Max Cooper - Unspoken Words - Atmos Blu-ray immersive release

Max Cooper has released his latest album, “Unspoken Words,” on the Pure Audio Blu-ray format, featuring a 48kHz / 24-bit Dolby Atmos and 2.0 LPCM Stereo 48kHz / 24bit high resolution mix. The deftly mixed audio is accompanied by a visual story which unfolds through 13 short films by a range of visual artists commissioned and directed by Cooper. It is a meditative meta-narrative about the artists’ inner struggle for expression and our collective journey to find our place in the world.

Speaking about the inspiration for the album Cooper says, “I’ve always struggled with words, trying to communicate anything meaningful about my internal state, in any way which seems to do it justice, has always been beyond me. But music bypasses language. It is my means of expression, which is why I make a lot of it - I’m compelled to create.”

The album is filled with emotions ranging from beautiful, to sometimes intense, sometimes abrasive, and even messy. Reflecting on the 1980’s and 1990’s the album’s first single, “Everything,” is inspired by the idealism of popular culture of that era. Cooper goes on to comment, “I love feeling that anything is possible, it feels like I’m bursting and need to find some expression. The synths seemed to carry the hope of everything I could imagine, condensed into the simple chord progression, improvised pads, and layers of distortion.”

Released Mar 25, 2022.
