10 DJ Websites All DJs Should Know About

As modern DJs, we’re all very active online. Whether updating social media, downloading the latest tracks or simply updating software, we all have our go-to websites. In this article, we will cover ten websites that all DJs SHOULD know about! All of these websites offer something unique to every DJ, whether it’s trying to search for new music, adding tools to your DJ sets or becoming more engaged in DJ culture.

1. 1001 Tracklist – Find tracklists from your favourite DJs

Long gone are the days of Shazzaming your favourite DJ’s latest set, searching endlessly for the exact remix they played. 1001 Tracklists is a fantastic tool that lists entire playlists from live sets, radio shows and streams. From Daft Punk to James HYPE, you can find every track and the all-important remixes that your favourite DJ recently played. Curated by a hand-picked specialist team, 1001 Tracklist is the ultimate tool for finding songs to make every set stand out.

2. Rekord.Cloud – All in One Library Management System

Looking for the ultimate tool to manage your DJ library? This might just well be it. From automatically fixing insufficient track data to converting entire libraries, Rekord.cloud is an incredibly impressive software solution. We’re big fans of Rekord.cloud, using it to clear almost 16GB of duplicates and unused tracks in our library alone! You can even use their full online demo to explore the vast arrange of tools available; click here to try them now! Please note they have recently changed their brand to Lexicon, however the tool has only improved along with a new name. I wonder if Pioneer DJ weren’t happy about them using the word Rekord?!

3. Hypeddit – Free Music Downloads

Most DJs will have used Hypeddit already, even if they weren’t initially aware of it. Hypeddit provides the popular fan gates used by producers on sites such as Soundcloud to convert downloads into social media activity. Although Hypeddit is a fantastic tool for producers, the website also serves as an excellent place for DJs to find trending tracks. The top downloads section shows the top 100 downloaded songs of that week, in essence creating an unofficial Soundcloud chart!

4. LALAL.IO – Vocal Extractor

Acapellas are incredibly powerful creative tools for a DJ. However, they are often tough to find. LALAL makes creating high quality acapellas a simple task, breaking uploaded tracks into instrumental and acapella versions with impressive results. LALAL is free for users to process up to 10 minutes of audio, easily enough for most DJ tracks. Try it for yourself by clicking here.
