Happy Birthday!!! Tribalmixes is 10 years old!!!, page 1

slash ProDanceCulture on May 11th, 2015 / post 67377
well, what can i say... may 05 2005 - as first registering the domain, may 11 2005 - as second step of opening the doors for a random visitor... and here we are 10 years later and not leaving!

10 years.. should i reminisce? i don't think so.. i will say that not all of my hopes have come to fruition, not all the plans have been realized, but this is a solid place with great people and respectable staff, we have many experts in various fields of sound and video from producing to recording and ripping streams that noone on the net can tackle. lots of video content has been coming in lately, who would have thought 10 years ago that sharing 15GB packs of 1 night's festival video feed would be a normal thing..

back in early 2005 i've personally had problems with hdd storage and money.. and internet.. my upload speed was varely 80kb/s, compared to 600kb/s today, but i would say generally everyone's speeds have grown 100 times, downloads are lightning fast, there are several dozen seedboxes involved in sharing at any time of the day or night.

people come and go, some stick around for years, others take a mix and disappear for ever, but there's a bunch of guys who i'd like to thank personally for all the work they've done over the years...

Viktor1983 - the quietest guy, never hear of him, but he's the unbeatable command line master and freaking server speed genius. his valuable advise in my programming has also been a tremendous help. i'd happily recount all of the times he dropped all he did and jumped onto tribalmixes issues, always on top of them, the skill... oh well... i don't know what i'd do without him.... THANK YOU, VIKTOR!!

FamilyClub - he's been around when it all started, with a great deal of uploads, then disappeared, and now recent return over a year ago, - omg, he's been as active as the robots that share music without sleep and food, well, Alberto's been even more active, in the year or so he's shared over NINE THOUSAND torrents & releases, soak it in, - 9.000+... it is 20-30 per day.. over 90% of those he records himself off local fm and internet radios. THANK YOU, ALBERTO!!!

Moocowdan - this guy has probably shared as much music as the one above, only he goes heavy-hitting 5-10GB packs of proton, frisky and insomnia, not to mention countless megapacks of most rare sets making complete collections of DJs' lives' work and Shows' existence spanning decades, his upload stats mesmerize newbies, he's been around for 8.5years out of 10, so he's been through it all and his input is unmeasurable. THANK YOU, DANIEL!!!

of course you must understand, i don't wanna bore you with too many names, some of them i've long forgotten, others' input stayed back in 2005-2008, the first 3-4 years when tribalmixes has risen to be one of 10.000 biggest sites in the world, and later due to my lack of knowledge of SEO and the fact that site was so popular, well, couldn't hold positions and didn't even know that there were some positions, thus site lost lots of traffic to direct-download sites since services like megaupload and filesonic have become available... well, no matter, torrents are still strong. and tribalmixes almost officially feeds such sites as mixing_dj, edmtunes, livesets_at, global-sets, and many others. for those who deal with more than 1 set per month - torrents are the way to go, but for general populace living a year with 2 sets from tomorrowland 2012 in their music player, well, those people will use direct download sites, there are no arguments against that.. anyhow, during last year we've been working in that direction too, and to my sheer gladness, some of those 'other' sites are already showing decrease in traffic... well, this is my gloating and boasting and let me have it... really...

returning to my thanks.. i must mention these guys and girls, randomly, as their names hit my brain, without them we'd never be where we are now: mades, munkyn, Tokes, Alee, ElNino, bo12, Gatz, lucabati, Vitesse113, ANTHONY, jozeg, apache, bidona, coqui, gwende, Matevone, spr, MuscleTech, fabric8, She-RA,  HadyTarek, Zahran, karimbo, Lover4o, bocaccio11, leventedj, mihai2211, bonamusic, robprunzit, sunnteck, emata, djrado, DjMigas, BeatBoxBaby, gadhun, tamerfouda, ramballo, wolfgang, littleangel, suzysheer, donut97, digfun, ramballo, mohamedbasha, BBSSPYIN, SpasV, lostwraith, vfr, arnani, FlowerPowder, siabdo, Topo, buzzer, craddock, pippoka, djal33x, srecko234, djafar, IB1, KS, pozi7ive, Biontek, Musabesni, iseeyoursoul, PHM, tercsab, AMDx4D, Mallam, esoteric, madazulu, Insomniafm,  AndyP1981, leon_cooke, Sky3000, ENNISELLIS, 1spaceboss, antarez, isti, shiffer, jerpaa, brytek, koka, bobross, ingost, and countless others, i thank all of you, many times over.

10 years.. to think of it, some of these people have even passed away... 10 years is a long time... buzzer, gwende, and others i don't know of: you're always with us!!

2 weeks ago i have renewed my ownership of tribalmixes.com for the next 9 years. the best times are yet to come.

ps. since noone remembered about this birthday, and since i really don't care about doing anything special, there will be no official celebratory actions taken except this thread...

I was reading my old messages ealier today for no particular reason and noticed this message.

Congrats on tribalmixes.com's birthday i wish you many more - always Gatz

I then checked the date of the message - it was may 5 2006. Incredible coincidence that i am here this week 9 years later reading that message.

Anyway Slash you did an amazing job keeping you dream alive I remember you always told me tribalmixes was your baby.  

Congrats and good luck.

10 BIG YEARS! HAPPY B-DAY TM! AND I MAY SAY, HAPPY B-DAY SLASH! FROM MY POINT OF VIEW, U BOTH ARE INSEPARABLE!I HAVE JOINED TM ABOUT AN YEAR AFTER IT WAS ON LINE (ON JUNE 2006), AND SINCE THEN, THERE WAS NO DAY (FROM HOME, OR FROM ANYWHERE WHERE A CONNECTION WAS AVAILABLE) WITHOUT TM. FOR 9 WHOLE YEARS, TM WAS A PART OF ME, A DAILY ADDICTION. WHY? FOR ITS MUSIC AND FOR ITS PEOPLE...AND MANY OF THEM BECAME MY FRIENDS. Even if we 've never met (BUT WHO KNOWS?...NEVER IT'S TOO LATE). THANK YOU TRIBALMIXES! AND THANK YOU PEOPLE OF TM!

Congrats with the birthday!!!
And a big thank you to you Slash, the staff, all the contributors, uploaders and everyone I forgot.
All your hard work is deerly appreciated, this site is the best.

Slash, thank you for the appreciation, i appreciate the kind words.

I do also bow my head for the renewal of the site and the dedication in time to keep this wonderful site up and running. I will continue to assist where I can.

I do feel grateful for this place you have built to harness the fullest collection of electronic music out there. I remember finding this site when searching Dj Icey, way back in the early days. My passion back then was fat, funky breaks, it is rare these days to get a pure mix along those lines. My electronic music tastes have changed over the years but the one place I always come first to see what is new is tribalmixes.

Humble as you are, hold your head high and be proud of this which came about ten years ago. Here is to another ten more.
