Montreal bedroom pop artist maxime. has been one of the (unofficial) Chief Vibe Providers at CLOUT for some time now, with his eclectic sounds and catchy melodies whirring around our collective head more often than not. The artist has been building a stellar collection of tracks over the last few years that continue to highlight the uniqueness and fun of his sound, rarely, if ever dipping in quality or charm.

The latest release from the exciting artist is ‘talk 2 me’, a track that showcases his sound at its most smooth and slick, almost taking on an R&B style that melds effortlessly with his trademark brand of self-production. Throughout the track, whether through his engaging vocals or the nuanced beats that guide you throughout, there is just an effortless sense of coolness that is at its core. The track takes a turn for the more hard-edged and rock-influenced towards the end, incorporating distorted guitars and an increased sense of urgency, but the track’s charismatic edge never gives way for anything throughout.
