I've heard that Prime Cuts will start to put dubstep music tracks on a new disc.

Plus, I've hard that they stopped selling "radio edits" online.

Is this true?
 
If you heard it, it must be true.

What's true: Yes, the latest PrimeCuts release contains a folder of Dubstep tracks.

What's not true: "They" stopped selling "radio edits" online. First off, "They" does not refer to PrimeCuts... they don't sell anythiing online. What radio edits are you having trouble purchasing? Most songs can be found on iTunes or Amazon.

If I'm not mistaken, Amazon doesn't sell radio edits. I sure wish they would however. I've been caught several times where Amazon was my fallback and all they had were explicit versions.
 
If one has a question about Prime Cuts why doesn't one contact Prime Cuts/Jim Weitz? Ask 20 DJs get 20 answers! Just saying!
 
My answer is I think we need to hire Bren...99% of the time he responds before me and has the right answer. :)

dunlopdj: Can you please let me know (either posted here or email is ok too), where you heard that? Seems like someone has some bad information, so I'd like to get in touch to let them know.

To answer the questions...

- This week, as a special bonus, we offered a free bonus to our MP3 subscribers and included some Dubstep tracks on the disc. This was a one time bonus. We've already gotten a lot of feedback from people thanking us for doing that.

- I don't know what your other statement means. We are a radio company. We've been doing music for radio for about 25 years. Radio edits are the foundation of our PrimeCuts music service.
 
See! Now isn't that better? Straight from the "horse's" mouth! ;)
 
As always, if a song gets significant radio airplay, then we would service it on PrimeCuts. If it's a radio single going for adds, then we would put it on our HitDisc service. However, most Dubstep doesn't fall under either one of those categories. So, rather than change our service for a passing fad (anyone remember when all anyone wanted was Techno?), we decided we would do this special bonus. If I had to guess, the 9 songs we included, will satisfy the Dubstep needs of 95% of our subscribers.
 
It came from another DJ who I think uses another service and questioned my loyalty to PC.

Thanks for the confirmation Jim...never in doubt...

I can appreciate that Jim, Although this " Fad " Seems to be the direction all music is heading. We'll see what happens, ya never know
 
So far, I am pleased w/ the MP3 Cds (no gigs yet), but that and RPM's MP3 DVD make for a very complete library. :)
