Tags:

17 May 2004 No Comment

Do you collect old records? Is your life about searching for breaks and making beats from them? Do you want to learn about the beat digging/mining scene? AfricasGateway.com has been working hard to bring you the first African-based but global crate digging portal. Read more for info.

Purpose of the site:
-Facilitate discussion between serious crate diggers/producers on various topics.
-Producers can upload tracks and get them rated.
-Regular Beat Making Contests (Beats from Single Samples or Remixes from Accapella’s)
-Regular articles on dope but often forgotten records
-Places to dig
-What to look for when buying vinyl
-plus lots more.

Since running portals can be very hard work (believe us, we run AG and we are always stressed out!) we wanted to keep the site extremely simple.

Some questions you might be asking:

Q. Will the site replace AG?

A. Never. It is our sister site, in fact there will be many more. We are, as we’ve been saying all along, building the network.

Q. Will I see other topics on this new site?

A. No, it will only be about crate digging, sampling and beat making.

Q. Will there be forums?

A. Yes, the forums are going to be an integral part of the site. This is where you’ll be able to upload tracks and get them rated.

Q. Can I log in using my Africasgateway user name and password?

A. No, we did not integrate the database. Therefore you would have to register a brand new name on this new site.

Q. When is the site launching?

A. At the end of this month.

Q. What is the website address?

A. It’s coming soon. Hang ten.

Peace
