Hi all I am currently compiling a Acapella CD / DJ tools CD to use with house music. Currently the Track list reads...

Put your hands up in the air (Trevor and Simon)
Put your hands up for detroit
Technology (Daft Punk also used by Buster Rhyms)
harder faster Stronger better (Daft Punk)
monday night to the club tuesday night to the club... (sp*nk)
It's like that (Run DMX) DJ tool not acapella
Sweet dreams (Bad quality acapella)
Sexy back (Bad quality)
PUsh it (Salt n Peper, Very short)

Adding Woomp there it is (Tag Team) and Shiny Disco Balls once I can find them about.

My question is are there any more acapellas that I've missed out. I'm thinking commercialy know tracks people would know. Not to underground. I think the track list above gives you an idea of what i'm after.

In advance thanks fo your help.
Peter James

mrjynx · Arh baby, ACAS4U's gotta hold on me.

Why dont you just have a look through the acapella list & compile a list that way? Thats wot its there for...
You cant go through your entire career asking people wot to play...

Also I do hope your not intending to make money out of this, without paying the people whose work your using...

mrjynx I don't think you quite gut the idea of what i'm trying to do. I just wanted peoples opinons and recomendations. I'm not trying to "get through my career asking people what to play" or make money from other peoples hard work. I don't know what it is about my post that made you think I was. You'v jumped to allot of conclusions. Chill out I belived this was a site for discusing music with a focus on acapellas and you've baiscally had a go at me for doing just that. It was supossed to be a fun helpful topic for discusion nothing more.

DJ Michele I just put the list down quickley in lay mans terms. I'll ashume people know what ther talking about i future sorry

mrjynx · Arh baby, ACAS4U's gotta hold on me.

Well I could show you a detailed working out of my thought process, but that would be far too nerdy, and would probably end up leading to an argument so I shant..

I have no problem with your post. I was mearly suggesting you have a look through the acapella database for inspiration... if you found my tone agressive..(tho I have no control over your percetion of me).. I shall take your thoughts into consideration...

& we actually ended up agreeing on 3 things, this is a great forum, stealing music is wrong & people shouldnt try get through their careers asking others wot to play...

(see its all in the perception)...

So if thats everything covered, then I think thats me done...

ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE, la la la la la...

Awwwwwwww, have you 2 kissed and made up already? Smilie_PDT

godeboy, don't worry to much how things come across, we are used to more of the bad variety here (1 posters etc..) rather than the good you have proved to be to date.

jynx, I still love you, don't take our break up to hard. Smilie_PDT

godeboy, yeah be sure to check out the acapella list particularly the vocal one-shots...
Heres a few Dance/House not on your list that u might like...

Mylo - Drop the Pressure
Paffendorf - Where Are You
TV Rock - Flaunt It
Technotronic - Pump Up The Jam
Klubbheads - Samples

BognorBootleggers · ACAS4U Referral Ambassador

Indeep - Last Night A DJ Saved My Life
Madonna - Music
Beastie Boys - Ch Check It Out ???
(maybe other beasties too like body movin')

I know its not that well known yet but works well with lots of things:

Princess Superstar - Perfect

and also

666 - Rhythm Takes Control

Can work well

Theres good samples out there to like the old ''you are now about to witness the strength of street life'' and ''i know your gonna dig this'' cant remember where there from but there on lots of dj tools things. Also Norman Cook released a DJ Tools thing once that had a nice copy of ''This is jam hot'' as in the sample he used for beats international (and its not in the acapella or at least not without drums if i remember correctly) maybe that could be an acapella to use too.

EDIT:

You could also try

Missy Elliot - Get Your Freak On

Really happy with the sugestions so far, infact I'm quite exited as I got a fantastic reaction from what I've compiled myself.

For the record I've added...
-Groove is in the heart, B52s
-Wheres your head at, bassment jaxx
-Shiny disco balls
-Tag team, woomp there it is
and a AIR HORN SFX (yeah baby it's all about the air horn ha ha)

Keep the ideas flowing plus learn how to use a Pioneer mixer! Been processing the acapellas with the onboard effects and it really adds something major to the mix. The crowd love it Smilie_PDT

p.s. anisina I think me and mrjynx have made up. yes, yes.

adam86 · ACAS4U Rookie now off the mark

thats a good idea, i just searched the list for any current top songs and made a cd full of acapellas

godeboy · Special Member

Adam whats on your list? If you've got to many what do you think the highlights are?

roslinishere · ACAS4U Rookie now off the mark

Someone's missing some apostrophes and extra 'O's...LOL

Sorry, I couldn't resist. I do want to add something that might sound odd but for some reason it might work: Supretramp - "Dreamer"
