The first version of Beatport launched in January 2004 with 79 record labels on board. By mid 2004, Beatport started to gain recognition collaborating with some of the top DJs and technology companies in the business such as Native Instruments in Berlin and world-renowned dance artists, Bad Boy Bill, John Acquaviva and Richie Hawtin.
With the re-vision of the site January 2005, the momentum of Beatport's achievements picked up speed. Beatport 2.0 soon became the recognized global leader in Independent dance music, building a catalog over 100,000 tracks supplied by 2,700 signed labels. Beatport also sponsored major electronic music festivals in 2006 such as Remix Hotel for the Winter Music Conference in Miami, Sonar in Barcelona, Love Parade in Berlin and the Move Festival in Chicago to name a few. Dropping even more names, Beatport continues to flourish relationships with some of the best club venues around the world like Crobar (NYC, Chicago, Miami), Privilege (Ibiza), Vinyl and the Church (Denver).
With the third re-launch, Beatport 3.0 displays significant improvements to the site. Adding to the already impressive list of features, 3.0 includes a more robust search engine, 'My Beatport', 'Users Also Bought' and 'Email a Friend.' Capturing the market further, Beatport joins forces with DeeJay Magazine (UK), designing for the first time an original syndication, strengthening Beatport's capabilities to offer their users the best exclusive electronic music first. Beatport's main office is located in Denver Colorado with satellite offices in New York, London and Berlin.
