Good stuff that's exclusive to Beatport

I have a 25% off code for Beatport and am trying to fill my basket with stuff I can't get elsewhere (as most tunes can be had cheaper elsewhere), but I'm not finding much stuff for some reason.
I'm mainly interested in prog house, techno (not minimal), old trance or anything really, just as long as it's good and only available on Beatport or more expensive elsewhere (unlikely, but I've seen it).
So what labels would you recommend me to check out?
So far I've been going thru Mistiquemusic's back catalog and I haven't found a single tune worth listening again yet… |

Surprise, surprise, you would reduce your posts numbers by 90% if you would just post in the music forums when you find something you like.
As for your question there are some labels that release only on Beatport. Mestiza comes to my mind if I think about new "old-school" Progressive House. Otherwise just look for the new releases, as the majority of them are Beatport exclusive for 1-2 months and are priced 2.49$ as they are not available on the other digital stores until the Beatport exclusive time window is over.
For old Trance, Bellboy, Platipus and Hook Recordings have or are still releasing their entire back-catalogue, however not just on Beatport but on all the digital stores as far as I know. |

I've tried that. When i post about stuff I like, no one replies and there is no conversation whatsoever. If i post some criticism loads of people get offended and start getting all defensive and then all of a sudden there's conversation as conversation feeds conversation and if you can look past all the over-defensive posts, you might actually find some good conversation among all the . Sadly, this is how it goes IMO.
Also without criticism, everything will turn to and I personally don't want that, even though a lot of people do (or at least seem to). I thought about starting a thread about Mistiquemusic as I find the label interesting and would like to have a conversation about it. That'll have to wait until I've sampled their entire back catalog though.

Thanks, I'll check out Mestiza. I won't check out any of the 2,49€ releases though as those can be had later on for much cheaper elsewhere and I'm in no hurry. And even if I get a 25% discount on them, they'll still be cheaper 1-2 months from now at Beatport, so I'll rather buy them then. |

Will look forward to your thread then.

Yeah, if you have no release that you want to have right now there is no reason to browse through the 2.49 releases. At the moment I don't remember other labels that release on Beatport only, but in case I do I will post here. |

| Just remembered that also RPO/Rick Pier O'Neil productions (RPO Records/Garbage Records) are for the large majority only present on Beatport. No idea if you like its past or present style, start by looking at the tracks tagged as Progressive House I would say. |

Not exclusive to Beatport and I've listened to most of their back catalog and still to this date I cannot figure out why they have "deep" in their name. I haven't liked a single track from Anjunadeep.
And thanks Trancefxs, I'll have to check out RPO also!  |
