Don't know the colour, sorry!

A: http://www.bangingtunes.com/play/maxmin50/a/
B: http://www.bangingtunes.com/play/maxmin50/b/

Both sides are pretty good, but the B / minimum side does it most for me.

Max Min - Bullet Train innit ??? No colour this time.
Typical Max Min - you can read into that what you want ;)

[The Germ]

Nah, it ain't Bullet Train...

[analog tactic]

I was expecting a much better release being that it was this labels 50th. which should be something to celebrate, still a good tune non the less. I'd buy it when i land on my financial feet again.

[groover'z]

Classic Silver I think!!

[Aratron]

shite brown i think

[Aratron]

with one or two classic exceptions on the whole i think , Max Min has done nothing at all for the Acid techno scene imo, other than cheapen it. If i go to a decent vinyl shop , you can see the shelves groaning under the weight of unsold max/mins, there i had to get that off my chest . . .


i'll get my coat then

:lol:

harsh...
but damn true. i always see either max min, pounding grooves or 4x4...dont get me wrong though...few tunes on all 3 have been ok...few...and ok...thats all though

just not my slice 'o cake

[Si the Sigh]

Harsh! :lol:

But I like harsh, and if thats your opinion then fair do's innit.

Why do you think that though? I have to say some of the releases, ok, a lot of the releases in the past have been weak, but theres been some fu*king monsterous tunes released on Max Min. Swarfiga has never EVER left my box, and the 3 or 4 that came after that were huge IMO.

It's always been a bit of a weird label, and deffo more filler than killer.

Still to this day I don't think I've ever heard anyone play a Min side though.

They should Max it out all the time. ;)

All down to personal taste at the end of the day innit. Don't agree with you in the slightest about Pounding Grooves though, thats one label I fricking LOVE! :blush:

4X4 is listen at home material for me, I've got them all to date and do really like them, but don't think i've ever mixed a 4X4 track. I find bar a few releases by certain artists I'd rather listen to the tracks whilst stroking my mini beard.

All down to personal taste as I said.

[dan the acid man]

max min has tried to do things a little differently though in that acid techno genre it gets lumped with, which i respect, and a few releases have been really fresh sounding imo of course, but on a whole i can't say i've bought that many

i think si you don't remember SPUNK one
:techno:

min side on this one is great!!

:eyes:

[christian wagner]

I think recent Max Mins have been really good, clockwork orange wasnt my cuppa, but limehouse green was fat, shit day sloppy brown was a bit cack, midnight black was good, and copper was excellent, both sides are offer something diffenrent. bit of everything on the lable!!

Not sure about bullet train, seems pointless having 2 of the same track on 1 slab.

I bought one in 2004 which was purple i think, and that was pretty cool, if somewhat different, its a very experimental lable tho, depends what your after tbh. if your gonna compare it to full on 303 squeelers then ya not gonna take to them!!!

[tOM B]

i just can't get into max min, i respect the fact it's trying to do something different but can't seem to find a tune i like. I own a few and have never played one out so now i just tend to give them a miss. Raw i think release some wicked tunes but most of them are very samey, i really love pounding grooves and i can't get enough of 4x4 at the moment

Horses for courses innit?

maybe i was a bit harsh.
i havent listened to all the tunes on max/min, i just thought they sounded really boring mostly. i did buy Penetration Pink by Ant whuch is brilliant. i also thought that the sleeve and the cover design was unimaginative and boring aswell imo
amd i think a lot of them havent aged well

[Si the Sigh]

I do agree with you when you say "I think a lot of them haven't aged well"

The production on some of the Max Min's is really poor IMO and makes the tracks sound pretty duff.

[imported_sicknote]

at the end o the day its all about slices o cake.... :) you either do or you dont with them.
but you were right si in saying that max/min is kinda the techno you listen to at home stroking beards and all sorts but just not the sort of stuff thats really driving and stuff....basically acid techno really :cheese:


:techno:

[Si the Sigh]

I love cake.
