DJ Max Klaw

Bio

Klaw fell in love with music, recording sound and the visual arts at an early age. Exposed to Jazz, Rock, R&B, Soul and Experimental music by his father Bill Goodwin a prolific Jazz drummer, Grammy award winner and record producer. Hitting the road with bands his father was playing in forged a strong bond of rhythm, composition and arrangement in the young guys mind. Klaw says of those times, "I would be out at gig with my father at the Blue Note, Sweet Basil, SOB’s and other jazz dens in NYC and these jazz cats would just be blowing me away with the improvisations and attitude, then I would fall asleep backstage in the stand up bass case.
Klaw experienced allot growing up in NYC and in the sticks of NE Pennsylvania, Hardcore Punk Rock and early Hip-Hop being his focus because of the raw energy, DIY attitude and just how loud and pissed off that shit sounded.
