Take a headfirst plunge into MAX RAD's sultry pop on new track "Carousel"

26 June 2018, 16:00 | Written by Cerys Kenneally

London's MAX RAD weaves velvety vocals with sultry, submerged synths on dreamy debut track "Carousel".

Entwined with funk-tinged warps that feel like you're coming out of a short vertigo spell, MAX RAD contradicts the romantic instrumentals with the track's meaning.

The underlying tone is undeniably seductive, and contrasts with the realisation that the relationship described in the track is one-sided.

Explaining new track "Carousel", MAX RAD stated, "This is not a love song, it's about power - a woman toying with a boy's infatuation for her. He can't see he's being played like a fool.”

Layered with silky harmonies and a slow-groove beat, MAX RAD takes flight, and makes the complications of building a relationship seem a distant memory.

MAX RAD's "Carousel" will leave you tied round his finger, and is available on 27 June.
