So here I am, looking at my under used final scratch unit, its time to get some new tunes down in digital format.

Vinyl (Big black discs)

http://www.vinylwarning.com.au
Located in melbourne, great for shipping costs
Stocking House, Trance, Electro, Hip-Hop, Progressive, Hard Trance, Hard Style, Hardcore, Techno and Breaks.

http://www.juno.co.uk
UK Based store with reasonable shipping and a massive inventory, great for those hard to find tunes. They stock everything from Funk and Disco to Gabba

http://www.chemical-records.co.uk
Again another UK Based store offering good shipping rates back home.
Stocking D&B, House, Prog, Garage, Techno, Hard dance....

http://www.bangingtunes.com
Back to the UK we go again, looking at the harder side of the dance scene, stocking predominantley hard dance, techno, trance and freeform with a bit of breaks thrown in. Quality online cart system but the shipping prices do leave a lot to be desired.

http://www.redeyerecords.co.uk
Cant move away from the UK, a sole D&B store with what I've been told has a solid selection and great shipping prices.

http://www.nuenergy.co.uk
Home of the Freeform and Hard trance lables such as Nu Energy, Dynamix and Peroxide.

Digitial (mp3)

http://www.trackitdown.net
http://www.chemical-records.co.uk
http://www.nuenergy.co.uk
http://www.beatport.com
http://www.djdownload.com
http://www.3beat.uk.co
http://www.audiojelly.com
http://www.edmdigital.com


I know I have missed a lot of stores, and the digital stores are missing brief descirptions. Should anyone have anything to add, be it more stores or short spiels just reply to this thread.
Ideally I'd like to make an article out of this, so keep the content flowing on.

there's a huge variety of styles there ranging from Dnb to hardcore to house.

but that said for mine you can't go past Nu-energy it's easy to navigate and they have some awesome tunes.

Just in regards to the post about allofmp3.com

It's by far the best legal mp3 shop on the web. Actually I'm surprised that access to it from other countries is even allowed. You pay by the megabyte and choose your own quality of encoding - from 128k up to CD-DA. I get 192k songs and most are less than 10 cents each.

But now the Warning!

DON'T USE YOUR CREDIT CARD

For complete saftey open a paypal account, then buy an xrost certificate and use that to pay for your tracks. If you do it this way you'll also get a 32% bonus before january 14th. i started with US$10 and still have $2 left and i've gotten over 100 tracks so far.

This is how e-retailing of music should be.

great website and sooo blooody cheap - i can only assume its legal and the artists get paid?
ELECTRONIC MUSIC IS SERIOUS BUSINESS AND SHOULD ONLY BE APPRECIATED BY A SLIGHT HEAD NOD AND COMMENT ABOUT THE DJS MUSICAL INTEGRITY.

Its highly unlikely that the artists get paid. But the artists hardly get paid from any form of mainstream music so go figure. Plus most of the other legit music sites force you to download some protected DRM windows media audio crap that you can't do what you like with - I wouldn't touch WMA with a ten foot pole.

aussie mate of mine got hooked on d&b over in the UK and never came back, works for renegade hardware/TOV and set this mail order site up. pure d&b vinyl, CDs, mags, merchandise, DJing stuff and a few other sections, and because its not quite as busy as redeye or chemical you might actually have a chance of picking up some of the promos, they dont instantly disappear the moment that get uploaded...

check 'tune of the week' section for a fucking laugh tho, funny c*nt. 016_lol.gif

beats from drum and bass to house, jazz and hip hop.

On our store when you pay for your tunes you get to download them in

CD quality FLAC, or if you want download all three! Tracks cost 1.23€ , whole albums are 8.20€ (tax free for you guys 003_wink.gif ). We accept credit cards, Visa Electron and Paypal.

So dont get ripped off by the other stores trying to charge you joke
prices for lossless tracks, check out http://www.digital-tunes.net!

does anyone know any good hip-hop vinyl sites?
i use vinylwarning every now and then but alot of the tunes im after they dont have, seems to be a limited supply of hip hop there.
if someone can help me out would be good.

i have started to buy tunes on the net, you can get the one's you are after instead of going in and buying form the supply on the shelves. its alot better range so your collection actually grows with good tunes not just tunes that are avaliable.
This is the greatest case of false advertising I've seen since I sued the movie The Never Ending Story.

this isnt really an online music store, but its an internet radio site and when you put in your favourite artist or song, it will come up with similar tracks and artists...and usually they are spot on!

it will let you listen for a bit but then you gotta register, but that only involves giving your email and thats it.... 040_thumbsup.gif
