Profile:

DJ USE ONLY Promotional label, not to be confused with Hot Tracks (3) (Sony Music France)
Hot Tracks is a DJ-only subscription/remix service originating in San Francisco, CA (USA) in 1982, later moving operations to Tulsa, OK (USA), and to Denver, CO (USA) after being acquired by Select Mix. Current operations are based in Las Vegas, NV (USA).
Releases are pressed in limited quantities and feature mixes of Top 40, Hi-NRG, House, Urban, Disco and Euro tracks. Issues were originally released on single 12" but soon appeared on double 12" and later triple 12" vinyl sets. The first "Best Of" CD's were released in 1988, and monthly CD's began in 1991 and replaced the vinyl sets completely in 2000.
Through the years Hot Tracks expanded their remix service into "Satellite Services" that provided remixes for specific dance styles with each style having their own series title: Hot Rocks: 80's Rock/New Wave, Love Tracks: Romantic Disco, Hot Classics: Retro/Disco, Street Tracks: Rap/Urban, NRG for the 90's (later NRG): Hi-NRG/Euro, The Edge: Retro Alternative/80's New Wave, and Roadkill (later XL): Techno/Underground/Alternative Dance.
Hot Tracks slowed production in 2005 and the company was bought by another remix service, Select Mix, in 2006. For the first few years, the company was titled "Select Mix - Hot Tracks" but later became just Select Mix. Over the years, Select Mix produced new Hot Tracks and Street Tracks titles, but has since retired both series. Most notably, Select Mix began producing new releases in The Edge series, which focusses mainly on '80s New Wave and Rock music. The entire company went digital in summer 2013, no longer releasing albums on physical media. New productions continue to this day.
