Dan Maxwell Explains Vinyl, Touring & Why We’ll All Live on Trash One Day

Dan Maxwell of Max Trax Records stops by Stop It! What starts as a conversation about running an independent record label quickly turns into deep thoughts about vinyl obsession, touring life, Midwest kindness, assless chaps, skate injuries, underground living, and whether trash will eventually become the foundation of society. Along the way, Dan talks about building Max Trax Records, releasing music from bands like Lightning Stills and Leafblower, why physical media still rules, and how years of touring eventually turn you into a basement-based label dad (in the best way). There are strong opinions about albums, cities, Dakota rankings, saying “you know” too much, and why Omaha is secretly one of the nicest places on earth. Learn more about your ad choices.
