Beatport
The Download Store for Electronic Music
About Beatport
Beatport is the central marketplace for electronic music and the professional DJ market. Its genre taxonomy is granular to a degree no general-purpose service attempts -- separate charts for house, tech house, melodic techno, drum and bass, dubstep and dozens more -- and its Top 100 charts function as something close to trade press for the genre. A chart position there is read by promoters, labels and bookers.
It sells lossless downloads in WAV and AIFF because its customers are DJs who need them, and Beatport LINK streams the catalogue directly into DJ software. Reach is global and concentrated among working DJs rather than general listeners.
Audicient delivers to Beatport with lossless masters and precise sub-genre, key and BPM metadata, which is what determines where a release lands in its charts and whether DJs find it at all.
Delivering to Beatport
Lossless WAV and AIFF
Masters are delivered in the uncompressed formats DJs buy, rather than lossy files unsuitable for club playback.
Sub-Genre Chart Placement
Precise sub-genre tagging determines which of Beatport's granular charts a release competes in -- the difference between visibility and obscurity.
Key and BPM Metadata
Key and tempo are delivered as structured data, which is how DJs filter and build sets on the platform.
Beatport LINK Streaming
Catalogue becomes available through Beatport LINK, streaming directly into DJ software for performance use.
