Personally updated a buncha trks in Mp3Crackhouse's Club section & Promo4DJs over the weekend. Oh yeah - Tuffcub is back online.
Digging from the bag of crazy emails that I receive from the site daily - Please read the following - we managed to convert another. Emails like this proves that specialized sites like mine encourage the consumer to purchase dance music & support the artist -
" I'm an oldschool head banger that now listens to a lot of rap, a little r&b, and a select few metal & alternative bands. Since I moved to Brussels I have had to rely on the internet to fuel my musical desires because of the high cost in music here. Back home in Edmonton it could cost me about $15 a CD, and here the prices are double that! So since I've been surfing the net to fulfill my music jones I discovered a new type of music that I like. I don't know how to define it but my favorite CD is Breakbeat Era. I discovered them through the great guys at d-emporium. I downloaded the album and I was constantly playing it. When I went back to Edmonton for Xmas I had a hard time hunting down the album and I had to pay more than I usually do for a CD, but I knew it was worth it. So you guys have definitely converted me. Before I used to think all this type of stuff was that sucky techno stuff you hear on the radio and crappy Western Canadian small city clubs. But you guys have definitely opened my eyes. I can't believe I had to come all the way to Brussels to experience this. Thank you for letting me into your house." - Mike Mattai - Heck ya - everyone is welcome at our house!!
(21/03/00) Sneak update, heh heh - A full album this time - E=VC˛ mixed by Victor Calderone - another exclusive album released here, ripped by my crackhouse associate Morphon. Only quality here - this album is for u tribal refugees - get it in albums now!

Submissions - my scsi harddrive for the ftp crashed - pls no more net dj mixes submissions - I dont have any more space. Please hold tight until we get the stuff sorta out.
Taking a moment to savour this victory (or bragging rights...heehee). We're the absolute #1 winners of DeeJayWorld.com. The only DJ site voting site that matters (been around for like over 4 years).
Also vsited the offices of the folks that will be my new hosts at bla-bla.com. They are dilligently setting up the new site. We hope to move to our new servers by Feb. For now, I need u folks to donate new Tripod or Geocities accounts to post these HOT new CDs I have. Info in the submissions section. Btw - the accounts need to have a valid email or else they will kill off the accounts right away. Thanks!
Many thanks to those who have signed my guestbook! I check it often & the djs that post their works here do too and totally appreciate the nice words! As a lotta folks that visit here are DJs or work related in dance music (not everyone here is a mp3 criminal u know!) - all mixes posted here are meant to be spread! On behlaf of all the DJs here, u have full permission to do whatever u want to the mixes! Send it to a friend, spin it in yr clubs, play it on yr radio stations! The more stations the merrier!
New Year's Resolution - Quantity of Quality Trks. Deeper house. Harder house. More trance/UK. Death of hip-hop in the dancefloor page. Replacing it with Eurodance like DJ Jurgen's stuff.
We won!!! Out of like 5000 sites in deejayworld.com, we became the absolute #1 winners like netmix last year. Thanks everyone (taking a deep bow) for yr loyal support. We set a goal and actually made it! I think we shall disqualify ourselves so another site can win it next year.
DJ008® FAQs
Downloads FAQ
READ THIS, I won't reply to emails about downloading problems!!!
1 / 2 / 3 / 4 /5 means server sites for downloads. Right-click or Shift+click to download
Please do not use the same server numbers all the time. If server 1 is offline, try server 2, etc. If all are busy or offline, just try another day. All servers also only allow one download at a time. Let's be civil, please DO NOT hammer the servers, they will BAN you. They are run by home users just like u, if they go down, we all suffer (in that case, I'll just close this site).
Track names FAQ
 RMX = Remix.
MMX = Megamix.
Files with DJ008 at the front (eg. DJ008.-.4.Kings.MMX.mp3) means I made or remixed it.
Files that end with DJ008 at the back (eg. LFO.-.LFO.-.DJ008.mp3) means I ripped, encoded and/or distributed the mp3. If u r still confused, check the mp3 tags. Please don't re-tag the mp3s if u choose to pass these mp3 mixes around - allow the DJs their credit where it's due.
Resident & Debut DJs FAQ
Legal = Original or Given full permission to be posted here.
Mix = A straight forward mix with subtle editing
Remix/RMX = One or few trks and/or massive editing done to "remake" a trk.
Megamix/MMX = Furious mix with massive editing, usually about 2 or more trks per min.
This is the netDJ mixes process.
1 - U submit yr mix here - if u pass my ears, u get into the next update of debut djs.
2 - Your future mixes will automatically go to the following resident djs updates, plus a listing in netDJs profiles...now - to get into the elite section -
3 - If u somehow get signed by a major label (most prolly thru the scouts coming here) & I can get some sort of verification, u get to join the big boys.
4 - Just a club DJ? Nothing beats expierence. If U have over 10 yrs spinning & are smooth in yr mixes, yr in too.
5 - Just a bedroom DJ? - Monthly polls will determine yr entry - so u fans decide. Remember, u can only vote once, so choose carefully!
Why so critical - just look at the big names there - Even the famous Strobe had to go thru this entire process if u have been following this site. I don't play favourites.
Problems downloading? - I checked the Geocities accounts myself - ALL accounts working - Very simple stuff - RIGHT-CLICK/Save As (Netscape) or RIGHT-CLICK/Save Target As (IE) to download.
