Waxamilion

Max "Waxamilion" Dornauer is an Austrian musician with a penchant for technicality and genre fluidity. A jazz-trained guitarist, Max has been developing his craft since the age of six whilst living in the Alps. He has since garnered a cult following through his DIY project Waxamilion, and has collaborated with the likes of Forrest Rice (Covet), Stephen Taranto (The Helix Nebula), Richard Henshall (Haken), Wes Thrailkill (Thrailkill), Travis Orbin (Periphery, Cartoon Theory), Ben Rosett (Strawberry Girls) and Dan James Griffin. Stylistically, Max blends together the cool poise of RnB with the vivacity and immediacy of progressive rock and metal. He challenges listeners with angular and bombastic guitar lines but his additional layers of cohesive hip-hop beats mean that the sound never strays into cacophony. Max treats these seemingly disparate musical elements with care and precision, and the result is nothing short of spectacular.
