Instant Track Previews! No More Waiting!
The Doing The Damage wave player just got a serious upgrade!
If you’ve ever clicked play on a track and waited for the preview to load… you’ll notice something very different from today.
Track previews now load & play almost instantly!
That means less waiting, more listening, and a much faster way to find the perfect tracks for your next set.
We’ve Rebuilt Our Wave Player From The Ground Up
Over the last few weeks we’ve been working behind the scenes on one of the biggest technical upgrades we’ve ever made to Doing The Damage.
Rather than simply making a few tweaks, we decided to overhaul the entire preview system.
The result?
- ⚡ Instant track previews
- ⚡ Faster waveform loading
- ⚡ Much smoother playback
- ⚡ A better experience across desktop, tablet and mobile
If you’re browsing dozens of edits looking for your next dancefloor weapon, those small improvements make a huge difference.
Every Track Now Has Its Own Waveform
One of the biggest changes is something you’ll probably never notice…
…because it’s working behind the scenes.
We’ve generated waveform data for our entire back catalogue of exclusive Edits.
Instead of creating waveform information when you click Play, it’s already there waiting.
That means the player can display the waveform and begin playback far more quickly than before.
Whether you’re checking out a brand-new release or digging through years of exclusive edits, the experience is now consistently fast.
Faster Servers = Faster Music
The player wasn’t the only thing we upgraded.
We’ve also invested in faster infrastructure behind the scenes.
Our upgraded data servers deliver preview files much more efficiently, helping tracks begin playing almost immediately after you hit the Play button.
Combined with the new waveform system, the whole browsing experience feels significantly more responsive.
Why This Matters
As DJs, we don’t browse music the same way everyone else does.
When you’re preparing for a gig you might preview:
- 20 tracks…
- 50 tracks…
- Sometimes over 100 tracks in one session.
Waiting even a few seconds every time soon adds up.
Now you can move through the catalogue much faster, hear more music in less time, and build better playlists without breaking your workflow.
The Fastest Way To Discover New Music
Doing The Damage has always been built around helping DJs find exclusive edits quickly.
With over 10,000 exclusive DJ edits, remixes and mashups, making discovery as fast as possible is incredibly important.
This latest update means you can spend less time waiting for previews…
…and more time finding tracks that will fill dance floors.
