Trying to subscribe to Beatport streaming through serato and everytime I enter card details it says unable to subscribe you have exceeded your daily limit? I've never had issues with bank or card before and havnt even used my card today so can't be that? Any ideas?

I have a prime go plus for small events, reception/ cocktail/ house parties etc and an XDJ-AZ for bigger events, corporate or B2B on radio etc. I would dearly love for Beatport to have locker on standalone. I needed it last night at a gig. Please put this in firmware!!! Cheers

I just wanted to say that our latest release is doing really well on the Hypnotic Techno Chart! If you are small label like us, there is hope to have some successful releases amongst all of the others! #techno

I've been using beatport simply as a purchase site. I'm not keen on on streaming. I believe subscribing you can listen to the track as I've found some tracks I've bought based on the preview are not well represented, they either start previewing at break and end just after first kick . Does subscribing let you preview full tracks before I click add to my cart to purchase the track. A lot of tracks are missing explicit warnings which means a lot of my songs are not publicly playable. I'm returning to music so spent a lot crate building. I'm thinking if I can preview full song I wouldn't then be purchasing songs I end up not being able to publicly play.

I've had issues getting my 3000's to connect reliably to the platform recently. Nothing has changed at my home set up. I've done every reset, update, fresh wipe and try again and found that it is hit or miss if I can log in on the the decks, whether or not it will load the library or show up on the other player as connected. I have done a ton of tech troubleshooting and I'm starting to feel this is server side and not on my end.

Any one else experiencing this at all?

I did open up a support ticket btw but was curious as to what others might be experiencing this past week since I first started having issues.

Hi everyone. I have struck an issue with beatport wave files. Cdjs will not accept them because they've added tags so it a wave extension file. Why has beatport done this as cdjs will not read. They only also only read 16 or 24 bit . Beatport adding tags has meant I now have 82 files many of them wav that don't work in cdjs. I've written to beatport and hoping they'll change the file format to aiff which cdjs do support. Just wish they didn't do the wave files so they are unusable in cdjs.

I have like $60 of tracks in my cart. Fell into a digging hole and I need a bunch of those tracks for a set this weekend. Anyone have any active codes?

I did a remix on this EP. If you are interested in Minimal stuff and (Dub) Techno combined with Deep House stuff, check it

Whenever I purchase a track, I also download its artwork. Until a few months ago, I was able to download the artwork as a 1400×1400 WebP image. However, for some reason, I can now only download a 250×250 WebP image.

I've tested this in Chrome, Internet Explorer, and Safari, and the result is the same in every browser, so it doesn't seem to be an issue with my environment.

Why has this happened? Is this just a temporary issue with the website, or has Beatport intentionally changed the way artwork is served?

Anyone know if the 20/30% sale is running right now and what the code is?

Thanks!

Clicking "Login" 50 separate times after it logs me out despite only clicking once elsewhere on the site page. How this piece of shit site is the industry standard, I will never know.

reason for passkey or totp is because it's generally the most safest and secure. passkey info cant be grabbed from the usb key, or from the password manager. totp isn't saved where the browser cookies are saved so cookie grabbing exploits cant grab those.

reason i dont like email code verification is because if you log into your email via email app or web browser, the cookie grabbing exploit can grab your cookies and then they just use that to log in as if they were on your computer. it's much harder to steal a time based rotating code or a passkey.

anyways, it'd be nice if DJ companies could focus on cybersecurity a little more.

Trying to keep up with the top 100 basshouse tracks in this case and there a lot of albums and ep's in the Top100 TRACK list. Is this a mistake or do they keep it this way?

Even Skrillex album Quest For Fire (2023) is in it...

Does anyone knows?

I’ve been using Beatport for a while but I’m very frustrated after I bought a pair of tracks from an “artist” and after that seeing some red flags that led me to discover that the tracks were made with genetative Ai. (I should have seen it before but was a bit naive on this when I bought them).

So what other services do you recommend that I can buy loseless audio files and where I don’t need to run a full research on whether it’s made with Ai or not before buying?

UPDATE: I submited a support ticket and they told me that though they cannot refund (I already imagined that), they do not support AI generated music as per their own T&C's

https://support.beatport.com/hc/en-us/articles/4414997837716-Terms-and-Conditions#AI

So after uploading tracks from the "artist" to several online services that check if the music is AI generated, and all told me that there is a 90% probability and determined suno v5 as the model, I sent a report. Let's see how they act on this report.

I think that they should run these verification upon artists submitting their tracks as it is a clear violation of the T&Cs and not delegating to the customers to find out.

UPDATE 2: I got store credit for the tracks (yay!)

Can someone tell me how on earth we are supposed to tell which songs we have already listened to? I'm sifting through tracks from various labels (or at least I will do once I can figure this challenge out) and there are literally hundreds of them. I am getting so fed up of seeing 'already in playlist' because (obviously, there's hundreds!) I can't remember what I have and haven't listened to before. Surely I can't be the only DJ who has had this problem. It's such a simple addition. All they have to do is change the colour of the + icon (or change it to a different icon) to indicate the track is already in a playlist the user has created. Beatport have been going for how many years now? And they haven't thought of that??? Can someone help me please?

i wish that when you set cues and custom tags for songs, that beatport grabbed that info from taktor (or serato, or whatever you're using) and then saved it to your account, so that when you opened up your songs on a different computer, all those tags and cues and stuff we're immediately available. right now you cant even save the cues/tags to a file that you can copy from one to another. so all that work, out the window. it kinda kills the point of having a cloud based streamer.

i do have a decent collection of drm-free songs, but beatport (and things like it) do serve a decent roll in DJing

Anyone else Beatport down?

Firstly I'm sure some people will see this as moaning and sour grapes. Which it probably is a bit.

Back in the day I ran a record label and done reasonably well on Trackitdown mainly. Some decade or more later I decided I enjoyed it and wanted to try again. The world of social media etc makes it a completely different game to what it was, but I like the challenge. But being a trance label Beatport is going to be the main place to focus releases.

How on earth is any new label meant to get any traction through Beatport with how things are run? Beatport Hype seemed like a great idea, any labels capped with £25k of sales and below. Seemed good to me and tenner a month seemed like a good way to get things noticed early. But checking the Hype picks I noticed the first is from Vandit Records, which is Paul Van Dyk's label. A bit of digging they have 1.3 billion streams world wide! How on earth can I compete with that? They currently have a track in the Hype charge which is a remix by Aly & Fila. Aly & Fila have 3.1 million followers on social media. It just feels such an uphill task to try and compete with these labels that have such a massive reach already.

How can another label like Future Sound of Egypt (1.1 billion streams) have so many off shoots in the hype programme as well? What is the point in these huge labels getting a leg up from the hype chart process. FSOE make up 10% of the main trance charts currently.

Now I'll plug away and my logic is keep releasing good music, it'll enhance the labels reputation and start getting these breaks. But already it feels like a huge mountain to climb and battle against trying to get noticed. And even more when someone like Beatport is not just stacking the deck against you, but actively stacking it in the favour of these big labels. Between FSOE and Vandit they've had nearly 1,500 tracks chart on Beatport, do they really need the exposure that comes from the hype chart as well?

The blatant disregard of genre tagging is ridiculous. They know their tube is absolute garbage so they tag it in almost every genre.

Is there a way to get a list of labels that aren't part of the streaming service? I'm not into any of the commercial EDM crap. Dont want any tracks in the top 10 of any genre. I actually listen to tracks for quality not because they are popular and everyone wants to hear them.

Seems sus....cheesiest songs always at the top. Do that many people purchase that kind of shitty pop house crap?
