are really great in general and I'm very grateful to that but it depends on the tastes of course and understanding of the whole (especially for a 2h40 double album) ! Everything will be professional (studio, live...) and the shows promise to be transcendent ! The Future will be Epic and very surprising and challenging

There will already be reviews/interviews and articles of Far From Home before the press plan in May 2023 with the Label Wormholedeath !

Thanks a Lot to DPRP and Jan Buddenberg for this review !

*Thomas Kubler is the orchestrator and François Rousselot the conductor ! And in the precedent one under Constellia I was co-composer and not the principal composer ! Error in the review ! Here now for Far From Home it's different since the beginning ;)

The storm of emotions is coming (June 9th 2023) and first video clip beginning of may 2023 ! Lots of things are coming ! Stay tuned

The Future is Here !

21/02/2023

Max Enix / Far From Home double Album is coming (June 9th 2023) and many surprises too ! Each album/project will be completely different from each other ! Just like Devin Townsend, David Bowie or Hans Zimmer for exemple ! Always at the forefront (Avant Garde) ! I'm not here to do things like everyone else and reuse the same codes indefinitely ! The fusion of genres will always be the trademark with modern sounds and anchored in the era of time ! UNIQUE !
Stay tuned...

The future is here !

MAX ENIX / FAR FROM HOME

28/01/2023

MAX ENIX / FAR FROM HOME / SPRING 2023
DOUBLE ALBUM / 2H40 / A REAL MOVIE
BIG NEWS IN THE COMING DAYS AND LOTS OF STUFF !
THE STORM OF EMOTIONS IS COMING ! STAY TUNED !

"Trying to review this album is like trying to review a skyscraper; it doesn't care; it just keeps going! And let me be absolutely clear those are words of praise. Monstruous, Monumental. Let's just say that Far From Home is so good that I've listened to it 8 times since he shared it with us last week. It gets better with each time. It's the one album that I consider to be "perfect, I think yours may be the first -out of the more than 8,000 I've heard in the last 5 years . It gets better with each time. Since I'm in "techie-mode" now, I'll translate my praise into a number: that comparison means your is in the top 0.0119% of all the albums I've heard since the beginning of 2018. The voices are impressive. Already in my top Albums of 2023 ! A Future classic !" Between many outstanding feedback in the world !

*"Never heard since David Bowie, Pink Floyd... There is one in a million like you ! Completely in tune with our times ! An earthquake ! A double album that will change the face of the world"

"I have checked your album "Far From Home" and wow... I have been blown away. These songs are absolutely killer...
Where to start...well for sure from the part where I say that I love it. It’s absolutely great, Symphonic and Technical but in a catchy way and tuneful.

It is very difficult to find precise influences, because the conceptual level of the compositions ranges between various stylistic strands, keeping in a very precise way, centred and very focused on a certain Symphonic Prog with a Metal vein. The project has a lot of personality, thanks also to a fluid writing and an absolutely convincing execution. The double album has no weak points thanks to unquestionable compositional skills. This is the decisive union that gives you a unique stylistic imprint that always maintains a high maturity and intensity. The songs as well as the project itself have their own specific identity that is extremely personal. The vocal work is awesome as well as all the instrumental parts. Guitars, orchestrations, keyboards and rhythm section are powerful and they do a great job in the composition and arrangements. An epic project full of quality ideas, lyrics and sounds are highly researched and original. I haven't listened to a record of this sound matrix for a long time.

There’s quite a lot of variation in the songs but it sounds like a solid album and doesn’t sound like a compilation....This means that you are really mature songwriting-wise. The level of the album is always high, (from the beginning to the end) and there are no boring or low moments. I think that your style and sound are quite original. A combination of many, ranging from Symphonic Prog to Technical and more Metal influences, but I can’t relate you to any other act in particular and this is a great point, this means that you sound unique. Professional production, recordings and mix....Well done, I really like your product! We can absolutely talk further."

THE FUTURE IS HERE !

Far From Home / Professional Advices

*Max Enix / Far From Home / Double Album / Spring 2023
Lots of things are coming (Awesome Video Clips/ Release date/ Reviews/ Interviews/ Goodies/ Shows and many surprises...) !
Double Album 2h40 + Triple Orchestral Album with exclusive sounds FX 2h45) / Transcendental and professional Shows-Concerts (Vocals, Stage performances, Images, Sounds, Lights...) !
Never seen/heard before ! Avant Garde, Art ! Stay Tuned...

*Professional Advice: "I have checked your album "Far From Home" and wow... I have been blown away. These songs are absolutely killer...
Where to start...well for sure from the part where I say that I love it. It’s absolutely great, Symphonic and Technical but in a catchy way and tuneful.

It is very difficult to find precise influences, because the conceptual level of the compositions ranges between various stylistic strands, keeping in a very precise way, centred and very focused on a certain Symphonic Prog with a Metal vein. The project has a lot of personality, thanks also to a fluid writing and an absolutely convincing execution. The double album has no weak points thanks to unquestionable compositional skills. This is the decisive union that gives you a unique stylistic imprint that always maintains a high maturity and intensity. The songs as well as the project itself have their own specific identity that is extremely personal. The vocal work is awesome as well as all the instrumental parts. Guitars, orchestrations, keyboards and rhythm section are powerful and they do a great job in the composition and arrangements. An epic project full of quality ideas, lyrics and sounds are highly researched and original. I haven't listened to a record of this sound matrix for a long time.

There’s quite a lot of variation in the songs but it sounds like a solid album and doesn’t sound like a compilation....This means that you are really mature songwriting-wise. The level of the album is always high, (from the beginning to the end) and there are no boring or low moments. I think that your style and sound are quite original. A combination of many, ranging from Symphonic Prog to Technical and more Metal influences, but I can’t relate you to any other act in particular and this is a great point, this means that you sound unique. Professional production, recordings and mix....Well done, I really like your product! We can absolutely talk further. Completely in tune with the times"

*"Not seen since David Bowie !"
"Trying to review this album is like trying to review a skyscraper; it doesn't care; it just keeps going! And let me be absolutely clear those are words of praise. Monstruous, Monumental. Let's just say that Far From Home is so good that I've listened to it 8 times since he shared it with us last week. It gets better with each time. It's the one album that I consider to be "perfect, I think yours may be the first -out of the more than 8,000 I've heard in the last 5 years . It gets better with each time. Since I'm in "techie-mode" now, I'll translate my praise into a number: that comparison means your is in the top 0.0119% of all the albums I've heard since the beginning of 2018. The voices are impressive. A Future classic !"

*This concept album will be completely in tune with today’s world and what might happen, the consequences to come... It will deal with the beauty of Life..., the human condition, will be turned towards spirituality and will also denounce the human stupidity on certain points and the actions not to be reproduced any more (the corruption, the conditioning, the oppression, the tyranny, the exploitation, the forced work, the domination, the law of « do or die », the religious fanaticism, the divisions, the violence, the blindness, the fake news, data use, the I don't care attitudes etc...) !

*Max Enix "Far From Home" is a fusion of progressive-symphonic-post rock/metal , filmscore with diverse elements of world/New Age, Hip hop, Jazz, international variety and others (Avant Garde) !

In this Violent and Fake Society ! Song against corruption, power abuse, fake news, free violence, inequalities and others in our our streets... I will play a crazy and possessed character with a gun too ! It will be scary ! Pushing the limits ! Those who don't know me personally will soon get to know me! I'm not here to make jokes and it's time some people understood that ! I'm nice and kind in general but I see and feel things, I take it upon myself when necessary but when I explode, I explode ! My patience has limits ! And you mustn't get in my way at that moment, believe me ! In Life and Death so don't play with me or you will bitterly regret it ! Violent people are ridiculous ! I'm here to counter the shit we see in this crazy world and put the jerks in their stupid place ! This society cannot continue like this, it's time for things to change and stop being stupid sheep who follow the worst idiots ! Stop the blindness ! Stop being manipulated by assholes and stay true to yourself ! JUSTICE !!! WAKE UP !!!

Thanks to all the Team and especially Lucas Bastian !

Throw your guns away
Down the road of disarray

Far From Home (2023), the future Albums very different from each other and all attached to them... will be transcendental and revolutionary for sure!
Just like the concerts/shows which will be professional on all levels (vocals, musicians, lights-sounds etc...) wonderful and breathtaking!
Everything has been worked for and will be in the smallest details!
The high level does not forgive and everything will have to be close to perfection!
The goal is for you to be constantly amazed in everything that comes out of it and there will be many surprises!
The Future is here and beyond the music!

"Max Enix / Far From Home /
I have composed everything by ear this time (the whole double Album 2h39) but thanks to Victor Monteriggioni (copyist) and of course Thomas Kubler (orchestrator/Additional arrangements) who have worked on the papers scores !
The papers scores were important for François rousselot (conductor of the Budapest symphony orchestra this time) ! It could have been another conductor !

No I'm not a music theory expert like many... I have my own methodology like Hans Zimmer (Self-taught without formal education = See post in the commentary section) and many others and I know how to call on the right people to accompany me on my artistic adventures) ! I have my OWN vision for the whole and it will be the case for all my projects (except collaborations) !

If the label is Ok... I will publish all my compositions (instrumental demos) of the upcoming Albums (Far From Home 2h39...) when it's time after the release (piano, keyboards, choirs, strings parts for orchestrations, some instrumental indications and others...) before Thomas Kubler reproduced my compositions and made the orchestrations, additional arrangements. And before recording of the orchestra ! !!

For the vocals... I have imagine all the vocals parts but Important to know that once the orchestrations/orchestra parts were received... I had to create some new Vocals parts... So some vocals parts were rethought, create and elaborate at home (those of the guests made before in general) and only after recorded and then transformed sometimes in the studio (if necessary).

For the Future it will be different because I will create all the vocals lines on the final orchestrations first (without orchestra) and then the rythmic elements etc... will be incorporated after !

Actually I plan the vocals for live performances with my vocal/scenic coach (Alone on stage and I will sing my parts and some of the the guests) ! The shows/Concert will be transcendent and professional without a doubt on every points (professional musicians, vocals, lights, sounds and many surprises) !

Just to make things clear and tell you the truth with all these liars/friends around (that cover themselves for interests) I have worked with or not ! It can end very badly if I hear false informations from people I have worked with and trusted. People who want to put themselves forward.

Musical world is more than a jungle with so many envious people. It's my project and my ideas before all ! Even if it's a team work too of course and I'm very grateful of the others work ! They have made FANTASTIC Things and the result will not be the same without them (The Budapest Symphony orchestra has transcend the whole of course) ! Nobody can said the contrary except in case of bad faith ! Some can say what they want... I still know what I did !

Emotions are the most important things for me in Art !

Far From Home (2023) curated, composed and produced by Max Enix

Team for the Double Album "Far From Home":

Max Enix: Music, Vocals, Artistic director, Actor, Lyrics/story...

Thomas Kubler: Additional arrangements, Orchestrator

Leo Margarit: Drums
Vikram Shankar: Piano/Keyboards
Jean-Jacques Moréac: Bass
Xavier Boscher: Guitars (only studio)
Elise Wachbar: Vocals (Studio)

David Castillo: Mix
Tony Lindgren: Mastering

François Rousselot : Conductor

Milo Lee: Vocal and scenic coach, photographer, Residence supervisor...

And the Future only Me (Composition, vocals, lyrics...), Thomas Kubler (orchestrations), Xavier Boscher on Guitars and maybe Jean Jacques Moreac (Bass) ! The rest will be programed ! A few guests this time ! The same for the live (Alone with sound/Lights Engineers...) !

I have written Many piano parts already before Vikram come in the project but Important to know that Vikram Shankar has reproduced/expanded and then written some additional piano parts to some songs (Derek Sherinian on 2 songs too) and of course all the fantastic musicians has written their own parts and transcend the whole (Bass, Guitars, drums, piano by following the music I have written (Piano/keyboards, strings...), the orchestrations and some indications I have given to them or not with their own way of playing) ! AWESOME Work !

A Big Thanks too to Peter Kovacs director of the Budapest symphony orchestra and all the fantastic musicians of the Budapest Symphony orchestra

*More in the commentary section below...

*For Constellia: "Secret Garden" which was a much less ambitious album, it was very different because I worked with another composer (co-composition). I had composed the themes and some passages on the synth/piano and he the rest ! He has take my piano/synth parts, has reproduced them for all songs and then create other parts/effects ! I was of course in charge of the artistic direction, lyrics, vocals, I had created most of the vocal lines (3/4)... etc !!!" All was based on my vocals lines and things added after ! Very different than now and the future !

The truth will be restored in the interviews and others !!!

Hans Zimmer Methodology: "Hans Zimmer's career has been marked by an unorthodox approach to music and film scoring and part of this lies, he thinks, in his lack of formal training. "I have no technique and I have no formal education, so the only thing I know how to write about is something that's inside of me." : Full Article: www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=1065835894200364&set=pob.100023218900400 

*EN: Forum/Hans Zimmer Way of working: I have to disagree with Christopher Smith. This is what I often hear at my music college too. I don’t like that attitude of an elite who don’t credit non-formal trained musicians or composers. Thats just rubbish and kind of jealous.

I’m not working for Hans but I know one who has and want to defend him because he deserves what he accomplished.

First, Hans writes a suite for every film at the beginning and does it totally on his own. This is then rehearsed together with the director to show Hans’ ideas about the mood of the film and will serve as a basic tune toolbox later on. It contains basically the theme of the score. All harmonies, sounds and arrangements of the suite will be “re-used” as a template for filler and underlying music. These music parts are usually composed by his co-composers and this has little to do with his ability as a composer but to deliver an incredibly big production in a very short time and to free him from “boring” tasks to be able to concentrate on the major parts of the score. - Hans never got fired from a scoring gig - the deadline thing is one reason why. Btw. other composers also have assistants who work on their scores. Hans has just more…He also works incredible hours and literally lives the film during his scoring work. He is a master at perceiving a story and capturing the feel and atmosphere of a film. This is actually THE ability a film composer must have. He is a genius in that regard.

Hans on not reading music… He can read music of course but is maybe just not as fast as a trained musician. Also sight reading might not be his strength, he reads MIDI rolls like no one else. The jealous composer can say what he wants. This is a skill and its one most classical trained composers most likely do not have. Deal with it.

Hans’ music is powered by simplicity with innovative sound design which serves the picture unbelievable good. And that is the job! Yes, his scores are no Williams tunes. But there is already a Williams. There is also a Newman and an Elfmann - you get the picture….Hans is just another kind of signature. He manages to get gigs and the movies he scored become usually hits. That speaks for him too.

And no composer orchestrates the whole score by themselves. Even John Williams writes his scores just on the piano and pass the raw piano score to his orchestrator. To claim Hans is not a real composer because he cannot orchestrate on paper is bollocks. In fact, he started the whole MIDI orchestration thing. In other words, he already orchestrates while writing the score. Just not on paper. Ok, maybe he makes some voice leading mistakes when things get complex but the orchestrater will rule that out later on - thats his job. But again, even the likes of Williams has got own orchestrators. So come on, give him what he deserves.

"Ne faites la compétition avec personne, chacun son chemin, chacun son histoire. Le vrai challenge est dans le miroir..."

On ne parle pas de sport (compétitions sportives) ou autres ici mais de comportements dans la vie de tous les jours ! Certains veulent se mettre en avant alors qu'ils font 10 fois moins que vous sur vos propres projets (par exemple) ! Ils sont envieux de votre talent et de votre créativité ! Il serai temps de stopper les gamineries, les conneries et de remettre les pendules à l'heure, surtout quand on sait réellement qui fait quoi et qu'on a la conscience tranquille par rapport à ca.  N'inversons pas les choses ! Mais certains se pensent encore et toujours au dessus des autres, de par des statuts, des compétences ou autres, à tord bien trop souvent car la créativité ne s'achète pas (on a ou on a pas tout comme l'intelligence d'ailleurs) ! Ils usent de leurs influences pour manipuler (ou se lecher le cul les uns les autres) et c 'est très très décevant, voir même écoeurant ! Ca leur monte à la tête (il faudrait qu'ils redescendent d'un étage et balayent devant leurs portes) ! Chacun son chemin, sa méthodologie et ses projets (que certains arrêtent de s'accaparer le projet des autres, à tord et ferment leurs gueules une bonne fois pour toute) ! Ras le bol des guerres d'égos !

Pour informations... Au tout début du projet "Far From Home" j'étais seul et j'ai composé l'intégralité du double Album (2h40) à la maison en 6 mois (à l'oreille avec ma propre méthodologie) au clavier (strings...)/piano et j'ai proposé, en parallèle, des indications instrumentales (rythmiques et autres), des choeurs etc... (j'ai gardé toutes les demos) ! Thomas Kubler a repris (repiqué) mes compositions intégralement et les a orchestrées puis Hugo Williame y a incorporé les rythmiques.

Exemple méthodologie:
* https://www.facebook.com/max.enix.73/videos/1198912730860152/
* https://www.facebook.com/max.enix.73/videos/436340605128249/

Pour Constellia: "Secret Garden" qui était un album bien moins ambitieux, c'était très différent car travaillé avec un autre compositeur (co-composition). J'avais composé les thèmes et certains passages au synthé/piano et lui le reste, j' étais à la direction artistique, paroles, chant, j'avais crée la majorité des lignes vocales... etc ! Il vous dira ce qui l'arrange

Max Enix "Far From Home" est beaucoup beaucoup plus ambitieux, travaillé et j'ai voulu le composer intégralement à la maison avant les orchestrations puis l'enregistrement de l'orchestre à Budapest (les partitions ont été transcrites par Victor Monteriggioni qui est le copiste) et avant que les musiciens n'ajoutent leurs parties respectives (que j'ai validé, demandé de refaire différemment ou pas) qui leur appartiennent bien entendu (Vikram Shankar a d'ailleurs composé quelques parties piano supplémentaires que je n'avais pas composé tout comme Derek Sherinian sur 2 compositions) ! Ils ont fait un travail remarquable ! J'ai aussi crée toutes les lignes vocales, les miennes et celles des guests que j'ai remodifié ensuite en fonction des orchestrations et de l'orchestre si nécessaire (certaines modifications ont été effectuées en studio sur des recommandations aussi), j'ai écris toutes les paroles et suis le directeur artistique de l'ensemble entres autres (acteur dans clips, croquis de certains dessins, idées etc...) !

Pour les concerts (la scène) il y aura des musiciens professionnels bien entendu, je serai au chant (atteint un niveau professionnel maintenant suite au travail répété/acharné, avec mon coach vocal/scénique de renommé, comme vous pourrez le voir en studio d'ailleurs) et il y aura une chanteuse professionnelle qui m'épaulera !

Video clips and Messages

MAX ENIX / FAR FROM HOME / RELEASE DATE SOON

Some new Pictures of the epic video clips to come.

Again... I am a precursor and I am not a clone like many ! I'm not here to please everyone and I won't follow the same society codes repeated over and over again even if I listen to good advices ! I won't submit, I will never pretend like many and remain myself. I will remain inhabited in all I do.

I will overcome the prevailing corruption and achieve my goals one way or another and the result will be amazing (some will fall) ! Be sure of this ! Be ready (or not) for things you have never seen or heard before !

Many don't understand me (because not in the same spiritual dimension), some are not ready for that (not disconnected enough from reality and society) and will put infinite pressure to block me !

But the majority will be ready because the world we live in must change profoundly and cannot continue like this in any cases (wars, climate, viruses, mind-numbing music and mentalities, free violence, hatred, bloody nasty people and many more...) ! We can't continue like this. It is a question of common sense and intelligence ! And you all know that (everyone can see it) ! Things have to change in this world turning upside down and Only fools don't want to change. We need to review our priorities and goes to the essential ! There is still time...

I am here to propose an alternative with this double album... Whether you like it or not... Whether you like me or not ! It's not my problem because the goal is elsewhere...

In any case the whole thing (music, vocals, story/lyrics, video clips, concept, shows...) will be revolutionary and transcendent !

Future Albums, artistic projects too (Avant Garde)...

Lots of things are coming soon...
Stay tuned
PEACE

Some people will try to block (feel targeted) but the majority will be on my side !

Hans Zimmer Methodology

21/07/2022

Hans Zimmer "How to Be a composer with no technic and no formal education" !

Fantastic article for the legendary academy -award winning composer of over 150 films (self-taught like me) Hans Zimmer's career has been marked by an unorthodox approach to music and film scoring and part of this lies, he thinks, in his lack of formal training.

"I have no technique and I have no formal education, so the only thing I know how to write about is something that's inside of me.

Being a self-taught musician, with no formal training, Zimmer said that everything he writes comes from a personal place, "and Chris knows this, and he is very crafty and taps into that."

Zimmer said that, as a composer, not having a formal background in music helped him because, "I'm never going to fall prey to using words that are incomprehensible to a director, like 'allegro'....It's about the story, and you know, how do we tell the story."

The same background as me (Max Enix) and you will see that in the "Far From Home" Double Album to come !

A lot of people probably want to piss him off or have pissed him off because of that ! But they are simply jealous of his success and his abilities ! His success they can't take away and he is one of the best composers of all time for me !

Talent or not... Emotions or not... With or without formal education ! There are 2 visions but Stop wars with that too
"Les diplômes s'obtiennent, l'intelligence (émotionnelle) pas! " Michel H.A. Patin / On a ou pas.

In conclusion... Be different and cultivate your own way, your own personality and fuck the rest !

*Forum/Hans Zimmer Way of working: I have to disagree with Christopher Smith. This is what I often hear at my music college too. I don’t like that attitude of an elite who don’t credit non-formal trained musicians or composers. Thats just rubbish and kind of jealous.
I’m not working for Hans but I know one who has and want to defend him because he deserves what he accomplished.

-Fireworks Magazine (The Biggest UK Mag) / MASTERPIECE "The whole venture be extremely rewarding ! You will requiere patience and multiple listens before the album reveals all of its secrets, but if you have the time to do so you will discover a record that is deeply affecting. Moving on the orchestral version of the Album. The rearranged versions of these songs sound like the greatest version of a Hans Zimmer or Howard Shore soundtrack from a film that you've never seen and they are richly rewarded in their own right. Sweeping and Epic. I would not be surprised if the composer was hired to produce the music for big Hollywood Blockbusters in the very near future. If there was a remake of "Lawrence of Arabia" , Enix would be the man I'd ask to do the music." ?

Excellent Review (84%) by Via Nocturna (Portugal) ! But I'm french and not Italian ! And no programmed drums on this record it's a mistake because it's Leo Margarit from Pain Of Salvation who have made brilliantly the different drums parts on the double Album !
-Orkus Magazin (De): Far From Home is called as Epic Cinematic MASTERPIECE ! "Far From Home" is like a varied adventure, so that the double album, which does not shy away from pieces of more than 10 minutes, should be enjoyed from beginning to end.

It is truly a work of Art."
-AWESOME Review 8/10 ! SoundMagnet (De) ! "Densely packed Cineastic Progressive Metal with orchestral violence. In addition to the vocals of Max Enix himself, who does a great job and is quiet varied, the female vocals are sung by Elise Wachbar and cut an equally good figure. For fans of symphonic metal with cinematic means and a lot of mass and class, Max Enix has a musical feast in store.

Excerpt: The use of male and female vocals alone brings a lot to the table, and as far as the songs are concerned, they already offer a lot of variety with their suspense arcs and both tempo and heaviness changes.
The orchestral version is what it says, the songs were recorded in orchestral style and are reminiscent of the soundtrack of the Schwarzenegger film "Conan".
In conclusion, a varied work with many twists and intelligent compositions. The entire album is worth a listen.

*Max Enix / Far From Home
One of the Best and most Ambitious Double Album ever made ! A colossus ! Expect things you've never heard / see before !

*"Trying to review this album is like trying to review a skyscraper; it doesn't care; it just keeps going! And let me be absolutely clear those are words of praise. Monstruous, Monumental. Let's just say that Far From Home is so good that I've listened to it 8 times since he shared it with us last week. It gets better with each time. It's the one album that I consider to be "perfect, I think yours may be the first -out of the more than 8,000 I've heard in the last 5 years . It gets better with each time. Since I'm in "techie-mode" now, I'll translate my praise into a number: that comparison means your is in the top 0.0119% of all the albums I've heard since the beginning of 2018. The voices are impressive. Already in the top Albums of 2023 ! A Future classic !" Between many outstanding feedback in the world !

*"Never heard since David Bowie, Pink Floyd... There is one in a million like you ! Completely in tune with our times ! An earthquake ! A double album that will change the face of the world"

*"As one continues their musical journey -a musical journey that is epic, grand, powerful, unique and magical and something different, fresh -again special and truly will capture the listener’s ears, heart and soul—simultaneously, as I was inking this review, I was so lost and transfixed with this release and with this feeling that “Far From Home” is a release where this whole thing should be played without skipping any tracks, a release to find that right moment, sit back and chill and let this musical spectrum flow through your ears and speakers.

A Universe of epic, emotional & engaging Musical Journey ”
At the same time, “Far From Home” is delivered and provided by impressive and skilled (all wrapped professionally/sophisticated arrangements) craftsmanship, musicianship and showmanship, and not just Max but a handful of guests that gives the listener this masterpiece that consists of incredible music, instrumentation, lyrics, story-concept that’s all well-executed, beautifully score and composed -where each composition/characteristics are convenient to place at the right moment. Thus, giving the listener this “Music is art, and art should know no boundaries” of Avant Garde never heard before fusion that consists of awe-inspiring multi-verse of instrumentation artistry of (technical/complex) guitar and drum work that utilises various tones, tempos, atmosphere, moods, virtuoso riffs/multi-cords, rhythms, melodic passages, various drum beats/fills and patterns, vocal work consists of multiple tones, ranges, and clean male/female singing/operatic sections. In contrast, one will find other elements within the musical spectrum/instrumental and vocals (pulls the music together!), which included progressive-symphonic-post rock/metal, film scores/sound effects with diverse aspects of world/New Age, Hip hop, Jazz, international variety and others.

A compelling and astonishing result -with a magical spark of beauty, epic, grand, bold and breathless sensation. At the same time, the Orchestral version of “Far From Home” hit me and transported me away to somewhere tranquil and the loss of time… truly the second part is unique and breathtakingly beautiful. Take a moment to listen to both versions—simultaneously, the piano work gives me that “Freddie Mercury” and sometimes, sections of the music (within the songs) give that (German acts) “Helloween/Gamma Ray” vibe -spine-chilling sensation."

*"I have checked your album "Far From Home" and wow... I have been blown away. These songs are absolutely killer...
Where to start...well for sure from the part where I say that I love it. It’s absolutely great, Symphonic and Technical but in a catchy way and tuneful.

It is very difficult to find precise influences, because the conceptual level of the compositions ranges between various stylistic strands, keeping in a very precise way, centred and very focused on a certain Symphonic Prog with a Metal vein. The project has a lot of personality, thanks also to a fluid writing and an absolutely convincing execution. The double album has no weak points thanks to unquestionable compositional skills. This is the decisive union that gives you a unique stylistic imprint that always maintains a high maturity and intensity. The songs as well as the project itself have their own specific identity that is extremely personal. The vocal work is awesome as well as all the instrumental parts. Guitars, orchestrations, keyboards and rhythm section are powerful and they do a great job in the composition and arrangements. An epic project full of quality ideas, lyrics and sounds are highly researched and original. I haven't listened to a record of this sound matrix for a long time.

There’s quite a lot of variation in the songs but it sounds like a solid album and doesn’t sound like a compilation....This means that you are really mature songwriting-wise. The level of the album is always high, (from the beginning to the end) and there are no boring or low moments. I think that your style and sound are quite original. A combination of many, ranging from Symphonic Prog to Technical and more Metal influences, but I can’t relate you to any other act in particular and this is a great point, this means that you sound unique. Professional production, recordings and mix....Well done, I really like your product! We can absolutely talk further."

Max Enix "Far From Home" is a fusion of progressive-symphonic-post rock/metal , filmscore with diverse elements of world/New Age, Hip hop, Jazz, international variety and others (Avant Garde never heard before) ! For Fans of Devin Townsend, Dream Theater, Hans Zimmer, Pain of Salvation, Opeth, Ayreon, Enigma, Era, Therion, Nightwish, Rhapsody, Pink Floyd, Anathema, Freddie Mercury, David Bowie, Katatonia, Empyrium, Arcturus, Marillion and many many others But with a Universe of its own (Beyond music and words) ! EPIC AND UNIQUE ! Stay tuned <3

I consider myself as a precursor like many artists in the world and the goal is to change some aspects of this society ! I have my Own Vision ! Staying humble in what you do is the key !

*This concept album will be completely in tune with today’s world and what might happen, the consequences to come... It will deal with the beauty of Life..., the human condition, will be turned towards spirituality and will also denounce the human stupidity on certain points and the actions not to be reproduced any more (the corruption, the conditioning, the oppression, sick communautarism, indoctrination, thirst and abuse of power, abusive interests, the tyranny, the exploitation, the forced work, the domination, the law of « do or die », the religious fanaticism, mythomania, the poisoned thrones of bastards, the divisions, the violence, the fake news, data use, the blindness, the I don't care attitudes etc...)

*I hope that people will come to realize through this project how bad, fake and nasty some humans can be around.

*2 totally different listening experiences (Original and Orchestral) :
*Digipack Original Double Album Version with 48pages Booklet. 2h39 of Music.
*Digipack Orchestral Version (3CDS with exclusive sounds FX). 2h45 of Music. End of the year...

*EPIC and cinematic/symphonic music for fans of Devin Townsend, Hans Zimmer, Dream Theater, Opeth, Ayreon... For fans of MUSIC ! But with a Universe on its own !

*Very epic compositions this time, but it will be very different from one album to another.

*Concept Album with elaborate story and lyrics (around 2h40 of music for each versions)

*Dream Theater (leader of the progressive rock/metal scene) won a Grammy Awards for a 10min epic composition called "The Alien" ahead of Gojira, Deftones, Rob Zombie, Mastodon...! Very epic and long songs are their trademark so it's a very good moment for epic songs like these ones (Hans Zimmer or others).

*Beautiful Illustration here by Thomas Ewerhard. Thomas have made Wonderful illustrations and is currently finalizing the beautiful booklet.
Niklas Sundin: Max Enix Logo

*This double album recorded with the Budapest symphony orchestra will offer a unique sound and atmosphere and will mix different genres (film score, progressive , post and symphonic rock/metal, world music/new age, Jazz, international variety, hip hop among other sounds...
With much more Epic, Emotional, engaged and complex/hard songs this time than before.

*This universe is one of a kind:
modern, futuristic,
hard, avant-garde, but also poetic, mysterious, romantic, enigmatic...
Day and Night/ From the shadows to the light

*I have composed all this album alone, by myself this time on keyboard (strings...), piano among others (12 long tracks including the last one of 26min and 2 intros CD 1 and CD 2. There will be different video clips...

*No I'm not a music theory expert like many... I have my own methodology like Hans Zimmer and many others and I know how to call on the right people to accompany me on my artistic adventures ! My artistic universe is wide and unique ! Emotions are the most important things for me in Art ! But some people don't understand that... And beware of people who want to put themselves forward, wrongly and cover themselves (envious because they don't have your talent and who take you for idiots, that they are ! Fuck them! ) ! Protect your world ?

*"City of Mortals" epic video clip (3D with Unreal Engine) will be against corruption, Power Abuse, Fake news and others in our society.... An alternative version will be made too with some strong images in a more horrific and Avant garde way. In July 2023...

*"Tears of Earth" epic video clip / In this ambitious Video clip (3D with Unreal Engine) you will see the beauty of nature, the elements together, the cosmos, the Earth and the planets/galaxies around, the space conquest, the creation and some very enigmatic and mysterious things ! View from above embodied by other intelligences beyond humans... Against the humans who wants to destroy the environment with machines, unnecessary wars, domination, stupid trivialities and others that leads to chaos... In August 2023

*The whole "Far From Home" double Album (2h40) will be illustrated with lyrics and Enigmatic/mysterious/Avant Garde images behind (shadows puppets, Chinese shades...) !

*Live/concerts video clips will be made for the following songs "Prayer of the Gods" and "Angels of the Apocalyptic Storm" normally during the release party of this epic double Album. The complete "Far From Home" double Album will be played during these shows (Live DVD/Blu Ray later). All will be professionnal (Vocals, Musicians, Images, Lights, Stage play...) !

*I am self-taught like many composers (Hans Zimmer, Danny Elfman and others...), singer and artists and write everything by ear.

*I promise you some sophisticated arrangements, concerning the vocal lines, the lyrics, the whole story, the videos... STUDIO and LIVE (Everyone will be more than ready) ! Fantastic shows/concerts are coming with transcendent and professional vocals, musicianship and others...
Transcendent albums, video clips, shows/concerts (vocals, musicians, stage performance, images, lights, sounds...) are coming ! Everything is thought-out down to the very last detail ! Everything must be close to perfection ! I will not tolerate anything less than that !

-Bandcamp link and other plateforms to listen the first album "SECRET GARDEN", see the album booklet and read the lyrics: https://constellia.bandcamp.com/releases...

*Lots of things are coming ! Video clips, Reviews, press, Interviews, playthrough, Goodies with wonderful illustrations and original things, radio, movies, collaborations (vocals and others) as guest, film score, music games, US reality show (TV), Epic Shows/Tour with professional vocals, musicians..., DVD Live with the whole double Album played, A wide variety of albums very very different from each others (concept album in general or not, movie oriented with strong story in general, epic or not, more metal or not, hard or calm, with orchestra or not, with (famous) guests or not, with engaged lyrics or not...), many other things/surprises... !

*EN: Heartfelt thanks to David Castillo (Studio Gröndahl/Fascination street studios) and all his team who supported him (Linus Corneliusson, Thomas Plec Johansson, Eduardo Belchior... ) for the extraordinary mix work on the Max Enix "Far From Home" double album to come in Autumn 2022 (normally) ! It transcends everything... Phenomenal ! David Castillo is an exceptional sound engineer and it's really hard to work on a project like this one !

More than 5h20 of mix with the original double Album (2h39) and the triple bonus Album (orchestra, piano, sounds FX only of about 2h45) for the people who will buy the digipack version. 2 completely different and deep listenings.

The mastering will normally be finalized by Tony Lindgren (Fascination street studios) before July 10th...

Reviews, Interviews soon...

The booklet will contain beautiful illustrations, the complete story/script (very sophisticated lyrics) and many surprises. The important thing is that you get what you pay for !

4 fantastic video clips are planned (one of which I play an important and inhabited role as an actor, possessed in a mansion) as well as 1 or 2 live ones and all the compositions of the double album will be illustrated in video and images by an amazing Israeli artist I will tell you about soon. Powerful images and videos about the world (and not only) that will leave a mark ! Avant Garde

The goodies will follow with some nice original surprises too...

Label announcement very soon !

The shows and the tours will be announced soon and everything will be worked on in the smallest details to be sure that the result will be the best possible. I promise you that everything will be transcendent (vocals, instrumental parts, images, lights, sounds, stage play...) ! We will play the whole double album on stage (2h39) ! A real rock opera that will break the established codes in a spiritual way. The divine guides those who believe !

Never heard and never seen before! Together let's make music history my friends and change the musical landscape for a better world !

Intro reviews

12/06/2022

Max Enix : Far From Home - Double Concept Album (Autumn 2022) / Already great reviews on the intro "The End of an Era" (Final version before the mix) ! People (very) recognized in the field among others. In this kind of music or not. Thanks to all those who have listened and gave me feedback or not ! The mix and mastering will transcend the whole. For the moment the great majority like it so I am happy but Of course it's a matter of taste too and some people don't like or will not like some aspects too ! Freedom and respect !

Some Intro Reviews (original version # Orchestral version):

*Sounds very monumental, dramatic and highly professional!... it's more relevant now than ever....

*Sounds excellent and love how powerful the vocals are! "

*Wow! That was incredible! Quite the journey! Loved all of the layers but especially the vocals and keyboards.

*Wow killer man.... love it

*I love it it's brilliant , you have a great voice.

*Nice job already with this pre-mix, it's going to be a Dantesque album!

*"I can hear influences of Pink floyd, Porcupine tree and Nightwish.its nice "

*Oh man, this is great! Big and beautiful Job

*Ooo damn this is really cool / Epic! This sounds massive

*very very cool stuff man

*This is AMAZING!!! I'm in love

*This is cool! Nice voice work.

*Definitely sounds interesting - goes into various realms -

*I like the intro / Has some Tool vibes to it...

*It looks very interesting, thank you. I like tribal sounds mixed with metal.

*Great music! I really love it

*Thank you for the wonderful music??

*Very powerful it made me feel thousands of emotions and it's really an excellent job...

*There's a lot of work behind it, it's a promise for the album. We can feel that there is a lot of work on your album, don't give up !

*Hi Max, impressive the means deployed for your album !

*It sounds great, the atmospheres are really excellent.

*Sounds really impressive

*This intro is crazy

*Wow! Really very interesting!

*Entre, les voix doublées, la voix féminine, ta voix en solo, le ping pong voix (masculine-féminine), la guitare solo mélodique (très fort) qui accompagne le chant avec des mini solos (qui sont techniquement très fort),
la multitude d'instruments qui se mélangent très bien à mon sens.
C'est du bon boulot et c'est prometteur.
Un côté Dream Theater dans certaines parties (en moins bourrin).
Tout ceci est très "orchestral", je ne sais pas si c'est ce qui est recherché. J'ai eu plaisir à écouter cette intro, vous avez tous un sacré niveau !

*This is absolutely amazing!
Fantastic work and writing, incredible man!!!
Very epic sounding,

*Great job Max, very good music with many elements I loved the background piano.

**And many many others... Very Good / Excellent/Great/Amazing/Love the music and vocals... Track sounds really really cool... Very Awesome/Wonderful music/ J'aime Beaucoup/ Magnifique.../Thank you for wonderful message and music/Powerful stuff...

This is in addition to the wonderful opinions I got from the people involved in the double album (Guests...) who qualified some compositions as masterpieces (even when it was far from the definitive version) ! Thank you from the bottom of my heart 

The reviews of the complete double album, among others, are coming very soon... Thanks to all the musicians and others involved in this project, Thank you for your support and I hope you enjoy the full story and all !
