http://www.darkaudio.co.uk is both an audio hosting and networking site for DJ's and a very large database of quality dance music! Use the search bar and genre drop down at the top of the page to find and listen to music. And please upload... it's all free.
We created the site in 2006 as a portal to store and share our own mixes, but then decided to make it freely available to other DJ's. Recently we launched v2.0 with new functionality and features. Please take a look at the site... it's free to upload and comment on mixes.

Thanks.
Yeah it's my site, but there's 4 of us involved. We had to figure out the design and coding ourselves so learnt a lot.
Developing it now for version 2.5.

also ...
I like the non-register ability to comment.
I enjoy critiquing tracks w/o that nonsense. ... s' nice.
To paraphrase an old quote from M.Verta .. most artists just don't want to face an honest and brutal critique, ..but that's exactly what they need.
...and I agree.
Tough love ... As it were.

Yeah but it may well turn into a Youtube bitchfest for that reason. Moderation is the key here but how long that can last for I don't know.
Example of the harsh critique by 'Guest':

Who doesn´t love dance.
Awesome webpage(bookmarked).
The only thing i missed is a tracklist for each mix. Sucks when you hear something good and don´t know who the artist is.

Cheers Rochr.
We did have a feature for that but removed it as it over complicated it a bit - if they want to add a tracklist they can put it in the comments.

I understand.
To bad though. TrackID and dancemusic in general is always a very bad combination.

Well we are adding this feature for the next version - just after we've redesigned the tabs so its less complicated.
