all the time mate. i tend to fill up my crate every month and by the end of the month i filter out the ones i'm w/e about. but by that point, i look at the tracks i bought last month and there's always a few that i have never even played, and when i do i'm like man why did i buy this??

at least it beats tracks you bought on vinyl...went through some songs today and wondered when the hell i bought it, and why.

2 bucks lost beats 11

yeah. i wonder why I bought this tune, put in in a folder then leave it for a while.

come back few months, and my taste in music changed a bit, and I find that I actually like this tune. lol

Same here man. When I first bought the Trentemoller remix of Les Djins, i thought it was crap because it's tough to mix it into anything. A couple months later, I came to love that track. It's absolutely brilliant. It's a tough feat to mix it into something but has worked great for me as a closing track.

yes definitely

i always sort out what is in for me and what is out


although there is a difference between what I personally am bored with and what I can still play at a gig. I like having a lot of music to choose from

what i do to combat this is to listen on beatport pretty regularly and keep a list of tracks that i like. then when it comes time to buy i have a list to refer to and i go back and listen and try to buy the ones that still peak my interest the most.

I sort of fixed this by making myself keep tracks in my cart for 2 weeks at a minimum, so that if after 2 weeks the sample still doesnt sound interesting, it gets the ax.

i do that all the time..buy some tracks burn them on CD's, put them in my folder, never use them again. Espcially if its on a friday night, cause thats right after my radio show so im all pumped to spin them next week, but by the next morning im like WTF when did u buys these or sometihng.

This happens to me all the time.. It's very frustrating to see all the shit tracks accumulating in my mp3 collection. Or even worse, shit vinyls.

I always used Les Djinns as an intro and then mixed into John Dahlback - Nothing is For Real (Mark Knight Remix). Always worked for me.

I have 4 carts...LOL. I keep one empty, and I use the remaining 3 to sort the tracks I am interested in into 3 genres: house, electro/prog, minimal/techno. I then keep them in the carts for a while and start picking off the weak tracks. When I am ready to purchase, I only buy enough tracks for a new demo/podcast mix. Or I'll buy whatever tracks I need for an upcoming gig. I buy a ton of tracks but I play out often and record mixes regularly so I play everything at least once. For my mixes for my demos or podcasts, I only use tracks once anyway.
