I wrote this a while back too: http://thedjpodcast.com/articles/how-to-find-new-music/


Hey great article! I read it and it gave me some awesome strategies to get started with! thank you!

Also everyone else thanks for the advice, I am going to look into some of the other ways mentioned. I love the "save the label on youtube" tip. I never thought about that! you are right though i noticed with labels like Anjuna they put little 3min snippets which are just enough for me to see if I like the song.

sorry if I somehow make your life not quite so fulfilled. Maybe had you tried a little harder ? Perhaps done a some binge working rather than binge drugging, you wouldn't find such statements so hard to believe. Of course when I am talking big wigs , it is rather more the big wigs of the film industry so I suppose it is meaningless because they couldn't give a about EDM but I suppose the odd licensing deal would just about be a few thousand times the pittance beatport sales make for the most part. You do one more replacement dis and I swear, I will give you a big fat F for effort you dumb dirty fascist.

you've been found out numerous times on other forums for being full of , you would figure you would change your screen name by now.

this is the only forum I post on with this name. Please do show. I doubt anyone would think of such a silly name and actually use it. Weird how google doesn't turn anything up. I see honesty isn't your forte.

Well considering the fact I constantly made fun of french people, ravers and drug users in general and made fun of all the lame producers with diss songs in the genre they did better than they could, it is easy to understand why I was not liked. That forum was pure indulgence as the members there are quite idiotic. I mean ravers tend to be dumb but when you consider the the french ones, you get this complete new breed of halfwits that are just too funny to pass up. I haven't posted there in years.

Still don't know what that has to do with my career in LA in the film industry. Perhaps go ask the production forum. They will mostly likely say i'm a dick but nobody will question what I do and how well I do it. I have been on the soundstage , or very often the soundbooth with some very well known directors , composers , producers and the odd network head. Not that I would be in a position to really talk to the network heads or producers but the other 2, lunch is a common thing.

Can you repeat your question in a non idiotic fashion ? It is rather cryptic and I can't for the life of me find my moron decoding rosetta stone.

i work in the film industry too...i'm martin scorsese.

you do realize he was born, schooled and also resides for the most part in the USA. Not even a first generation Italian. But I can assume that someone of his age with no interest in EDM would be visiting the dj booth. I happened to be here by accident as Nortek mentioned.

so what other forums do I apparently frequent. You said there were many. Would love to meet some other fans.

Shut up and leave so. I was being sarcastic above. I rarely give anyone stick only now and again to keep people like yourselves from riling others up.

Back on topic.

The youtube suggestion is something i also use. I've got a text document which i use to copy all youtube links into. I then go through them deleting them if i've looked at them and have either purchased the track or don't like it. That way i've always got a list of tracks that when my next gig comes up I can go through my text document looking at which tracks I've wanted to purchase over the last while.

The nice thing about this is you sometimes listen to the track a few times over a few weeks. And change your mind on whether you really like the track enough to purchase it. Or if it was just a mood you were in at the time.
