Beatport, an online store focused on electronic music and DJ culture, has teamed up with Twitch to launch its own channel to support the DJ community.
The move comes over two months after Amazon-owned Twitch, known for livestreaming video games and esports, introduced its new DJ Category, allowing DJs to legally play music in their livestreams on the platform. As part of that launch, Twitch partnered with all three music majors, Universal Music Group, Warner Music Group, and Sony Music, and a large number of independent labels via Merlin.
Beatport’s Twitch channel will feature exclusive live sets from DJs in iconic locations worldwide, including rooftop performances in Barcelona, beach festivals in Ibiza, and intimate sessions from the Beatport London headquarters.
