Built on an ongoing output rooted in intuition, improvisation, and process-driven methodology, his work occupies a distinctive position within the contemporary American avant-garde. Situated at the intersection of contemporary composition, electroacoustic music, and sound studies, his discography spans more than 100 releases on labels worldwide, including in Japan, and includes repeated collaborations with Japanese improvisation and avant-garde artists Hiromichi Sakamoto, Shoji Hano, and Ryuichi Yoshida.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRESISTANCE, composed in 2026, is realized here as a solo electric guitar performance by Devereaux himself. Rather than conventional narrative, the work is a speculative and lucid sonic study emphasizing modes of sound production, sustained attention, and the materiality of time. Its graphic score, written for unspecified instrumentation or ensemble, preserves the singular intensity and identity of the piece while remaining open to solidarity and variation across boundaries.\u003cbr\u003e[The graphic score for this work is included in the booklet.]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRESISTANCE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMax Devereaux, \u003c\/strong\u003eComposition and solo electric guitar realization (2026)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e[1]　 RESISTANCE I: TENSION\u003cbr\u003e[2]　 RESISTANCE II: DURATION\u003cbr\u003e[3]　 RESISTANCE III: FRICTION\u003cbr\u003e[4]　 RESISTANCE IV: FEEDBACK\u003cbr\u003e[5]　 RESISTANCE V: CONSTRAINT\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstrument: PRS Custom 22\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecording: March 1, 2026, at Ethan Elseth’s home studio, Minneapolis\u003cbr\u003eEngineering and Session photography: \u0026nbsp;Ethan Elseth\u003cbr\u003eMixing, Mastering, Notes and Cover photography: Max Devereaux\u003cbr\u003eJapanese translation and Booklet editing: Kensuke Fujii\u003cbr\u003eDesign: Eek if I junk us.\u003cbr\u003eProduction: ALM RECORDS\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ALM RECORDS \/ コジマ録音","offers":[{"title":"CD + Lossless WAV (44.1kHz 16bit)","offer_id":52415315673371,"sku":"ALM-149","price":3300.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false},{"title":"Lossless WAV (44.1kHz 16bit)","offer_id":52415315706139,"sku":"ALM-149-WAV44k16b","price":2640.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false},{"title":"Hi-Res FLAC (48kHz 24bit)","offer_id":52415315738907,"sku":"ALM-149-FLAC48k24b","price":3300.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0865\/7862\/6843\/files\/ALM149.jpg?v=1782697836","url":"https:\/\/kojimarokuon.com\/en\/products\/alm-149","provider":"ALM RECORDS \/ コジマ録音","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
