Beat hunting

Post by sunsoundlive » Sat Apr 02, 2011 6:45 pm

Hello there,

A while back I posted about mixeeba.com where you can find where to buy beats (http://www.dubstepforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=185856)

If you're in the UK you'll now see prices for each store, meaning you can find where to pick up the cheapest cuts - not a massive difference in pricing, given digital is sooo much cheaper than vinyl!.. but, if you're picking up 10/20 tracks you might find you can save a few quid, especially if you're buying every week like I do :)

Here's an example - http://www.mixeeba.com/instant/results/ ... de2000020/

Please let me know your thoughts and what else you'd like to see. (Please not prices only appear if you're in the UK)..

Cheers :)

Nice idea :W:

I did a test for the first thing that came to mind, after trying to find somewhere to buy yesterday - Searched for 'Kryptic Minds - Can't Sleep' and it pulled up the single but not the LP. So I searched for 'BLACKBOX011' but it said 'Minimum information required is title and artist.'

Would be nice if there was support for Catalogue Numbers and would be good to get a few more sites on there as well - digital-tunes.net etc

I'll probably use in the future though if I remember - thanks for the link :)

Yeh it'll search for individual tracks rather than LPs/samplers/EPs etc.. We'll think about catalogue numbers - it's not something we've considered before.

Thanks for the feedback :)
