Full Dj XS Acapella Packs Vol.1 & 2 available now over on Bandcamp - https://fvuk.bandcamp.com/

It's the final time tomorrow that Bandcamp will be waivering fees in support of artists following the lockdown and I've been trying to think of something different to offer up as a 24 hour sale having uploaded a batch of unreleased edits over the last couple of rotations.

One thing I had difficulty with when starting out was working with acapellas and getting everything lined up and in sync as they can be tricky to work with at times. I've also noticed a few producers here on Souncloud having the same problems with some dodgy mash ups being released and the vocal clearly out of whack.

Now I have actually developed a process over the years whereby I quantize and sync up all my acapellas in Ableton adding a drumloop intro and outro so it's easily recognisable mapping wise in both DAWs and Dj gear.

I have a fair few batches of these now so I thought it would be useful to create a couple of packs and offer them up as a final 24 hour sale on Bandcamp for those who could do with a hand in the acapella department.

2 packs in total. A fair bit of work has gone into tracking these down, warping, syncing etc in Ableton plus a little eq and compression just to boost levels.

I think there are some options out there for house type stuff but I don't think there's anything available for hip hop so hopefully something useful.

48 Acapellas in Total - A collection of some oy my favourites, all with drum loop intros and outros as well as tagged with BPM and Key.

Sample acapella above just so you can get the general idea. Full list below. These will only be available as packs though hopefully a nice mix of eras, styles, and BPMs on each.

Some real gems in here so perfect for those who want to up the workflow and add some serious funk to their dj'ing/production.


Enjoy
