AlexJ Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 So im trying to find a heap of older 70's/80's/90's tracks various gigs i have coming up.Now where is the best place to find this sort of music? I can find most with a simple google search. is 128 and 192 kbs good enough quality? I dont really want to have to get like $150 on itunes just so i can get them at 256. But dont really want to convert them to mp3 from aac.So where do you get your normal tracks from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexJ Posted August 29, 2012 Author Share Posted August 29, 2012 does beatport do those sort of things? not looking for remixes. just the origionals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrismak Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 If you want lossless quality then buy CDs & rip to WAV/AIFF if you want more portable storage.That's what I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandy Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Hmm to be honest I'm not so sure now that i think of it, I can only think of say iTunes then which you already mentionedI can't for the fuck think of the other music sites, there's one that's like amazon.com that has mp3s of that kind of thing I can't remember it though sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexJ Posted August 29, 2012 Author Share Posted August 29, 2012 yer see i didnt know either. i knew i could rip them off cd. but that would cost a rediculous amount of $$ to buy all the tracks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OxyKon Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 If your looking for older style music I would suggest going to jb hi fi, they always sell the old stuff for nek to nothing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexJ Posted August 29, 2012 Author Share Posted August 29, 2012 would the 128 or 192's suffice over a pa at reasonably low volume? i mean those kind of tracks are never going to be played at thumping volume over a sub or anything like that. they are in reality just backing music for the kind of functions they will be played at Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your not looking for anything particular anyway. If you are you may need to buy the tracks individually if they are not on a compilation.

thenatrix Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Has anyone tried SBA music? Thinking of getting their monthly chart hits CD so we always have current music. They don't have a digital download option yet unfortunately. They also have 80s, 90s compilations- though we have most of that already- just need to keep up to date. It is a little pricey at $27 per CD- compared to ERG music in the states that does the same thing for $18 for two cds:/ But they won't post it to Aus due to licensing issues. http://sbamusic.com.au/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREMM1S Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 How can a company not have digital distribution these days, have been thinking about something like dj city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenatrix Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Yeah they said they were working on it. Disappointing that Australian businesses seem to be so behind the times & expensive! Thanks for the DJ City heads up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
