I guess its not the reason. they use different names on minus cause the label whats that to happen..

example: " Reagen release on Minus tommorrow! "

" almost every label that have already released reagen will release reagens tracks on compilations next week! "

from "then" or "them"? either way you are still listening to old material. tractile was over a long time ago. maybe you are referring to new things by joel?...

you forgot about the secret handshakes and blood rituals.

this thread would be more interesting if it involved some wierd gangland minimal mafia turfwars with bodies of producers turning up in ditches& warehouses with m_nus calling cards.

well, obviously it would kinda suck, what with the murders and all. but it would at least be a thead with 20+ pages of replies about minus that actually deserved it.

i like most m_nus stuff too, maybe i was just thinking too much. As i said its maybe not only the case at m_nus, i was only using it as an example but now this thread is already going to a m_nus love or hate topic, it wasnt ment to be like this.

Delete it then :D

pff, whatever, for all I care Hawtin is secretly the puppet master behind the financial crisis, I think people just want to know too much about the labels and artists and such, while they should only care about the music. That's all what really matters.

(that's why I don't follow Minus that much anymore, I wish instead of sitting on the tracks for a year or more, they would release it quicker, so it all didn't sound so dated by the time they show up on beatport. But that's their choice of course)
