2001年,當Kinetic唱片宣布Max Graham為其第四張Transport Mix CD混音制作人后,DJ界似乎已經(jīng)看到了一顆新星的誕生。因為負責(zé)該專輯的前三位DJ都是業(yè)界極負盛名的重量級人物,分別是Paul Oakenfold,Dave Ralph和Sandra Collins。而Max也沒讓Kinetic唱片和他的前輩們失望,transport Mix第四張專輯當年即進入DJ Magazine的Top 100,排名23位,是當年新出唱片排名最高的一張。Paul Oakenfold在聽過這張專輯后更親自邀請Max參加他從美國到Ibiza的巡回演出。Max迅速地崛起與其創(chuàng)作的天分是分不開的,他的原創(chuàng)曲"Airtight"同時被Tiesto和Oakenfold收錄在各自的精選混音碟中,受歡迎程度可見一斑。
廣泛地選擇各類舞曲以及獨特的混音技巧,讓人很難將Max的音樂風(fēng)格進行分類,但可以肯定的是絕對令人瘋狂,因為由Max主持的SHINE派對每次都能令 來自世界各地的Clubber們跳上十個鐘頭后還不愿離去。進入2004年。Max推出了自己的第一張大碟"Shine",同時也成立了自己的音樂廠牌"Shinemusic"。Shine---可能這就是Max對自己音樂的總結(jié),也代表了一種全新的極致浦感。
Canadian DJ Max Graham started as a cut and scratch DJ before he switched to the genre of trance and progressive house. Starting at the turntables in 1986 at 15, Graham went from cut and scratch to house, at a time when house music was going through a renaissance period. Around 1992, when progressive house was at its beginning stages, Graham was exposed to the sounds of BT and Underworld. He was inspired by the selections of DJs like Paul Oakenfold and Sasha and decided to turn his music attention to spreading their sound throughout Canada. Though trance was spreading in Europe, only a few DJs were playing it in Canada. Though it took a few years, Canada caught on and made Graham one of its busiest progressive DJs. Kinetic Records took notice of Graham, giving him the helm for volume four of their Tranceport series, released in May of 2001. A bit prior to the mix albums release, Graham started producing in a small studio, with three of four of the tracks appearing on dance music charts in the U.K. and Europe. In 2003 Graham started hosting a monthly show on the internet-only Proton Radio and released the mix-CD Shine a year later on System.
