Re: The new Beatport.

all the DJs shop at the same store?

how very underground

I go there because it's easy. I don't always buy from there. If you dig around, you can find some good stuff....Stay the hell away from the top lists and the most popular lists...Sometimes, the dj charts have some gems. New releases on Tuesdays can sometimes be nice, too.

Re: The new Beatport.

the reason i may use beatport more than other sites is b/c some of my fav. artist have beatport only exclusive releases.

Re: The new Beatport.

I just want them to roll the damn thing out and to stop with the 2 minute track demos. I want more. I want Needledrop from DJ Download. That thing is awesome.

Oh and just visiting there and listening to the New Sasha release. I saw they had it under Techno when it's really prog house. Those people need to learn how to decipher music.

Same here, I used to buy the majority of my stuff from dancerecords. They are based about 25 miles from my house, so if I would order before noon, my vinyl would be on my porch the next day!!

They obviously didn't 'learn my every need.' There are two things that I was really hoping the next beatport would have:

1. Full length track previews with waveform display (i.e. like djdownload has)
2. A wish list feature, in addition to the checkout cart, that allows you to save tracks for a later purchase

Too bad I won't be seeing either of those features. At least they are making some attempt at a much needed upgrade.

As for the wishlist feature on beatport, they do kinda have this... just add all the tracks you want to your cart or that you wish to have. Once they're in there, change your delivery preferences to instant download.

When you do this, you can buy individual tracks in your cart, and keep the others in there for later!!

Marketing.

A lot of the "labeling" that Beatport does is not really done for musical reasons.

What is Stompy? An online rec shop? I googled it with no luck.
