This sort of thing is going to happen, just accept it.
Im not condoning ripping/ reconstructing tracks as im sure its very irritating for the artist but it will happen and there isnt too much that can be done about it.
Coming on and boasting about how you 'got him' is just as sad imo.
And here comes devil's advocate.

I just think it should be noted that all these people who are saying omg max thats sooo bad all have about 100000 mp3 on their computer. What makes it so bad that its a max graham track, just the fact that he came on complaining? There is so much hypocrisy here.

Good work guys, there was also a thread made in the Western Canada section, but I've PMed J-Spot and let him know whats going on, so that will be closed as soon as he comes online.
Dam, I used to listen to some of Alecs sets and thought they weren't bad, then he goes and does something real stupid like this, hope he didn't do it with any other mixes he made.

As far as the artist is concerned, and you can see it from the horses mouth here, he is concerned with HIS work. I dont think max graham gives two shits about this other guys career. He is bothered that a track which he hasnt released has been 'released' on the internet. The reasons for concern have also been outlined by him, for example he may not have totally finished working on the track, and its not ready for release in the state that its in.
the means by which people come across the track is of no concern. Its the fact that people have them in the first place.

like he said, it hurts his release reputation
it's his work and he should be able to have control over it. if he hasn't released it yet he has the right to be mad at someone for using his work without permission. i'm sure if you were in max's shoes you'd be saying the same thing he is
