History

Max FM is a dance radio station in the UK broadcasting from Stoke-on-Trent, It was a radio station with a bit of a difference. Max FM first started as Fresh FM back in 2004 but this never took off well and they had major problems with their streaming service and leaving listeners not been able to tune in.

In 2005 Fresh FM went with no press release beforehand or anything and no one really knew why it shut down and stopped broadcasting, their website was just displaying the logo and nothing else, a few weeks later they but up a message with logo saying they had ceased broadcasting and that was it.

A few months after the shutdown of Fresh FM they changed their home page with a new logo which was Max FM and stated 'We are working on a new and exciting radio station'

Max FM didn't launch until 2006, when it did they had a poor under 600 listeners for their first week of broadcasting but it soon started getting higher and higher and within months became one of the uk's biggest dance internet only radio stations, Max FM was also supporting a new and upcoming dj DJ Scrivo and playing his live gigs back on air in prime time broadcasting.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    The history of the genesis or the old mythology repeats itself in the experience of every child. He too is a demon or god thrown into a particular chaos, where he strives ever to lead things from disorder into order.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Bias, point of view, fury—are they ... so dangerous and must they be ironed out of history, the hills flattened and the contours leveled? The professors talk ... about passion and point of view in history as a Calvinist talks about sin in the bedroom.
    Catherine Drinker Bowen (1897–1973)

    The history of work has been, in part, the history of the worker’s body. Production depended on what the body could accomplish with strength and skill. Techniques that improve output have been driven by a general desire to decrease the pain of labor as well as by employers’ intentions to escape dependency upon that knowledge which only the sentient laboring body could provide.
    Shoshana Zuboff (b. 1951)
