MAX VANREMMERDEN
A non pretentious do it yourself home recording autodidact from Amsterdam, Holland.
Inspired by the attitude and philosophy by musicians like Jonathan Richman, Billy Bragg, Evan Dando, Joe Strummer and Ryan Adams on how to approach the creative process of making music results in a very unique singer/songwriter style.
A loosely played repertoire of plain tunes.
The lyrics deal with confusion, doubt, self mockery, emotion, sincerity, the split seconds we weigh up the pros and cons in everyday life decisions and the flies in the ointment in our existence. Member of the Amsterdam Songwriters Guild

PRESS
La copertina di questo disco ha uno sfondo bianco con al centro un pupazzo della LEGO con i capelli lunghi biondi ed un bel chitarrone in mano. Trattasi della ironica rappresentazione ludica di Evan Dando, il biondissimo cantante dei sottovalutati Lemonheads e l’oggetto del cd tributo in questione. Questo cd lo si può acquistare direttamente sul sito www.evandando.co.uk ed il 35% dei profitti andranno alla ricerca contro il cancro. Alla compilation non partecipano nomi di spicco, ma questo non è tanto importante. Ciò che qui importa è lo spirito dell’iniziativa e la assoluta qualità di alcune reinterpretazioni proposte da questi semisconosciuti: Being Around con la (bella) voce e chitarra di Jason Appleby, Rancho Santa Fe rifatta in chiave dreamy da Lizze London, una irresistibile electro-banjo-clash Style di Max Vanremmerden , It’s About Time è troppo simile all’originale e senza il controcanto di Juliana Hatfield perde troppo fascino, ma Tenderfoot sembra rifatta dagli Husker Du e Hospital dai Franz Ferdinand. Fatevi spremere.

Lieve mensen er zijn nog plekken vrij voor Club Canape, 27 November een mooi huiskamerfestival. Het concept, een huiskamer die omgetoverd wordt tot muziekpodium waarin de mensen dicht op elkaar naar drie artiesten luisteren in een akoestische set, bestaat al lang en levert altijd mooie, intieme avonden op. Je zit als het ware op de schoot van de muzikant. De avond waar ik je nu voor uitnodig heeft een mooie programmering. Line up: Robin Block, Noam Vazana en Anne Roos Rosa de Carvalho. Het concept werkt alleen met van tevoren gereserveerde plekken. Dus wil je de 27ste een mooie avond muziek ga dan naar de volgende link en reserveer met een simpele mail plekken:
Hey Max, Helaas heb ik je zet gisteravond bij Jet Lounge gemist!!.... wilde wel komen maar kon uiteindelijk niet... de usual reasons!!! Was vastwel een mooie zet toch? Tot snel groet Roger
Ik had nog niet goed naar je myspace liedjes geluisterd, maar nu ik ernaar luister.. Wat heerlijk :) Vooral voor het gevoel dat ik momenteel heb, het werkt kalmerend en rustgevend.
Hoe gaat het met je! Ik zie dat je een mooi optreden in de Jetlounge in het verschiet hebt, mooi voor je! Ik werk helaas die avond, maar nodig je graag eens uit voor de Kade, zodat ik je daar kan zien en horen.
Ik luisterde nog eens naar het filmpje van 'Some Mistakes' en kwam er weer eens achter wat een prachtig nummer dat is. Die blonde op de sax doet het wel aardig, maar dat kan beter hoor. Ik hoop het ooit nog eens te mogen doen!
Net een paar van je liedjes beluisterd.... nu kan ik ze niet uit mijn hoofd krijgen!! I'm gonna get myself something just like it one day.....la la la la la la!!!!!!!!! ;)
Hiya! Check out my latest efforts on MySpace Player and also –at higher sound quality (320kps) on the “Soundlick” player in my “Blog” section. Most are demos but I will be putting up my previous CD release for free soon.
Hit me up for possible musical collaborations –or feel free to leave comments about your own projects etc.
Mick and I are playing a gig of covers and Originals at Molly Malones Oude Zijds Kolk, near Zeedijk on Friday 16th October at 21 30 ATTENTION ALL SONGWRITERS- we want to start a weekly open stage with food, drinks and expenses PLease come and support this venue
Please be informed that G. Wood/Undercover Bonobos have posted a new song entitled "Seeds" on their Myspace music player. We strongly advise that you review this material carefully. Your commentary is welcomed.
Analysis: We have been informed that this song sounds like a Communist Collective work song. We are further advised that it may be misconstrued as a treatise on the cultivation of illegal herbage. We are cautioned that some listeners may experience a shift in psychological set and setting during the "psychedelic" interlude. Please report any activity of this nature forthwith.
This song may be intended and interpreted as a tribute to the late, great, Sky Saxon.
We gratefully anticipate your thoughts on this matter.
Hey Max alles oke? Ja ja EP gaat heel mooi worden, we hebben 'live' opgenomen hup in 1 take. De voorlopige proefmix van de songs die we nu thuis doorspitten klinkt heel fris en natuurlijk. Wordt vervolgd ha ha ha, veel groeten jongen
Hey Max... I know you're playing tonight and I said I'd be there, but I'm looking out my window at a pretty wet and windy night and I'm thinking perhaps I'll head along in spirit only. The spirit is willing but the body doesn't wanna get wet!
Hey Max thanks a lot man. It is always hard leaving a place! Everyone has been so good to me! Thanks for everything! Might see you again when I am back in Amsterdam :)
