Content
applied communications bites the big one, nine-track LP by Max Wood as applied communications (September 25, 2026). Washington, D.C. It follows the 2024 comeback EP and the singles after it. Wood's release post calls it his first new LP in about 20 years.
Mixed by Luke Francis Walton (Scoobert Doobert). Mastered by Riley Knapp. Those engineer lines are Wood's, not the review's. Posting as @appl.comm, he names @scoobertdoobert.pizza mixing engineer, "whose creativity and thoughtfulness made each song he touched an entirely new - and always better - thing," and @riley__knapp mastering engineer (transcript). Bandcamp's album page lists the date and the nine tracks; it does not print the engineer credits. Track 5, cowboy bebop & eric's trip, already carried them on its own Bandcamp page when it came out as a single (May 27, 2026): written, performed, and recorded by Max Wood; mixed by Scoobert Doobert; mastered by Riley Knapp.
Bandcamp Daily made the album its Album of the Day on release day (Luke Jackson, September 25, 2026). Bandcamp selected the album. The review does not name Walton. It points at butcher, gracie mansion comfort zone, and return of jafar.
The same post thanks @barnonerecords for help putting the record out, @terrorbirdmedia and @geosushigourmet for helping people find it, and @emperorx for help finishing it. Those are Wood's thanks. They are not Walton credits.
Luke did not write these lyrics: mixing credit only (not produce).
