    Default What keywords do you use to search for new music?

    Hey Guys!

    What keywords do you use to search for new music, like releases, previews, free downloads, reviews - on Google? Are you looking for the name of a track, or just something like 'edm blog'?

    I mostly use Beatport.com . There I listen to the new Top 10 songs of my favourite genres weekly and that is normally enough for me. Additionally I search for some old 80's and 90's songs if their melody doen't make any attempt to go out of my head. And I listen a lot to internet radios. If I like a song being played, I search and buy it!

    just had a look at MOD EDIT no illegal DL links, that's what u mean?

    All links are for evaluation purposes only! All files downloaded from the links from this site need to be deleted within 24 hours from your computer.
    nothing too legal i don't suspect about that site and domain place4djs.com isn't even registered.

    when i want to search for new music i tend to just spend a few hours browsing djtunes.com, and searching on there from stuff mentioned on threads here. tends to eat up a bunch of time but i usually end up with a decent shopping cart of stuff to buy...

    Don't really use keywords...
    (I'll use a silly example)
    I usually find an artists I really like. i.e. Datsik

    Find their discog and listen through it, get what I like.

    Take note of what labels/artists they did a lot of work with. i.e. Datsik I noticed did A LOT of work with Excision on Rottun Records

    Check out that artists discog/labels, and then that process alone can go on forever pretty much. i.e. I looked through Excisions discog, got a what I liked, and moved onto the next artists.. goes on from there, in the end it was something like.. Datsik->Excision->Downlink->Calvertron->FS->etc.
    Keywords don't turn up much unless you really know what you're looking for.

    I just check my Facebook News Feed. Theres a couple of awesome pages that just keep posting songs from youtube, and most of them are pretty decent. I use MFL playlists and Music Updates mainly.

    Awesome for a morning as well, i just open up about 10 tabs of youtube and just play song after song

    MOD EDIT No illegal DL links

    literally has every big release on free download and they somehow get the extenede versions right when they come up.
    Also if you have a beatport account you should follow the artists and labels you've purchased from so whenever you go back you look up new releases by the artists and label in the tab. Also id say following djs on facebook and twitter helps cause they usually promote new releases heavily.

    hm...maybe because this site is totally illegal and unacceptable to be posted in the forums?
