If I had to place my hope on something, it'd be the staff reconsidering their decision and not closing the tracker. :rolleyes:

It's a real shame to see it disappear, as it was a great resource for electronic music - personally one of my favorites. Does anyone know why they're shutting down, exactly?

Elektronik is/was a nice place

yes. for obvious reasons :shifty:

Yeah, I read that, but it looks like I've missed what is obvious to other ELK members. :unsure:

It was some kinda low on leeching activity, some unecpected downtimes in a row... These are the only 2 reasons I can think.
I just hope for Elk staff member to come here and just clarify the shit.

ohhh... :cry:

I really wonder what the obvious reasons were?.

EDIT-

Maybe.

probably trouble paying the bills? if i remember correctly, they didn't take donations...not sure how things are now :unsure:

sad news :(

More and more trackers have begun to disappear... Not good.

Edit: I automatically knew that this was going to be about their closure. Just look at the thread's title. ;)

No one knows yet.Let´s hope something, good can come out of this.

My favourite and only site with a decent choice on EDM goes down. :(
Donations weren't the problem, something else was.

What?!? I don`t believe this ...

P.S. The site is down for me :(

It hasn't been taken down yet, but as the announcement says all tracker-related functions are disabled. You can't even check your own profile.

I'm betting ultimately it'll just be a flurry of trading/requesting for the 'next best thing'

Sad to see another site going down though. Gonna be interesting reading all the conspiracy theories... just hope the truth comes out at some point.

So, that was it :(

Now I have no music trackers for any type of music what-so ever.

I think it is my fate to download music from a youtube music ripper.....

Ever heard of Warez-BB and music blogs? :unsure:

rapidshare to download music is crazy :wacko:

I do use warez-bb for all albums I'm very interested in, but single tracks I find myself ripping from youtube or downloading from frostwire..

I use that site all the time, when I don't have limewire/frostwire.

Just turn it down real low when your listening, and imagine it's a flac file.

Warez-BB has FLAC. :yes:

If you get any premium accounts, make sure they're from RapidShare and HotFile.

Elektronik didn't have significant FLAC afaik..

elektROnik was one of my favorite trackers.They never asked users to donate.

Their Unique Packs was like the best thing about elek.

They also had the Amateur section to let users upload their own mixes/tracks. That was very nice, in my opinion.

Rip elektronik; another big lose in torrent community :(

Come to BCG and do it then in our member creation category.

I like electronic/trance/dance music as well and it's sad to see this tracker go. I'm sure it was a great community.

elektonik closed..

Another one... Damn! :cry:

Fuck!
What do I do for music now?

Demonoid also works wonders for finding music files, at least enough to satisfy my paltry needs. And since the download is relatively small and completed quickly, many of the users that would have otherwise left after leeching the torrent remain on it for a quite a while, so the speeds are pretty decent.

And if you're looking to use WBB more frequently, you could always try uploading some stuff from your 0day trackers to RS and posting it on WBB, it wouldn't be long before you got a premium account for free.

And there's always Soulseek.
