Yup I've had exactly the same (coming up with Trentemoller as a similar search on words that are absolutely nothing like "Trentemoller")

I really dont like the new beatport. I hate how now you have to click the releases individually, before it was just all listed when you clicked "look at all releases". Made things so much easier and faster. I hate clicking all these damn release images just to listen to it.

Thats why I use Audiojelly. I have been having alot of problems with Beatport too. And with Audiojelly you don't have to deal with those area restrictions either. I say fck Beatport.

You do realize when you click on an artist and it's displaying by releases you can click the option on the left in the 'search' box that says tracks, right? It's annoying that it defaults to releases when searching now, but meh...at least you can change it.

I get the Trentemoller thing too, was just thinking about this the other day as it's the first time I really noticed it happens every time. I like the new version of Beatport over the old one...there are some quirks, but I've found that samples load immediately, rather than before when the player would inexplicably get stuck on some tracks but ones right beneath it would right away. Not only that but the site seems to get stuck loading eternally alot less.

I still hate the 2 minute samples (who shops from Beatport regularly and hasn't been burned by a crap purchase that sounded like it could be decent in the 2 minutes you heard it?), but I dunno...comparing all of the quirks to each of the digital sites I always come back to Beatport if I have a choice. In general the selection is so much better there, and in general it's much easier/quicker to purchase tracks than on other sites in my opinion.

I don't think I've ever found a track on Beatport afflicted by this that I've been able to find on any of the other main digital dl sites that I can grab. The area restrictions aren't Beatport's choice, it's what area the label liscenses the track to be released in afaik.

Here, try this. Try to purchase this track off Beatport- Into The Night 2006-Purple Haze Remix-Puple Haze, 4 Strings. Told me territory restricted, can't buy it.


Now go to Trackitdown.net and try to purchase it. Let me put it in my crate without a single problem.

Hope this helps.

Sorry to whore your thread....

Random Beatport question.

I have a "coupon" for 10 free tracks, i got it at BANG music festival. The URL they told me to use is garbage. The code they told me to type in is garbage. Has anyone sucessfully used one of these things? Bastards.

The Trentmoller thing is clearly a conspiracy, Trentmoller OBVIOUSLY hacked the system to make his name pop up everywhere.

Same for me, I dunno. I'm too lazy to go further and see if it'll let me actually purchase it, but there have been websites I've seen where it'll restrict you from purchasing just prior to check out (ie entering your official address) even though you've logged in and your account says you're in the states. Either way, it's the first I've seen of this case where something's not available on Beatport but available on other sites on the same label. I've seen this occur when one site has a release on one label and a different site on another, but not on the same...
