Seasoned LA-based producer Max Foreman is set to release his newest single on April 3rd. Letter of Resignation is a sardonic ode to leaving a toxic work environment. Drawing from the brass arrangements of legends like Burt Bacharach and Stevie Wonder, his synth surrealism brings to mind contemporaries like Mac DeMarco.
Criminally smooth touches of jazz collide with psychedelic tones on Max Foreman’s new single “Letter of Resignation”. Over a bed of warping melodies and lush horn sections, Foreman writes from a perspective we can all relate to while filtering his thoughts through his songwriting prowess. The arrangement takes on many forms, from the droning synths that drive the verses to the soaring harmonies that assist the catchy hook, Foreman made a tour de force of a new single. “Letter of Resignation” is a catchy, warping take on modern pop and introduces Max Foreman as an exciting young voice whose refusal of sonic complacency makes his music palpable and vibrant.
“‘Letter of Resignation’ is a sardonic song about quitting a toxic work environment. It has sonic elements of immersive psychedelia and synth surrealism, with a slow-burning funk rhythm section underneath,” explains Foreman on his latest single. “It’s a love letter to every former employer you wished you could tell off.” If you want something a little more personal to the track, I can get that as well.”
