Your best bet would be to look for the acapellas

Try with CoolEdit 2.0 or Soundforge

Try to filter the Vocals out of the song, it might not work. but if ur lucky it will.

CoolEdit or Soundforge can be found at ur local MusicStore...

Dj_unsorted, I saw that in another thread you were asking how BeatFreak got the vocals out of Marco V - Godd. I was curious myself, so I checked out the remix further, and upon close inspection and comparison to the original version, noticed that...he didn't!

You see, in the original version, there's a big breakdown in the middle and at about 2:30 you have just the vocal and a heavily low-pass filtered kick and bass. This vocal section also has a noise hit at the beginning and a heavily flanged swell near the end. Both the noise hit and the flanged swell are in the vocal parts of BeatFreak's remix, so you can put 2 and 2 together and conclude that he didn't do anything to isolate the vocals other than perhaps hard-EQing out the kick and bass.

Best bet - a file-sharing app and look up Acapella (including any possible misspellings). You'd be amazed what you can find; I found BT Remember - just the vocals, with barely a hint of reverb.

On the album version of Marco V's GODD, there are only the vocals (with nothing on the background) in the beginning of the tune...

Hint hint

do a search here about the subject (actually i don't remember if it is here or on the max graham message board) someone posted a great link about acapella's. if you can't find the acapella, you better EQ the hell out of it and then still use something in the background of your mix to cover up any traces.
