Date of birth: 11.10.1982.«Music is eternal, life is only a moment» - this statement entirely concerns to Max. His performances are artworks, only a slight motion can add a shade in the general spirits of a set, driving into ecstasies admirers of his talent or people who accidently got to his playing. S.K.A.M. has shown himself as a DJ and musician with his own sound that a versed listener would know by the first tones. We cannot disregard his carefully selecting tracks for his performances, very scarce and fresh material. Max tries not to use main stream hits, instead he offers the tracks that instead of being not so well-known delights the connoisseur of club music. He is always hip to the development of the dance industry in the world, and thanks to that his sound is always relevant.Max formation as a creative individual began when he was fifteen, and when he was seventeen he started playing at night clubs. Since 1997 till 2001 he preferred House & Speed Garage music, but then he took an interest in Progressive House.Since 1999 his enthusiasm for music gradually developed into something more, S.K.A.M. began working on his own tracks. Max takes the best that has ever been created in the music world (such styles as house, progressive, electro, tech-house) and assumes it as the basis of his tracks and remixes. His works potted since 2005 till 2006 were later released on the label, which was established by DJ FLASH – “Flash Recordsâ€.

Taking part in Dub Town project he recorded several tracks with DJ Danila. These tracks received powerful backing from European and Russian musicians and DJs. The remix on Freza & DJ Flash – “Groovy House“, which was released in Spain on the label “Synergy Recordings†also received favorable reviews. The owner of this label is a famous producer and DJ Karim Haas. In 2007 “Freak Out Of You EP†was released on the “Moscow Dancefloor Records“. The remix on the much-talked-of track from the cult British producer D.Ramirez and Dmitry Bobrov - “Pleasure Me†– was also made at that time.
The tracks S.K.A.M. take a worthy place in charts and sets famous DJs: Pete Tong (on radio-show) and sound on radio stations: “Megapolis FM†(Moscow), “ETN FM†(USA), BBC Radio 1 (UK) and many other things.
