    I use iDJPool record pool. They have a ton of music and a reasonable rate plan. Only downsides are no album art and you cant preview tunes. Just download the weekly folders for everything.

    I’ll just repeat mine for you. Beatport, Audiojelly, Psy Shop and Juno. I play zero top 40 so I can’t help you there.

    Thank you all. I appreciate all the help. I will check out that site DJ possess. I mostly play house,progressive house and trance. I just need some top 40 for regular gigs. Like weddings and such.

    look up the top 200 most requested list, and get those on iTunes. For almost any EDM track go to Beatport. You can also download songs from places like Livingelectro.com and dubstep.com, but thats “wrong because its stealing” and more importantly you can’t be sure you are getting decent quality.

    Penetrate your favourite producers’ promo pools

    Playing unheard of tunes and rare remixes really sets you apart from the rest. These tracks aren’t yet available on any of the music retail stores. DJs who have these rare cuts and blow everyone’s head off are sometimes called “DJ’s DJs”. They have first-hand access to tracks that are only circulating within a small circle, sometimes referred to as a “promo pool”.

    These tracks aren’t yet available on any of the music retail stores.

    Getting access to the these tracks isn’t particularly hard: You can penetrate such circles is acheived by supporting the producer and his label. An easy way to do that is to email the label or producer directly and show support for their music. Ask nicely to be included in their promo pool and most of them will gladly accept, as long as you don’t share their music.

    Many producers release three or four tracks a month, and all producers need DJs to play their tracks in clubs.
    Your connections to producers and labels will definitely help you build an arsenal of tracks and remixes to enhance your unique style.

    Thank you so much. That is one of the most helpful tips that I have been given. I am going to give that a shot. How do I find their email addresses? I am not into sharing or stealing music. I believe in supporting the artists and producers. Thanks again for your help.
