I am trying to record my mixed for personal use. Keeps telling me the tracks are DRM protected. I am using deezer and idjpool as my music sources. What other music sources could I use if not these to record my tracks?

None of the online rental services allow recording, only owning a copy is the way to record. there are other record pools where you pay a bit more and you actually own what you download. but these are outside vdj

If you're using Deezer and Content Unlimited then they're not your tracks. Those are rental services. That's why the tracks are copy protected. Recording them would be illegal.

Strictly speaking, even if you bought the music, it would be illegal to record it.

A typical copyright notice for music may state:
Unauthorized duplication is a violation of existing laws or Unauthorized public performance, broadcasting and copying of this recording is prohibited - in other words you have the right to listen to the music, and that's it. No recording, broadcasting, copying etc unless you have an appropriate license (i.e. you're authorized).

It's been that way for a great many decades - before you or I even existed.
