ughhhh im sad just posting this-

my boss wants acapella's for remixing in ughhh GarageBand...with no understanding of DJ/remix culture he doesnt get that DJ;s spend their time crate digging to find gold...anyway....

could you guys suggest, lend a hand or point me in the direction of easy to grab mp3s or even 12"s that have acapella's of pop tunes? maybe you are reading this and have some yourself that youd love to share? id prefer stuff thats relatively easy to grab and not hav to register and upload and the like...

just need some help to get him off my case for the day.....

thanks much

have you tried

www.acapellas4U.co.uk

they have quite a few 'pellas on there - not sure if its exactly what you are after but its a starting point.

There various tools which claim to be able to strip vocals from tracks, the few which I have experience of didnt do a great job though.

cheers
Stal

The iTunes music store has several acapellas to download. Just search for "acapella" and look for songs with (acapella) after the title. Jay-Z's entire black album acapellas are on the iTMS.
