Within Serato, you can see all of your Tidal playlist you’ve created. Once this is done, you are now ready to start using Tidal Streaming with Serato. You’ll be asked to log into Tidal from your default web browser. Once you are connected to your wifi, launch your Serato software, now open your Serato settings, go to the Library & Display tab and select Tidal as the streaming service. In order to use Tidal Streaming with Serato, you’ll need a WiFi connection.

So let’s get into how this service works and my experience. But as much of a Hip Hop fan I am, when I’m DJing, it’s Deep House, Deep Minimal (yes, that’s a thing) Lounge/Chillout and Afro-Brazilian, that’s my pocket. Some are curated others are just ridiculous and how is the artist getting paid from these rogue remixes. I found everything Pete Rock (one of my favorite producers) has released on Tidal. Tidal has just about everything when it comes to Hip Hop. I’ll get to my final conclusion later, but here are my thoughts about this service and how it may work for you.įirst and foremost, if you’re a Hip Hop DJ, you’ll love this service. However, I’ve been using the Tidal Streaming integration with Serato DJ Pro for a little over a month. Not to mention its ultra, extra compression it does to your music during uploads.

Let me start by dismissing SoundCloud as a true streaming service. Sorry Rekordbox and Virtual DJ users, you don’t have a streaming service integration…yet. Enter Tidal & Soundcloud Streaming integration with Serato DJ Pro (ONLY). Beatport doesn’t have the catalog like a true streaming service, such as Tidal, Spotify or Apple Music, so it’s going to be very interesting to see what “Beatport LINK” is all about and how its UI/UX will interact with other DJ software.įull circle and we now have other players jumping into the void left by Pulselocker. I did use the Pulselocker service with RekordBox…it was just ok. Serato, RekordBox and Virtual DJ users were FUCKED! Beatport later purchased Pulselocker and will inevitably launch a similar service, let’s call it “Beatport LINK” LOL. Remember when Pulselocker just got up one day and shut down its service.
