About
A search engine for crate diggers
CrateRadar started as a personal tool. Hardstyle and hardcore live across a handful of stores — Beatport, Bandcamp, Hardtunes, plus smaller label-run shops — and a single track can be on three of them at three different prices and formats. Finding the right version for a set used to mean opening half a dozen tabs and pasting the same query into each.
So we built the search box we wanted: type once, see every store that carries the track, with prices side by side. No store inventory of our own, no streaming rights we don’t have — just an index that points you at the cheapest copy in the format you actually need.
What we do
- Crawl public store catalogs daily, normalize across the inevitable inconsistencies (track names, mix versions, ISRC, BPM, key)
- Surface every store carrying a given canonical track, sorted by price, with format and extended-mix availability
- Track price drops and free-download windows for users who want alerts
- Parse setlists / tracklists into shoppable lists (Pro)
What we don’t do
- Host or stream audio. Previews come from the source store.
- Take payment for the music itself. Click-throughs go directly to the store; we may earn an affiliate commission on some stores (see affiliate disclosure )
- Have any official relationship with the stores we index, unless explicitly announced
Coverage
Currently indexing Beatport, Bandcamp, Hardtunes, and Black Reaper Records. We add stores as we build out scrapers — Toolbox Records, Hardstyle.com, and a couple of label shops are on the roadmap.
