Are you going to get more DJ tools and other genres??

I would grab them if they were realy worth a damn...... the only one I see on there that is any good is the drumline riddim stuff

When someone's giving you something for free no need to dis them. If I went into a record shop and wanted one out of seven things played to me that would be a fair average. So, one tune out of seven for free looks like a good thing to me.

My cup is half full......

a "Download all" option for releases would be handy (downloading the clean/dirty/instru/acap all at once)

thanks for keeping whitelabel alive! Looking forward to the final release.

Props to the mods 4 keeping this thing alive, I can only imagine the fight ya'll are having with the record labels!

I know how it can be! I used to deal with them on and off!

Industry Rule# 4080 - Record company people are shaaady!

Thanks for the feedback! Wiley - My Mistakes [Big Dada] went online yesterday, there's more to come today.

If there's anything you really like let us know in the Release Feedback forum -> beta.whitelabel.net


Yep :) That's planned, but a way off because we have a lot of record label stuff to do first.

Until then you could try using Firefox -> www.mozilla.com

With the Download them all extension -> www.downthemall.net

checked it out...it's great I love it haha

dammit, i *just* picked up that wiley track from bleep.com last week :-\

How about letting dj's post remixes on whitelable.net

thats been discussed before and from what i remember it wud cause to many problems with copyright!

just like what has been said befor...that is technicaly illegal. UNLESS you have gotten permission from the record labels to make the remix. Sense Serato is working with the labels to get this going for us.. how whould it look to the labels if the SSL team allowed us to put up ILLEGAL files from the labels that are working with serato to get this going

YEP !!!

Forget the legal aspect of it. I don't want to degrade the quality of the music uploaded.

+10000000

woah, are we having constant updates on whitelabel now? Anychange we could get a mailing list going to let us know when ya'll add new stuff?

I'm happy now :)

We don't have any DJ tools lined up but we do have other genres. Today a drum & bass track went out, what genres are you after?


Yep, at some stage.

House/Techno/...

will there be any kind of electronic music?

me too me too!!

Electro, Progressive, Trance

------------->> HOUSE <<------------------
+ Electro
+ Progressive House
+ Trance
+ Funky House
+ Commercial House

WOO HOO!

Nu Sound - Broken Beat - West London stuff please :)

I'm with KaGeN on this !!

Bmore, all types of house from downtempo, funky, tribal, electro, etc

Oh and throw in some drum and bass!

YES... Some BMore stuff would be dope.

yeeesss some freakin' EDM....please=)

man I feel bad for the guys running WL now. All of us requesting stuff. I wonder if they feel like a DJ at a gig with a bunch of annoying girls hehe.

keep up the good work rane.

Haha! Unlike those gigs we want to know what you're after. Keep it coming.

haha awesome! That's what I love to hear.

some material from gamm records wud be nice, same goes for om records

2nd OM RECORDS, oh and add Naked Records as well

OK - do you receive promos from those labels at the moment?

+2

please,please dont just upload crap pop r&b + hip hop.

lets not make WL in to the next digiwax!

country!






(jk ... ::hides::)

they upload that ever the record companies gives them

but its great to see a smaller lable like ninja uploading tracks.

the SSL guy's just need to send a lot of email's out to the smaller guys.
help them push new music,not that MTV shit!

is'nt that why we become DJ's..........the music,not the money?

Ummm did someone say money?

Dude u can make money being a DJ? Damn that's cool, where have I been?

LMAO

lol
some do ....most dont!

I was being a smartass, which is my usual self!

I get paid too! But I mainly do it cuz I love the money.....oops, I meant music...really!

i know you was,i also get paid, some times!
for me it's the music ,19 years of dj'ing and still love it!

We want whitelabel.net to carry a diverse range of music. We are actively pursuing many of the smaller independent labels, as well was working with the majors.

Does this mean we'll see Soulja Boy on Whitelabel?! I'd love you if you did put Crank Dat on Whitelabel. =P

i get the odd OM promo from another record pool, does that count?

Yeah, nice, are those promos vinyl? If so, would you prefer digital promos?

sorry i meant to say its adigital record poll!

2 new releases just up.

Bloc Party - Helicopter [Dim Mak Records]
Christing - Lose Control [Tony Mercedes International]

What's everyone's favorite so far?

I like those Christine tracks + the Electric Avenue. They are quite versatile.

I suggest the label True Thoughts if you can?!
www.tru-thoughts.co.uk

The drumline riddim is a good look. Bloc Party is cool but super old. I'll play it early night.

Thanks for the feedback, can you please place it in the Whitelabel release feedback area too? Its here: beta.whitelabel.net

That way you'll be encouraging the record labels to send you more music.

+1

We'll see what we can do :)

Play Digital
Portamento
craft music
xfer records
rising music

I dld "timeline" and its 32 kbps?!?!

+1000!!!

Add Naked Records, Om Records, Ministry of Sound, etc etc etc!

Cool, keep it coming.

Another release just went out, move reggae from VP:

Tanya Stephens - These Streets [VP Music Group]

<3 you guys!

i wonder how into this the EDM indie labels would be... From what I understand, a lot of these labels make most of their money off vinyl sales to DJs and having their tracks available for all SSL DJs to download will likely cut into their sales.

I know promos are usually just given out on a sort of "VIP" basis...

Stones Throw people.

in houses glass

Label recommendations:

Funk Weapons
Fort Knox Recordings
Jalepeno

hahahahaha! You fool! hahahahaha! That was so funny.

lol

OMG, BEST POST EVER!!!!

Yep, that's right. Some are choosing to try out Whitelabel.net to reach new markets, some have almost given up on making money out of selling music altogether and simply want to get their music out there to enable them to do more gigs (where the real money is...)

Two Releases out today:

Hi-Tek - Where It Started At (NY) [Babygrande Records]
Hi-Tek - Can We Go Back [Babygrande Records]

Those are definitely some nice tracks dave. :P Although a bit late, it's good to see progress of any kind.

Damn babygrande be droppin sh*t constantly! It'd be Kewl as f*ck to see the record labels do a "back log" of all their artists tracks!

Meaning they would just hand over the old school tracks from their artists to SSL since they had already been released years prior!

Imagine having the entire Def Jam catalog!

now that wud be sweet

Yup it'd be sick to come on to whitelabel and hit the download button and...

BAM!!!!!

The entire DEF JAM catalog from the start of the label!

Yo Rane/Whitelabel work on that.... That's a shitload of artists!

Two Releases out today:

Romeo - Special Girl [GoDigital Records]
Master P - I Love This Game [GoDigital Records]

Alot to ask for labelography's, they are PROMO's of new stuff to play out since you are working dj's!

BUt that totaly oposite then what whitelable is meant to do....

a record pool is for the lables to get NEW tracks into the hands of DJ to help promote the new stuff... they are not there just for us to get free music... it so we help promote the new shit (and yes.. i do mean SHIT in alot of cases)

thats why you have the chance to preview the track before you download it.

The Brand New Heavies Remix EP on Delicious Vinyl is out today, with remixes by Kenny Dope!

Whitelabel.net is the ONLY place you'll get this as a FREE digital promo.

Download it here -> beta.whitelabel.net

Let us know what you think of it here -> beta.whitelabel.net

More feedback means more music :)

This is a very dope release!!

Wont let me download :P

DAMMIT ALL TO HELL!!!

Right.. only one file is downloading. I assume they are still uploading. But then... my suggestion would be that the release should not be visible until all files can be dl'ed.

3 files... sorry.

Which one works nik?
I got a gig in one hour!!!

The last three. But judging from your feedback on wl.net I dont think you will like those tracks. Did you preview them?

BNH is the shit Nik!
IM feeling Jan Vs. Players mix for sure.
And the Tom Moulton will be manipulated.
You are right about the "reggae mixes" though,
a little too stiff for my tastes.

Where is the Heavy Rhyme Experience part 2?

They're all there now. Sorry about that.

Yep. Agreed. We have some checking for that, but some conditions have slipped through as unchecked. I'm working on it so that that can't happen in the future...

Cool, links work now. But all those track show a "Corrupt image tag" message displayed on the album art.

thanks for these releases!

You asked for more versions of the Heathen Riddim, you got it -> beta.whitelabel.net

We have a Soulwax remix of the Klaxons out today too. Its from a single-sided, numbered and limited to 2000, etched 12".

Nice one VP and Dim Mak Records.

OH SHIT! Now that's whassup! Thanks Dave!

nice

I Love It
Propz

Delicious Vinyl have added another track to the Brand New Heavies release:

Let's Do It Again (Philippians Remix)

Download it here: beta.whitelabel.net

I got my tshirt. Thanks to Dave and everyone at Serato.

i want one....

ShaneC won that t-shirt from this contest: scratchlive.net

Post some feedback and you might win the next giveaway.

Two new Releases for you

N.O.R.E. - Set It Off [Babygrande Records] [Babygrande Records]
Tortured Soul - Why/Fall In Love (TS Live Remix 2007) [Delicious Vinyl]

Sorry if this was discussed already... but why are these tracks 32kbps????

They're 320kbit if you play them in Scratch LIVE. In all other programs they play as 32kbit.

what's the science behind that. i still don't get it?? how does it know to switch

ancient Chinese secret, huh?

Watchwww.youtube.com

Magic :)

ive been curious too about it, ive also been wondering if the serato/whitelabel team are going to incorporate expiry dates into the files... i know most of you will hate me for it, but doesnt it make sense that after a few months, its not really a promo track anymore?

Interesting. However, the world of Promo doesn't work that way. It could be more than months before a track "expires" or happens to be a hit. Do you know the meaning of "sleepers"? I don't think putting a time limit is in the best interest of the labels. Besides, once it's out. It's out. It has spread like herpes and there's nothing you can do to stop it.

Why you crafty little... geniuses.

I know how they work :P

Give up the info Toby.

Well... I really don't care... SSL is the only thing I'd use the files with anyway...

Get some more house guys! Its getting better!

They got house tracks up?

a handful of house.

I'm pretty stoked that whitelabel.net is providing some non-mainstream labels. There's enough record pools to get your daily dose of top40 shit out there...

Stoked that guys like ninjatune are on board...

Looks like I gotta get back onto whitelabel and have a listen!

+1

i know the guys at ninja are fans of SSL ,kev(dj food)& Dk did their last mix CD on 57's

For drum and bass record companies, I highly recommend 'Hospital Records' and 'Shogun Audio'.

VIP remixes of established drum and bass tunes would be amazing!

(Sorry about double-post)

Also, it might be worth tracking down DJ Marky and see if he'll give a release or remix.
I saw him last week at One Nation 'Clash of the Titans' at Brixton Academy. I know he's on your list of 'DJ's who use Serato Scratch', but actually seeing him plug in Serato Scratch and do a set was awesome!
Considering D&B can be quite an elitist vinyl genre, it was good seeing a top D&B dj use digital. Gives me hope... ;P

(Apologies for Triple Post!)

I see Serato is one of the sponsors for the 'Sun and Bass' event. It might be worth using the opportunity of close proximity with D&B dj's to see if they'll be keen in getting involved.
Also, any perks for owners of Serato Scratch when going to events sponsored by Serato? ;P

Its all appreciated LazyGun :) Are you going to Sun and Bass?

Alas, not this year.
I spent a lot of money (read: overdraft) buying my turntables and Serato, which cut into my holiday funds.
However, I've already planted in my friends the seed of thought to camp on the beach and go next year.
Tell me if it's any good :)

I wish I was going!

What do the Serato staff do to decide who goes to events they sponsor, draw straws? ;P

They have a 'Best Pavlova Recipe' contest... the battles have been quite heated with a bevy of claims of vote rigging.

:P

Haha, how on earth does someone from Detroit know what a pavlova is?!?

Thanks serato, great to see u guys are pushing artists forward thru the SSL community, to be honest i didnt expect u guys to be that organised at all...
Well Done!

Indi.
~(8-D

Another Drum and Bass record label to get on the blower:
RAM Records

i though it was RAMM Records

Nah, RAM -> www.ramrecords.co.uk

I Have some D&B with RAMM Records label on them... thats why i thought that

For real - what ones?

ahhh never mind..... i just saw it is RAM records.. they justr label them with the code RAMM

www.discogs.com

the politik are BIG.

I just rebuilt them again and still corrupt.

SSL version 1.7.4 Candidate 2

Thanks sixxx.

Scratch LIVE 1.7.4 RC 2 deals with them well, the problem is our Whitelabel file encoder.

The record label uploaded mono files for that and our encoder didn't deal with it well.

We've fixed the encoder already but we have had to remove that release until we get stereo source files.

Coolness. I will delete the ones I have then and wait for the new ones. I had already isolated them from my music folder.

Thanks!

Can't wait for 1.7.4 final so I can actually play some of these tracks!

If you've seen the Serato Scratch LIVE band demo with the Opensouls (on our DVD, Watchwww.youtube.com, or downloaded from here -> scratchlive.net), OTA is the guy on guitar & keys.

Same.

My question is.... if these files are for use in SSL... why dont they come with pre-built overviews?

and if they ARE already Pre-Built.. why- when I add them to SSL- if i hit the build overview button it starts building them again?

My answer to this post on the Whitelabel forum..

cool thank you... It was just something i was wondering.... just to make sure it was supposed to be like that now

im sure its dope, but bottom line i will not use any file that contains drm. I am sure most pro djs will agree, thats not where the future is headed. I def understand what u guys are tryin to do, but something does not sit right with a file like that. my 2 cents

Me.. being a pro DJ (in the sense that DJing is what I do for a living) LIKE the WhiteLabel service. I dont consider it DRM in the sense that I CAN still play them in other apps.... but the only app that i will use them live in is SSL. So speak for yourself with that comment.

"thats not where the future is headed. I def understand what u guys are tryin to do, but something does not sit right with a file like that. my 2 cents"

aka i want it drm free so i can dl it and spin it in my virtual dj/traktor app. I don't get 1 once of logic from your statement.

Today:

Ghetto Brown - I Got It [Next Plateau Entertainment]
beta.whitelabel.net

i use serato, no logic huh? u crazy kidd, who wants limitations on their music, i dont... Just dont sit right with me. No need to act like a prick tho

Exactly.... but is it really YOUR music? Think about that.

Hey prizo - yes Whitelabel audio files have DRM. If you choose not to use this service, that's cool, but you might change your mind if Whitelabel.net was the only place to get a particular release you wanted.


Please remember rule #1 of this forum - be nice to others: scratchlive.net

I must admit we were already talking to them when you wrote this, I just wanted to look cool ;)

there are two things you can do to help us to get more labels on board - 1) provide feedback for the releases that we're currently putting out (over here: beta.whitelabel.net ) and 2) if you have contact with labels, even if it's just via their info@ address or web forum, let them know that you want them to check out whitelabel.net ... if they know there is demand, they'll be a lot more receptive when we call.
Thanks for all your support so far, it's all coming along nicely!

New releases today:

Mavado - Dying [VP Records] beta.whitelabel.net
Romeo - I'm Fly [GoDigital Records] beta.whitelabel.net

nice.... thanks!!!

i feeel you dave, i completely understand, i was really just asking if you guys would ever consider droppin the drm in the future. I am all for being nice and civil, there is no need for dude to cop an attitude tho. Thank you for your fast and detailed response.

Yep, we're talking to labels about non-DRM delivery too. Keep in mind that if we do non-DRM delivery most labels will be sending to their A-list DJs only. Most labels won't want to give out non-DRM music to thousands of DJs they don't know.

Where is the a-list option in my profile? I can't find it. :-(

thanks i'm njiew

lol @ nik39

They don't know us?!?!?

Let me clarify my statement.

I didn't mean that a record label will not know anyone here, but it is unlikely that they will know every Scratch LIVE DJ personally.

So, what is the answer to your question? Do you know the promo people at the record labels you want promos from? If we were to deliver non-DRM mp3s, Whitelabel.net would probably work the same way as has done for years.. if you have a good relationship with the record label you'll be on their list, and you'll receive their promos.

Record labels already have the ability to send to a particular list of DJs, and as I've been saying, I think that feature would be used most of the time if they were to deliver non-DRM files.


Haha, that's coming soon, just check the box if you are an "A-list DJ".

Today:
Tiki - Tangaroa - God of the Sea (EP) [Tikidub]

Yesterday:
Various Artists - Riddem Driven - Jam Down Riddem [VP Records]
Bloc Party - Price Of Gas [Dim Mak Records]

The day before that:
Mumbles - Embrace The Mystery [Sound In Color]
Barakas - Stabilo Bossa [Tru Thoughts]
Mochipet - Scissors For Lefty Ghetto Ways Remix [Daly City Records]

Download them all here: beta.whitelabel.net

So in essence, it would be exactly the waty things are now but only referenced with a link to your site?

still hoping for a "download all" option - especially for those reggae/dancehall riddim packs...

btw, really liking that Mumbles track and the Tiki ones are pretty cool too (although a little leftfield).

i haven't seen this record pool since it first started...wow its changed alot, i'm liking it. hopefully the full site will be open soon.

once released...will we have to register again?

Nope :)

A download all option is coming, but until then try following the instructions here -> beta.whitelabel.net

Let the labels know you like those tracks too.

Today:
J.R. Writer - Where You At [Babygrande Records]

Two days ago:
Noelle - Break Up [One Stop Digital/B-Funk Records]

Download them here -> beta.whitelabel.net

fantastic releases this week! woohoo!

I Love It Tkns

good job, I like the diversity

Thanks, we're working on it!

YES! Nice job guys!

quick question...renaming tags won't affect quality when played thru SSL, correct? Just makin sure.

Some tag editing programs can damage Whitelabel mp3s. To be on the safe side it's best to only edit the tags of Whitelabel files in Scratch LIVE itself.

Good lookin matt! Nice job on the diversity of the uploads!

ha.. i got the mstrkrft rmx of D.A.N.C.E. like 2 weeks ago... but dont have the others... thanks matt

Today:
Various Artists - Riddim Driven - Tremor Riddim [VP Records]
Chromeo - Tenderoni [VICE Records]

Before that:
Delani - Butterflies [feat Monsta Ganja] [Handmade Records]

Download them here -> beta.whitelabel.net

PLEASE give feedback to the labels here -> beta.whitelabel.net

More feedback means more music.

Nice, two more Tenderoni remixes I don't have. Thank you guys!

good looking on the Chromeo.

nice one...

i dont know much about reggae but with the reggae releases theres like 5+ tracks all with the same beat,is that common with reggae?

Um, yes.

it's a standard thing in reggae and has been going on for years. A lot of artists utilize the same instrumental or "riddim" and the DJs will cut between like 4 or 5 songs with the same riddim.

The riddim packs on whitelabel are one of coolest things I've seen from any promo service...

also known as the dub track in Reggae

i think it started baxk in the 60s... A lot of vocalists were too poor to afford the studio fees for recording their own instumentals so they just bought pre-existing tracks.

It has since been part of the culture of reggae/dancehall where different artists record different songs using the same instrumental

no it started wit the "Selector" (the dj). then the DeeJay's (the party pumper/rapper/vocalist) would do his/her thing over the selectors riddim when one of the "Sound Systems" came around (the big names Selectors had their own TRAVELING sound systems that when set up made an outdoor club for the area they set up in. the Selectors NAMED their sound systems and thats how people knew what party was going on by the sound system names

i know about the sound systems and the whole dubplate culture, but i believe before that artists would record over existing riddims simply to save money in studio time

Thanks, we love it too.

To find out more about the riddim culture check out Lloyd Bradley's Bass Culture, When Reggae Was King, or This Is Reggae Music: The Story of Jamaica's Music as its known as in the US. Its easily the most interesting music history book I've read.

shot guys for the knowledge.

bass culture,when reggae was king ,is a great book.
i loved it,could'nt put it down,need to get another copie as i lent it to someone and never got it back :(

Maybee not as comprehinsive but Last night a dj saved my life also has some good info on reggae sound systems

hiya nick,your right last night a dj saved my life is also a great book,when i was teaching DJing i made students read it for homework.

yeah.. I tell anyone interested in Dj that they HAVE to read that book and those arthors other book "How To DJ Right" b/c they are both good books

yeah how to dj right has been updated too!

To include digital dj'ing!

Is there a mention of Serato in the new How To DJ Right?

im not too sure Dave I never bought the newer copy as I allready had the old one!

I'll go waterstones (bookstore) & see!!

Today: The Broken Keys - Redlight [Tru Thoughts] beta.whitelabel.net

Today: Free The Robots - Jazzhole [Elsewhere Studios] beta.whitelabel.net

nice!!!!!

More pella's & instrums with releases would be dope too!

Keep up the good work guys!

Also Dave imma go waterstones on saturday so I'll let you know about the serato in how to dj right then!

Unless you allready know & I can save myself the trip!

Ha ha ha sorry for the triple post but I just read my last post back & sound Like he who must not be named

You

Allready

Are there gonna be Music Videos on here after the SLV comes out in January?

thats a good question.

i'm also curious how SSL2 will work with the 57...

SSL2?

I'm sure he means scratch live video plugin

nope... i hear rumors that this time next year there will be a new SSL... i'd love a mod to squash that... but that is one reason i'm holding off on the 57... i want to make sure if there is a SSL2 that the 57 would carry over

I'm sure it will get to 2.0 in a year....that make sense

Mark Ronson's label Allido Records presents Wale - Nike Boots:
beta.whitelabel.net

We've already got a connection with Company Flow when El-P signed up Definitive Jux. Now Mr Len from Company Flow has signed up his label, Smacks Records.

Smacks Records has something special for you – 30 records in 30 weeks! We're a bit behind schedule so this week we'll be giving you 7 records in 7 days to catch up. First up is Bully Mouth - Lemonade:
beta.whitelabel.net

Here's the press release for their 30 in 30 campaign.
For more information visit smacksrecords.blogspot.com

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Monday, October 29, 2007

Smacks Records, the label founded by Mr. Len (DJ/Producer of Company Flow, Jean Grae, formerly of Rawkus Records and Matador Records), is kicking off an unheard of new campaign for its upcoming releases. Starting November 7th and every Wednesday after that for 30 Weeks, Smacks Records will release a new song from its roster of artists. That's right- 30 songs in 30 weeks.

Smacks Artists include: Kice of Course, Mental Case a.k.a. Sal Diesel, BullyMouth, Roosevelt Franklin, Eff Radio, and Mr. Len. Collaborations with El Da Sensei, I-n-I and Lord Sear are also in the works. AMALGAMDIGITAL.com, known for re-releasing the Kurious album and putting out the sophomore Juggaknots album "You're Your Confusion", will host the weekly releases on-line.

And if that is not enough, SMACKSRECORDS.BLOGSPOT.com has been established to give fans insight into the songs straight from the artist's mouth (or mind and fingers).

The most asked question is, "how will people hear it?" All you need to do is turn on your XM receiver and listen to Spitkicker Radio and the soon-to-come Dummy Smacks Hour on The Rhyme 65 every week. Tune in as Mr. Len cuts it up for the kiddies!

very cool of them!

Smacks Records have sent out the following 7 tracks already, 23 to go!
Kice Of Course - Think Back beta.whitelabel.net
Bully Mouth - For Kicks beta.whitelabel.net
Bully Mouth - 7 A.M. Angel beta.whitelabel.net
Eff Radio - Close Up beta.whitelabel.net
Sal Diesel aka Mental Case - Bad beta.whitelabel.net
Kice Of Course - Jungles beta.whitelabel.net
Bully Mouth - Lemonade beta.whitelabel.net

And now you have Clean, Dirty, Instrumental and A Cappella's of every track from
Spank Rock and Benny Blanco are... Bangers & Cash.

VP Records' first release for the new year is a sampler of Strictly The Best 38 with tracks from Queen Ifrika, Tarrus Riley, Etana, and Duane Stephenson: beta.whitelabel.net

I want House release!
:)

they have released house stuff on it.. along with other types of EDM too

Same, we're working on getting more.

also don't forget those labels from spain such as stereo productions, stereo cool, iberican, etc,.......

For sure. Do you have any contacts at those labels?

New today:
Bully Mouth - Bully Bunch [Smacks Records] beta.whitelabel.net

Any possibility of perhaps getting some of the dirtstyle stuff on board!

Maybee some of A-Tracks Ammunition records I know A-Track is a serato user! Maybee he'd be up for some releases!

Some scratch plates & beats would be warmly recived by many I feel!

Speaking of A-Trak, Fools Gold would go down a treat the only contact i can find is there myspace though...

www.myspace.com

Nice to see the variety increasing on Whitelabel.. It is a great service for the SCRATCH Live users.

Finally getting some decent Tech, House stuff in there.

Maybe release some more of the classics from the Archive... hop-hop, electronic, whatever.

Danke!

Just actually check out whitelable.net

The few that I downloaded all had 32bit rate. What's the deal with that?

Here's su' um funky Rob, read the site and you'll find out that mp3's play at a low bit rate on regular mp3 players but at high quality in ScratchLIVE.

Check it Rob. It's funky. And easy to read.

Ha, weird.

How'd they do that I wonder

Magic.

It's got electrolytes!!!!

lol.

i just checked the whitelabel since the first i bought serato and there's not much for house stuff, anymore good things coming our way?
i did enjoy the revolver release but i have had that for some time

Oxide..
they are slow, or not getting many house items.

I would like more as well.

all in due time i guess...

Just now:
Santogold - Creator [Downtown Records] beta.whitelabel.net

Yo dave, if you could re-label the Gangsta Rap - House Shoes to (explicit/dirty) that might save some confusion. It's labeled as (Radio) and it is most def NOT the radio version. I had downloaded it and was pre-listening to it before my gig when I heard all the swear words.

Glad I checked it before actually playing it.

I'll have a look at it DJ Prinvale, chur for the heads up :)

New on Whitelabel today a couple of choice Smacks Records releases:

P.S. Could i get a T-shirt please??

Sorry if this was mentioned before Brigid or other Serato guys, but Ninja Tunes would be an amazing addition.

Bump!

+1 for Ninja Tune!

Ninja Tune are one of the labels signed to Whitelabel!

Release from the Qemists: beta.whitelabel.net
Release from Hexstatic: beta.whitelabel.net

great to get ninja back on whitelabel,it stated getting like digiwaxx.
going to download right now :)

:( i already have the tracks,no way are they promo's ...................
oh no i'm getting that digiwaxx feeling again.


i'm not down with posting old tracks as promo's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
come on whitelabel get some new shit from ninja,i know kev(dj food) is a SSL fan.
this just aint good enuff!!!

oh and qemists are the best thing to happen to D'n'B in ages.

and hexstatic can rock a party big time!!!!!(go see them DJ),and do the best video mash up around!!!

how about some 7",10" or some slip mats

Yeah those are old releases from them, I was just pointing out that they were on there. Will be sure to let them know that there's interest for new releases though :)

ok that would be great,sorry for not seeing you was just pointing out some ninja releases,i've had a long day working a trade show and had one to meny beers :)

haha

well more like 4

sorry about the rant last night(see above) i was a bit drunk.

its been a while since we'va seen a DnB scene up in MTL. seems to be a dying breed of music. its gone the way of the 'lectro,lol. balistikgelhed knows what im sayin. u spin DnB dax?

DnB has been dead for a couple years now... :D doesn't make me sad... at all.

Actually I did go to a dnB party a couple weeks ago and the place was populated by smelly, sweaty hippies. Not really an attractive scene.

No worries about the rant Dax :)

New out today:

Kice Of Course - My iPod [Smacks Records] beta.whitelabel.net
KLC - Holla At Me (Whaaa) [Romeo Entertainment/Overdose Ent./One Stop Digital] beta.whitelabel.net

i spin a bit of D'n'B,i like all music,a good tune is a good tune,i dont care what style it is.

just wanted to say some of the releases lately have been pretty good. Original stuff most people wouldn't normally hear in a club.

I would however like to see more releases each week. Seems like WL gets about 2 to 3 releases a week which really isn't very much, especially if the releases aren't very good. A solid release pack (maybe 5 or more?) every wed or thurs (right before the weekend) with a handful of promos would be ideal imo. I'm probably just gettin greedy though :P

Two new releases from Dim Mak records out today:

The Bloody Beetroots - Butter beta.whitelabel.net
Shitdisco - OK beta.whitelabel.net

Thanks for the suggestions DJ Prinvale, will definitely have a chat to everyone about it.

No such release???

Yeah. That was my bad. I'm working on it. It'll be up really soon, will post when it is.

Alright, we're good to go now. Churp.

Hey guys, new release out today:

Emmanuel - Strobe Light [5th World Entertainment/One Stope Digital] beta.whitelabel.net

Stay tuned this week for a few more killer releases.

Fresh business from Daly City Records out this morning (or afternoon depending on where ye are):

Mochipet - Microphonepet - Remixes Vol. 1 beta.whitelabel.net

More great Reggae today from the team at VP Records:

Various Artists - Riddim Driven - Rub-A-Dub Riddim beta.whitelabel.net

Just a question... will WL.net ever come out of the beta stage?

lol.. i was thinking the same thing.

Whitelabel.net.... VHS ... has a nice ring to it.

My answer is yes.

You know how we are with our beta's :)

it's like google...every app they release is in Beta, no matter how many years we have been using the "untested" product.

...So i just realized something...aren't we like...liable for being sued if we download these tracks without paying for them, and then playing them (and then getting payed for playing them)? Or do you guys work out a deal with the record labels or something?

p.s. I realize that's kind of a stupid question, but i'd rather ask it and feel like an ass than not ask it and...get into legal stuff.
also, I'd love to give reviews of this stuff, but i can't post for some reason, it says that i need to accept terms and conditions.

Everything is 100% legal.

Posting in the Whitelabel.net forum is exactly like posting in the Scratchlive.net forum - you have to accept the terms first. Is there any problems you have with them at all? There's no secret "By accepting this you now owe Serato your first born child" clause, I promise.

That's what they all say.

Serato took my baby away :-(

lol

Hahaha :)

Released today:

I like the reggae. :)

Brigid, they purposefully spell it "riddim" to simulate how it sounds in Jamaican patois.

They purposely spell it patois cause ducks are involved. lol

Hey bourbon, yeah I guess they decided not to spell it riddim this time around.

Owned! Zing! lol

My bad, I didn't even look. I figured you were just trying to correct their spelling. :)

Haha, yeah, normally I'm a spelling dictator. But it seems in this case, the shoe was on the other foot, my dear Watson.

btw, is there a section for suggestions regarding the layout of Serato's Whitelabel format?

- is there a way to navigate and preview/download by genre?

- also, is there a way to have an area to the side that contains links to other artists/songs that are similar or what other members have liked as well (kinda like what iTunes does)

Good question, no we don't have a Whitelabel feature suggestions area. But anywhere is fine, we're watching ;)


We don't have a dedicated genre browse, but you can type "Funk" into the search to browse all funk releases


Not yet :)


And just in case anyone missed the Whitelabel News 004 email:

22 NEW RELEASES OUT THIS WEEK

That's far too many for me to type here.

tanx :)

Howdy, some new releases out today:

Santino - My Girl [Seven Star Records] beta.whitelabel.net
Culture & The Deejay's - Culture & The Deejay's At Joe Gibbs 1977-79 [VP Records] beta.whitelabel.net
Supastition - Unreleased Remixes [Reform School Music] beta.whitelabel.net

Sup Brigid.

I noticed more and more lately that some of the newer tracks don't have a "preview" to listen to them before download, and I'm noticing more not being tagged dirty / clean / radio.

This just how to get the tracks from the studios? No preview = no download.

Hey Prinvale,

All of the tracks should have previews next to them - can you see the play icon next to the download icon? Do you click on it and nothing happens?

they are showing up now. A few days ago I could see the download icon but not the preview icon. Probably a browser issu (FF 3), but it's happened more then once.

Thanks Prinvale. The previews should be there for all releases. Sometimes they are a bit slow to show up, and sometime they fail to play. We're looking at ways to fix them.

Wasabi! New releases out today:

Dennis Brown - "A Little Bit More" Joe Gibb's 12" Selection (1978-83) [VP Records] beta.whitelabel.net
