Admit it – you are one of those who criticize beatport for monopolizing the electronic music market and nevertheless, you buy from it and check out their charts and are even proud if you are listed anywhere in the top 100.
Frankly speaking, I am not the biggest fan of beatport, as I think they do have their favourite picks which makes it harder for newcomers to get acknowledgement, but I do look at some charts and check out the newbies there as well – and, of course, download some digital music if needed. For being the largest platform to purchase electronic music, beatport does deserve credits at this point.
For the 8 year anniversary, beatport has Watergate on their side – and presents a fabulous line-up including Maceo Plex, head of Ellum Audio (BAZAR released on it – the “Hard to find” EP is a very good tune – recommending!)
Spring is coming, and Watergate gets more and more attractive again – come by and have a blast with world’s most trendy portal site & crew at the time!
