What are some tracks you've purchased which sounded great from the sample, but ended up horribly failing expectations upon listening to the entire thing?

You'd do well to ask Kismet, I hear he's a big fan of Beatport samples.

It's happened to me several times - Sometimes those bloody samples are misleading

One more reason why DJ Download is better than Beatport!

I cant think of specific tracks of the top of my head but what I find annoying a lot of the time, is that you cant hear the intro or outro. I have bought many tracks from Beatport that sound great from the short sample but the intros/outros are an absolute mess.

I've got an old Andrea True Connection vinyl with You Got Me Dancing and the intro before the vocal hits is literally only 8 bars that aren't even on beat. It's a pain in the ass, and I hate to be always train wrecking in on such a sweet song.

I'll take sweet easy 1:30 intros any day
