Share my DJ mixes online
Hello everyone,
I'm new to DJing and really passionate about it and I do it as my hobby.
I want to start mixing tracks using my controller. However, I noticed that many tracks available on sites like Beatport have restrictions in their terms of use, preventing me from uploading my mixes to platforms like YouTube, SoundCloud, or Spotify.
I see many other DJs, from beginners to more experienced ones, uploading their mixes online. How are they managing this? Is there any way to legally mix tracks and share them without spending too much money?
I also saw in the terms that it's possible to contact the track's producer and request separate permission to use it. But from what I understand, this probably requires paying a significant fee (right?), As a beginner DJ who is doing this just for passion and has no income from it, how do people usually handle this?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
