Where to find acapellas for bootlegs.

[DJ Dilemma]

Does anybody know any good sites for acapellas of all genres?

I hear so many songs on the radio that I think would make a wicked foundation for a remix but dont know any good sites to get them from. I understand that legit acapellas are sometimes hard to come by unless the labels officially release them, but I know people make their own and they dont turn out too shabby.

try indaba for remix competitions and access to official stems

ps it is only a bootleg if you obtain the material illegally and then release it

thanks for the recommendation.

A bootleg is an unofficial remix.

actually not: the term bootleg comes from an older tradition of illegally recording or otherwise obtaining a recording of a performance, which was in turn borrowed from the concept of bootleg booze during the Prohibition era

the modern meaning of "unofficial remix" is flawed in so far as that, in most cases, nothing illegal was done to obtain the material, only the release of the material is potentially illegal
