Usually sets, or Di.fm
ALso, check out last.fm. its an app you install on your comp that tracks what you listen to. It provides you with info on the musician you're listening to and suggests similar artists.
Click on the little box in my sig. |

Lol, absolutely true.
First, i go and preview new releases at juno.co.uk They let you download .m3u file of all new releases, which goes straight to my Winamp. I have few global hotkeys enabled in Winamp, F8 as previous and F9 as next. This way, i can do other things on the computer and simultaneously skip through the playlist while having winamp in the background. If i like a track, i get the name and put it into p2p app, to see if i can get the full track. The quality does not matter because once i listen to that track in it's full length, and i like it, i go and look for it on beatport to buy it in wave format. If i don't like that track, it gets deleted. If it's a really great track, i buy it on vinyl later from either dancerercords or juno. I also like to download DJ mixes, burn them to the cd-r and listen to them in my car along with having tracklist printout handy for marking tracks i like. This beats listening to FM or satellite radio for sure. |

| Guys if you can't find the tune on beatport or whatever and you are forced to download without buying, which p2p program or torrent site do you use? |

Neo: I start by checking Amazon, then eBay, then a specialty CD store that might have it (YesAsia for J-Pop, for example). Juno is usually the last stop for EDM releases that are released on vinyl but are not yet available anywhere else. The vinyl is expensive, so I end up waiting for the tune to become available on Beatport. iTunes surprisingly has some EDM releases that Beatport does not, as does the Amazon MP3 store. Worse comes to worst I use [TA does not support file-sharing] to try to find the track.
Finding new music for me happens through branching out based on what I like. I'll find a tune that I like, from say... Chieko Kinbara. I like the song, so I check out the rest of her releases through Discogs/Beatport/Amazon. Maybe in that process I find a Chieko Kinbara remix that I like, by say Rasmus Faber. I really like that remix, so I check out what else Rasmus Faber has put out. Turns out that they also remixed a Miguel Migs tune that I liked, which was put out by Salted records. I check out what else is on Salted, where I find out about Chuck Love, who also releases stuff on OM...
Eventually you'll get to the point where you have a wide range of artists and labels that you prefer, so you can check for new releases from there while also branching out on leads from another song, repeating the process... |

| Gotcha. Sometimes there's just some specific remix I'm looking for and I can't find it anywhere so I thought some torrent search engine would be the last place i could turn |

If its a specific remix that you need, then you'll want to check Discogs first. If the mix was officially released and not a white label, then it'll be on a slab of vinyl somewhere. If its a white label mix then... good luck :conf: |
