    Isolabella is indeed The Bomb.

    I have been told about many websites, but have yet to check them out, lol. What I tend to do is search for music by bands/DJs I like already, or one of the girls at work asks for. Instead of limiting myself to the one song they ask for or recommend, I will download a bunch of them by the same artist, especially remixes or songs they collaborated with other musicians on. Then if I like the remix and it says what DJ did it, I'll do a search for more of their stuff, ditto with the collaborating musicians.

    Some of my very favorite songs I have found totally by accident in this fashion. the drawback is, you might wind up with a zillion songs in your computer and at some point you have to go weed them out and delete a bunch--the truth of the matter is that truly outstanding songs are rare, then there's a lot of good ones, but most of them are schlock.

    I would highly recommend that you get Soulseek, it's a great source for music, especially techno and remixes, and it's free.

    Lexi,

    I buy a lot of my music from Beatport . They rip vinyl and sell it as digital downloads. They don't have every new release so I also check out the vinyl sites such as Juno. From there I find a dj in Soulseek who has a decent rip of what I want and trade.

    If it's electronic music you are looking for keep in mind that this music is made for beat matching and mixing. It will have 1-2 minute instrumental intros etc. You can tell your dj to queue songs later in, get radio edits, or get my radio edts in Soulseek. I rearrange the songs to give them more of a commercial format and fit the meat of the song into 3-4 minutes. Great for the SCs. My username is "isolabella_". Introduce yourself and I'll help you out.

    Djoser, havent see you in a while.
