Max Miecchi (born Massimiliano Miecchi, 2 May 1960 in Ancona, Marche, Italy) is an Italian music and video maker, a visual/web designer, a photographer and an engineer.

As a boy, between the age of 14-15, Max worked as a seasonal waiter to get enough money to buy an acoustic guitar, and quit soon the job once he had it. Max spent his green years traveling around Europe, living for some months in Sweden, Germany, Netherlands. In 1984, at the age of 24, he teamed up with Marco Bruno, founding Devoice. Marco was coming from a band experience with Hyra (formerly Hydra), which became later Via Verdi (for several weeks in 1985 on the Italian Top Charts, with the hit “Diamond”). However, Marco left Italy to live in Canada, and the Devoice experience ended soon. Some years later Max restarted his studies and became Master of Science in Engineering (the main reason was to make his parents happy). However, his curiosity moved him toward differents interests: photography, web, writing, music. As a photographer, he was winning several awards with his reportages from China, Cuba and Maroc. In 2009 Max was successfully operated for a meningioma, and during the period of time spent in the hospital, he decided that he would have done only what he really liked. So he decided to publish all his music production (which he kept until that moment on his Mac) and give it out to the web. During 2011 he published his first album (Anecoic), containing also some sounds from the Devoice experience. This album has been soon followed during 2011 by the second one (Oceanic), containing the song “Send My Eyes To Summerville”. The titles of the 2 albums are anagrams.
