The Beatsource DJ Exclusives program has been 20 years in the making. It’s built around an entirely new, never been done licensing model, and means that DJs can access the types of remixes and edits which have previously only been found on record pools, but in a way which ensures both the original rights holders and the DJs themselves get fairly compensated for their work.

In this second episode of our new series, Inside The Edit, Mojaxx talks to Sir Marcus, one half of the Tall Boys production duo, and Remix Director for DJcity, about the way that the pair started working together, and what excites him most about the DJ Exclusives program.
