    Acapellas4u.co.uk is probably the best thing I have come across so far.

    All those music blogs out there where people aggregate their favorite recent releases. It makes digging for tracks much easier, especially for artists that I have not yet heard of. They also provide an endless supply of quality tracks that maybe only tens or twenties of DJ’s know about.

    However, I agree with U31 that mixcloud is incredible, especially when starting out as a new DJ; I can listen to mixing techniques, analyze track selection and the flow of the mix all while doing homework, or cleaning the apartment.

    … And even follow the links to buy a tune you like, or there is also a link to other djs that have used that tune, to give you a chance to listen to how others have used it, and also give you more of an idea of other tunes you may not have considered will go with the tune you are following in different mixes

    Podcasts for sure. free live weekly mixes from some of the biggest name djs in the biz. anybody whose somebody should have a podcast.

    Its fast, easy, n free on mobile on any itunes combatable* device.

    IMO best n by far easiest way to find “good” new music. big name producers filtering out hundreds of songs n hand picking the best. also comes with track listings.

    My personal favorites in edm
    W&W main stage
    First state
    Iclub Edm n iclub dub
    Armin state of trance
    Above n beyond
    Tiesto club life

    justdohits – they post on a regular basis new songs that are about to be released on beatport
    and give dates on when the track will be released, sometimes accompanied by videos on youtube. I highly recommend
    this blog as a legit resource for digging through music. I liked the blog so much I sent a personal email telling them, something never did until I came across it.

    Uh, I’ll say what Dayvue said in fewer words.

    Hype Machine.

    Hello every remix by every relevant artist you’ll ever need.

    @ Schies – He’s a House dancer and bboy, too, so you know there’s going to be good music up there.

    @Cool Cats – I prefer certain blogs to Hype Machine because in order to get on Hype Machine, songs first have to become popular before they get on there. This is a way to dig a little deeper and find the gems that few in the EDM community know already.

    @Dayvue – If you mean the popular charts, yes. If you mean the songs, no. I read about 40 music blogs a day, and all the blog has to do is post the song for it to show up on Hype. You just follow said blog on Hype and in your feed, all of that blog’s music is available to skim through. This is an easier way to dig a little deeper without having to visit every blog multiple times a day.

    I’d still rather read STG, Vacay Wave or Earmilk, but for the tiny blogs that generally have garbage writing and post solid tracks, it saves a bunch of time.

    The tunein radio app. If I ever need some motivation, I can just dial up Saigon, or Africa, or Venezuela and vibe out.

    I love tune-in too!! The whole world in yours ears, on the go!!

    There is so many, but the one that is really starting to stand out for me is SpinUtopia (http://www.spinutopia.com).

    They’re an EDM focused network that provides users of all types an interactive platform and tools to connect and gain exposure across the scene.
