What sites do you use to purchase your tracks for djing?
Phil-McRackin I went over around ’95 when I was only getting into the music. I was there for about 8 hours and spend a small fortune.
mono-stereo I do miss going to my local record stores and been handed a bunch of records. My bank balance does not.

Phil-McRackin only got up to HTFR once, and although I was impressed with the rows and rows of vinyl stacked high, I was less impressed with them having 10 copies of everything I didn’t want and none of what I did want! Was even less impressed with their customer service too, so just stuck with ordering out of the catalogue from then on in
Well worth checking if something you’ve found elsewhere is there for less.
It has been Beatport and Bandcamp for a long time - I need Bandcamp to step up and integrate with Rekordbox because the Beatport link stuff is working extremely well for me.
Bandcamp, Juno, Beatport and for more accessible stuff I have a subscription to Mixupload. Unlimited monthly downloads in FLAC for £8 a month. Not so good for more underground stuff but a huge back catalogue and pretty good for the more mainstream type tracks, the stuff that will hit the Beatport Charts is always there. Can’t imagine the artists are getting much though for that price.
Simon’s suggestion of crates was great. I find the latency of beatport sometimes really irritating.
