Where do people get thier music from?

I constantly see DJs have 500+ song on their computers, do they buy them all or do they have a provider?

I’m not a DJ but I buy all of my music because I want to support the artist who makes that music, so they will continue to make music. If everyone stole music no-one would make any music.

tbf most collections are built up over time so even if a DJ bought say 500 songs in wav format, thats like what 1.29 per track? thats like £645 but spread over the course of say a year or more. besides if you DJ at a level where you’re getting bookings you should have no problem investing in your craft and buying tracks anyway b2b receiving tracks before they’re released from the artist

I buy so much music from here these days it is crazy.

0h85 · February 10, 2016, 10:07pm

soundcloud is utter shit anymore for finding tunes

i guess i could make a big thread of some older bandcamp/SC stuff tho now that my sub-category dsf board is gone ;___;

might work on that

What’s your username on their?

Wouldn’t mind following you to keep up with which releases your feeling.

The most legit place, sunk 130 there last night. I like that you can get it in all formats there. 320’s fine, but I appreciate having the option to become an audiophile.

bandcamp / junodownload.com / sonicboom UK
Prefer to be legit, ain’t about taking money from my friends pockets.

boob · February 11, 2016, 7:52pm

Tbh, I have no qualms with getting a pirate copy of something that sold out on wax. For the most part I do buy it back in digi when I’ve got the P though.

Initially I agreed with this, but I found myself acquiring some samples and thought, ‘why is this any different?’

0h85 · February 14, 2016, 10:10am

bc finished tunes are not manipulated the way samples are while djing vs producing
