Sledgehammer Instrumental/A Capella version?

Zkbvjxq · 10-01-2015, 06:00 PM

I've been trying to create a mashup with Peter Gabriel's Sledgehammer for wuite some time but I've been unable to find an instrumental or A capella version of the song online. The ones I did find were remade karaoke versions and do not sound like the actual song.

While we're on topic, is there a website that has retro instrumental/a capella songs?

Thanks for all the help

Unless the file is divided into only vocal and the rest of it channels (rare but it happens) there's not much to extract from the file. I suggest trying some vocal-muting software. I used to play with this kind of things long time ago. There was a program Goldwave which had this filter to mute vocals. I remember that it worked surprisingly good sometimes, it depends on what the vocal is like. Some songs could be nearly flawlessly extracted with this software, but some totally don't. If you really need it you should try.
