Beatport

What a fucking mess. ’Bout ready to just bin them completely. But their user interface and the ability to track by favorites is far better than anyone else. But a non-functional site, which Beatport frankly is right now, serves no purpose. And it’s been over a week. Utter embarrassment.

I’d be livid if I was a label or artist, already struggling, without these cunts mucking everything up through abject incompetence.

jonattonyeah Agreed. Although it’s been a month at this stage and no real sign of a fix. I thought my favourites were coming back but the list has dwindled again. Shambolic.

That long?!?!?! I guess I wasn’t paying much attention. That’s just a joke in 2021. Retards.

I used to enjoy checking out the “Recommended List” that BP would compile based off whatever you had sitting in your main cart, but it’s clear that that particular functionality isn’t a priority anymore. It’s transitioned more to a random selection of whatever the hell they see fit to match to the release date(s) and genres of the tracks already in your cart.

Half my purchases/ pre-orders available today won’t download. Tracks I’ve just added to the cart say I’ve purchased them before, but I haven’t. Total mess 🙁

Wasily switch browser mate and try again. I’ve had this before on chrome, so went back into beatport via firefox and was able to download again. I’ve often found you can download the same track (on the same day) more than once from multiple platforms

I’m not purchasing a thing until I know it’s fully fixed. All my follows seem to have returned which is encouraging.

Yeah it’s looking better today than it has. The bellends.

Didn’t realize how much I depended the my artist & label-follows there to find new music before this happened. It’s been real work finding new music to play these past weeks.

Agreed. The quality control and the genre definitions in BP isn’t great - not that I think it’s their fault. Wading through that without the follows is next to impossible. Still think BP is the best of the bunch so it’ll be good once they get their issues sorted.

As an EDIT, much of what’s in my new release section now falls under “DANCE / ELECTRO POP”. What? A Dense & Pika album (sound pretty good despite not liking the majority of their releases) and a Denham Audio remix? Can’t even imagine digging through that genre.

Homegrove Charts mate, it’s all about the charts on BP. Let someone else do the leg work.

jonattonyeah

As an FYI, their track update goes back weeks. There’s a lot of in-fill from dates like 2/19 that you might’ve thought you’ve already seen.

Wasily

ScottBailey Thanks Scotty. Managed it by DL them one by one…

Speaking of this, I was on the beatport website this morning!

NasserAlazzawi What was the story here and did you jump in the pool at the end?

Awesome!

It’s canny mad like. I saw a competition Beatport were running where you have to record yourself using Beatport link. There were a couple hundred entries and I was one of the 8 runner uppers.

Winners got actual DJ gear prizes - decks and headphones and stuff. I’m happy with my gear so didn’t feel as deserving as some people but I was buzzing to find out I had over 750 live viewers and my socials lit up a bit afterwards with new followers as well.

They didn’t tell me when I would be on (which was 3:30am here) so I woke up to some people in the UK messaging me saying “i was just buying some tracks on Beatport when I had to double take!”

Amps

NasserAlazzawi Amazing stuff mate, well done 👍️ Poor show on the pool diving.

Heno

NasserAlazzawi you can send me on the gear if needs be
