songs with extended intros and outros

so since i started djing alot more and hanging around alot more guys that have been playing longer than i have i noticed alot of them have songs with intros that make it easier for mixing. here is one example

i was listening to another dj play the other night and he had an intro of just drums and that bass tone. then after i think 8 bars drake came in, as opposed to it just starting off with him in the beginning.

Where can i find songs with these intros?

these are probably just self made edits, i know a few who do this with ableton. some tunes come with a standard club edit which usualy also prolongs the intro/outro

You can make your own but a number of companies and record pools offer the extended mixes for most popular Rap / Pop / Top 40 stuff.

If you dig around on soundcloud you can find some “Intros” for download as well.

Most of the music pools that offer that sort of music have intro or extended edits. There was a DJTT article about the various pools a while back.
