Some Great sources for Acapellas

DJing, like any other kind of art, needs very subtle understanding of the multitudes of elements which render form to its current state. To get into the nuances of DJing, you need to do scrupulous practices, all the while putting your soul into it and enjoying it. If you don’t enjoy your music thoroughly, the audience will never enjoy it and the very purpose of your mixing would be beaten. Sometimes it happens that the sound of your mix sounds really low and dry if instrumentals are used repeatedly. This is the best time when you can try the cool acapellas to pep up the mood and surprise your audience. Acapella is typically a vocal - only track of any normal instrumental song that can throw in some life in dull monotonous sets.  Being a DJ, there is no better feeling than mixing various blazing vocals into a single banging song and create an instant remix. Here is a list of some best sources to help you in finding acapellas of your choice.

DJ Compilations - Great source for Acapellas

Acapellas4u

This website has been there for over 7 years now and boasts of an extensive free list of acapellas. It is growing everyday in size, thanks to its large user base which uploads the vocals and earns credit on the basis of downloads. But there are two major backdrops to this website. One is that you can’t download more that 30 audios a month and the price for paid acapellas is just too high.

Beatport, DJtunes, Traxsource

These are some other very popular websites which can act as a pool of cool acapellas for your mix but are paid and the price for each acapella can be as high as the original song.  DJtunes and Traxsource are relatively smaller websites with handful of resources but have enough vocals to satiate your desire for finding beautiful acapellas and new vocals.

Try making your own version of Acapella

Well of course, you don’t need to go through all this hustle of selecting suitable website and then buying the piece of acapella version of the song you desire. Instead, you might very well want to try your hands on extracting the vocals from a track yourself. You will need similar quality of normal version and instrumental version of the song you want to convert. The vocals can be extracted by a simple technique called inversion in a DAW. After you do this, all that is left to do is extracting the audio and there you go. Your acapella version of the song is ready to be played and mixed.

Another great source for acapella version remixes is DJ Compilations.
