Acapellas - good sources

Post by stevemac » Mon Jan 17, 2011 8:49 pm

Hi everyone, I've been extracting vocal parts from various tunes - almost always from CDs or MP3s.

Previously I have done a bit of searching the web for acapellas without too much joy to be honest. Are there any good sources people are willing to share for acapellas?

To be honest, I'm fairly sure there is no specific pot of gold site/resource out there but thought it might be asking for some advice.

Also, on a complete tangent, does anyone here like Zane Lowe? A lot of people I know REALLY hate him. I really don't, love his enthusiasm and obvious knowledge/appreciation for music.

peace and tea

Generally the rubbish ones will say DIY next to them, so you know to ignore them if your looking for perfect ones, but studio acapellas can be found on there quite easily.

you could try some none commercial acapellas if your having trouble finding commercial stuff

looperman.com - amateur acapellas, no commercial songs but some alright stuff if you need vocals to slice or whatever and you wont get in any copyright trouble if you do make it big! :corndance:

ccmixter.org - similar to the above

for commercial stuff theres the aforementioned acapellas4u

a google search and theres more accapella forums and sites too but you need to register with them usually

musicradar.com have a free female vocal pack - pretty grotty but you can twist some of the samples to make some okish stuff

once when i was really desperate i actually downloaded a commercial acapella off youtube using a youtube to mp3 site. wouldnt recommend this unless you want horrible sound quality!

as for zane lowe i watched gonzo back in the day on mtv2 he was bearable on that :D
