For those who aren't aware, getting offered to play an essential mix is a huge honor in the electronic music world. Most of the mixes on this site are from artists giving it their very best. Cracking good work! This looks incredibly polished for a side project; are you planning on building it up?

Thanks for the kind words! Yes, we are planning on building it up. Just wanted to get it out and get some feedback.

  In case you don't know, the BBC is pretty happy to take down sites hosting their content. Be careful. I'm pretty sure Mixriot tried the same thing and got burned. Feedback-wise, you might want to look into more flexible search for non-standard letters. Concrete example, "Tiesto" returns no results, but "Tiësto" returns seven. I have a feeling most people are not going to take the effort to find an umlauted e and will just assume you don't have any of his mixes.

  Thanks for this! I've been out of good EDM mixes for about 5 years now because I didn't know where to get them. Podcasts just aren't the same...

  I hope you're going with this where i think you're going with this. This is way beyond essential mixes . . . I haven't come across one good dj mix sharing website out there. Linking to already hosted content is 100% the way to go. Please keep it going.

    Thats the plan, and you guys will be the one keeping this going. Thanks for encouragement.

      Let me create an account and link up my favorites mixes ... that'll let me shut down my ghetto attempt mix-list.tumblr.com :)

        You can create an account through facebook, then favorite mixes.

    Yep, right now I'm using Soundcloud and following a user on there who frequently posts new sets from popular artists. But it's just one user; I'd love to see that concept expanded upon and taken to a new site entirely. This site has been bookmarked; I'll be tracking to see where this goes!
