Spring 2025

Spring 2025 by MAX SEASON is an innovative electronic track that takes risks with its melodic concepts as much as it does with its production style. Many track’s melodic identities feel like different angles of a cohesive whole whereas this song feels like all these different sonic ideas coming together. The joy is in the way they interact with one another. It feels like these personalities are morphing and folding together. The track is effectively a conversation between synths instead of a traditional composition. It excels at the edges of its sonic landscape.

There is an incredible deep synth that follows the composition with this rich, droning confidence. It rounds out the sound of the track while also providing this beautiful sonic fuzz through its distortion that you can really sink your teeth into as a listener. It gives the track a charisma that heightens the other aspects with its juxtaposing presence. On the other end of the melodic scale is this high register synth. More mobile, this synth explores the high end of the melodic scale with runs and trills that expand the track’s sound. Their timbre is bright and shiny, providing a dance partner to the rubbery depth of the other synth. On top of this high register synth is a more traditional melody that pushes in and out of the track in sections. While also maintaining a bold and bright melodic register, this aspect feels more dynamic, unpredictable, and explosive. A tonal polar opposite to the depth and consistency of the bass below. Another very clever tactic is the use of silence to break expectation and as a rhythmic device within itself, subverting the pattern of the track and heightening the sound in the process. This technique, to me, highlights the confidence and experience of the producer behind the song. In the end, it is their dedication to their vision that makes this track unique and exciting to listen to. They have done something entirely new with Spring 2025 that deserves your attention.
