ArchimedesQ Crates.co, trackID.net, Bandcamp feed and follows, Soundcloud feed. and stupid amount of (mostly shite) promo’s I spend probably 4 hours a week going through stuff and filtering.
erik Millsy not at all no, I get loads of them, 50+ a week, prog, breaks, techno, deep house. I’m really fucking lucky I get so much great music on a weekly basis so I play it.
RichM I’m glad you guys all go to these great lengths and dedication to source this music, as I for one am extremely grateful that I get to hear so much amazing music as a result of the mixes on this board. So hats off to you all 🙌
Manski RichM 100% this. Most of the tracks in my collection are from ones posted on this board or included in your mixes. I CBA/haven’t got time, to sift through all the shite that’s out there and, as most of you have got half decent taste, it saves me a lot of effort! I’m very grateful and thank you all for your service! 😊
apyssjw If I find a track I like on Spotify, then start a song radio , it will feed you tracks on a similar theme - which at times has worked brilliantly. erik I rarely use Beatport unless I absolutely can’t find it anywhere else I have a, possibly, irrational dislike for beatport - so do the same thing.
erik apyssjw they’re like Spotify to a degree, money grabbing cunts. Things like that streaming and charging more for a HQ download, utter shit housery
SM001 Smallman1 Any cop? Dan Negative. It’s true. 😆 They’re the only mixes i’ve ever put up. And that was 15 years ago so wouldn’t expect anymore anytime soon. 😅 I’ve been meaning to put together a few mixes on Abelton just for the fun of it.
RichM SM001 out of interest how do you the listen to all the music you buy? Do you create playlists? Arrange on genres? Stick one massive list on shuffle? Personally I couldn’t own that much electronic music as someone who doesn’t DJ, as I prefer listening to electronic music in mixes rather than individual tracks
SM001 RichM I have playlists on Bandcamp and Spotify. I only purchase a half dozen tracks a week. Organising the individual tracks can be a bit of a pain in the hoop.
Homegrove RichM I listen to them in Rekordbox in the export-mode. Means that I have to be on my laptop, but also means I’m concentrating on said tunes.
erik RichM i do playlists for mixes and gigs, and a few playlists for livestreams, that way i can sort music down into different vibes for different times of night
