Commercial Music
Hey guy, really quick question.
I have a fairly outdated music collection, last years charts mostly. I want to get into DJing the current commercial music - a clubby kind of remix. Things like Good Feeling by Flo Rida and Avicii. Where do you get your music from?
I’ve been looking around at websites like Beatport and Clubdanceremixes but I’m not sure if they’re the best locations to get my music from.
What do you suggest?
Thanks so much.
5 dolla holla,
at it again
lol.
I got that response on my last threat as well. I’m not exactly sure what it means, but I genuinely do need help.
Sorry dude, but ‘commercial music’ is a pretty secretive scene, hardly anybody’s heard it, nobody speaks of it. Some people claim it doesn’t even exist. You’ve got to pay your dues by playing underground music in basement crack dens for years before somebody hooks you up with that sort of shit.
Really? Maybe Commercial isn’t the right word then. I mean songs from the top 40 and so on. Is that not commercial?
Shhhh! Don’t tell everybody where to find it!
Before you know it, there’ll be DJ’s playing ‘commercial’ everywhere… Keep it secret, keep it safe 
Check billboard.com and itunes charts. Its really easy.
You could just type into google ‘top 40’ and you will get literally millions of pages giving lists of top 40 songs.
I have done that but where do I get the remixes for them? Some of the songs just don’t have that club feel to them.
search youtube for: “name of song” remix
My 2nd bit of advice to you is 2 forget this thread and head back to beatport or itunes or anywhere you get music from. Type in the name of the song you are after and there is literally many remixes listed. Then its the music collector part. LISTEN to them all and decide which one(s) you like.
Edit: Soundcloud is a great place to look.
record pools. there is a few threads around here just search the forum I like Dj city but there are plenty to choose from.
can i start posting gifs yet? 
gifs would make this thread like 100x better
Really? It’s ridiculously easy to find music nowadays and I genuinely don’t understand why people have to ask, especially so called DJ’s, beginners or not… Don’t mean to beef, just go and have a look, I don’t know what kind of answers people expect… Google? Record Shops? Radio Playlists? Blogs?
Poor dude is going to be so confused 
3rd piece of advice.
Read the threads throughout the forums.
look through all the different sections and dig through all of the posts.
not only will you find what you are looking for, but you will start to understand most of the replies you are going to get in this thread 
there are bonus surprises and laughter along the way
I’m predicting a thread about skrillex or deadmau5 as OP’s next troll attempt. Anyone care for a friendly wager? 
Why on earth does everyone assume I’m trolling? I’m genuinely looking for some advice! Why is that so hard to believe?
I’ll be the first to apologise if you’re not, but you may come to regret the choice of username in due course
