Where can I buy tracks
Whether you are the rookie DJ or an experienced one, you will always be needed to buy new music to amaze your audience and fans. You should update your playlists regularly, because new music is released in the world every day, and if you play regularly, and you have your own show, then you are just a must to delight the listeners with fresh hits.
Let’s look at a few resources where you can get new music making it as a DJ: finding out about new releases, buying or downloading for free.
Explore other DJs’ track lists
Why not see what your favorite DJs are already playing? To get an idea of which artists better seek when downloading music, listen to DJ mixes. When you find out that you like a track from the mix, look into the track list and borrow the track name for yourself.
For example, here are some sites with track lists:
tracklists.thomaslaupstad.com/
1001tracklists.com/
serato.com/playlists
kuvo.com/discover
See track lists of radio stations
Each station usually has a list of tracks to watch on the site. This is a good way to find out what’s hot for radio listeners. For example, in the UK, most commercial radio stations are BBC Radio 1 and Capital FM, which are full of new and popular music. This is another idea where to get information about hits.
And of course, links to pages with playlists of popular radio stations:
bbc.co.uk/radio1/playlist
capitalfm.com/radio/playlist/
bbc.co.uk/1xtra/playlist
capitalxtra.com/radio/playlist/full-playlist/
kissfmuk.com/playlists/
Soundcloud
You probably know what Soundcloud is. The very valuable thing about it is that it`s a remixes` goldmine, and original music from new artists. You can always find many free tracks from novice producers on the site. Some of the most popular tracks on the charts from electronic producers have appeared there, thanks to the free download on Soundcloud. They remained free until the label acquired them.
YouTube
Thanks to the search and recommendation algorithm, you can easily find fresh and high-quality music for yourself. Search YouTube for the title of the song you like and due to alike videos in the recommendations, you have the opportunity to dip yourself in listening and selecting new music for a long time.
