    FYI Beatport sellers....

    MASTER THE FUCKING TUNES BEFORE YOU UPLOAD>
    \beatport doesnt. and in particular if anyone round here knows them.

    LIMBO records, just posted cool tunage, but nothing is mastered and it sounds like the stock soundsystem from a 85 nova. and its on my 5.1 comp system from Harmon kardon.... and if they cant do you justice,, no one can.

BUT ...please, and im begging, stop trying to make """a prog record"" or a ""electro"" song. please go back to making good music like breeder, oliver leib, and more used to make. you know. just good music. (im gonna drop names if it keeps up... a few i know are around MS/bedrock....etc.

      i totally agree with you about the mastering aspect of sound. I think sometimes people think they do it for you.

      if you've got a song on beatport, you should be more behind it to master the damn thing, you want people to wanna buy more of your tracks and when not mastered, you don't really wanna go back and check them out again.

        Not mastering is kind of shitty.

            Beatport have really gone downhill since the beginning of the year. Hopefully with Beatport v3 round the corner they will have sorted things out. But at present there site and sound quality on some of there mp3's is a joke.

                  Yep, I´ve had a couple of duffers too...

                  When I buy stuff from them now, I usually look at the files in SoundForge before playing them, applying some limiting or levelling the volume in Live.

                    You shouldn't have to though, thats the thing. I have'nt bought anything from them since feb. I only ever log on to add tracks and then delete them once i've found them on stompy or juno. All beatport ever did was blame Flash for poor d/l and loading speeds. It's only recently in the past month or two that they have held there hands up and said there servers cant handle the amount of hits there getting. It's pretty pathetic the amount of b.s they've come out with

                            name drop time.... on part 2. (it was mastered, but he just tried to hard)

                            t_m s_____r. great DJ, good producer, but the two songs i ran across yesterday were just ................. lacking energy. and G__g W____n, you make sick tracks, but no groove. and no, just because there is a bassline, doesnt mean it has a groove. fill in blanks.

                              i know the first name and i think i've got a line on the second one.

                              not everyone can make banging tracks everytime.
