Where to get vocal tracks (1 Viewer)

I can find plenty of karoke tracks to work with, but where can I get some vocal only tracks?

You could record them.

What are you looking to do?

I'd like to try making mixes using entire songs. I'd be adding new music and sounds over the vocal tracks, but I can't locate any. I can't even find info on where to get them.

Ah, "Bootleggin" as it's called in the UK. Big big craze back there at the mo', from the likes of 2 Many DJs & Osymyso. Basically take the vocals from one song, and mix it with an instrumental of one or more other tracks. Thus, you get Destiny's Child over Nirvana for example.

Something like that Brian. They'd just be for my personal enjoyment though.

Not criticising it, Jereme, I'm a fan of the concept. "As Heard on Radio Soulwax" is one of the best CDs around at the moment.
