Whaddup everyone!
I have some cool inside scoop for a brand new music download site. The site is called hitmultitracks.com and it will be available april 1st. What it is, its a site where you can download the raw tracks from current artist such as 50 cent, etc. What does this mean? It means you can get the hit song in its raw form, all seperated tracks so remixing can be more flexible. check out the site for more info. www.hitmultitracks.com

Haha its going to be very cool..in fact I would like to see what ppl think of this idea since one of its main target audience is DJs. I only ask cuz my friend is one of the partners. So What do y'all think?

If it is quality (ie, no 192kbps crap) and legit (backed by endorsements from labels) then I think it is a fantastic idea.

Alright. I admit, I got hooked for about 30 seconds and I thought that something like this might be a possibilty. But then I came to my senses and posted that it will never happen.
Now I feel like you guys are poking fun at me, as in "Of course it's a joke anewsome, did you really take it seriously". Well if it's meant to be a joke sorry that I took it serious.
Thing is, when you post that here, you will actually hook some people, like it hooked me for 30 seconds. Then I realized what a joke it was.
So guys, if you are reading this thread and wondering if it might be for real, don't feel bad. I got hooked too for a moment. Then I realized this would never EVER happen legally. No way, no how. A handful of tracks from indie artists or big name artists on thier own labels, but NEVER EVER on a large scale in any way.
THIS WILL NEVER HAPPEN!

Does digiwaxx offer access to the individual premixed tracks to songs? Can you download the vocal track, drum track, keyboard tracks, etc for individual songs? Raw tracks? Are you kidding me? Instrumentals and acappellas maybe, I don't see any raw tracks there. Nor do I expect you ever will. Not on a large scale at least. And yes, I've seen the one off raw tracks from a handful of artists who want their fans doing remixes and making their own bootlegg materials.

7:33 PM - 10 March, 2006
I dont know what you mean with "premixed tracks". You can download instr+clean, often a dirty version and sometimes an accapella version.
nik39
7:34 PM - 10 March, 2006
Hm, okay, now I understand your point. You took the word "raw" tracks literally. I dont know if he meant it the way you understand it. It doesnt seem to me that way.
Cashless
7:37 PM - 10 March, 2006
I gotta kinda agree with anewsome. Raw tracks? Only one artist that I know of has ever even attempted to release such a thing, but later decided against it.
lil pete
8:19 PM - 10 March, 2006
That's all. Thanks.
HAHAHAHA I agree...
It will never happen... most of the labels don't have individual parts for the songs. The artists have them, unless the studio leaks them out... Also the label would never give them out. If they did... the labels would never sell a cd single with a remix on it... Cause you would find 80,000,000 bootleg remixes by DJ Ham and DJ Egg on the internet.

premix = individual parts of the composition, prior to being mixed down. maybe i should have said pre-mix. either way nik you're right. premixed was a bad choice of wording. premix usually means mixed already, which is what we normally get.

I would like to make it clear that this is not an April Fools joke! The fact that it will be launched on April fools is a coincidence. Whether this idea will succeed I don't know, depends on how many people will go for it. All I wanted to do was make it aware to everyone that a site like this will exist very soon. As for the cost I'm not sure we will have to find out.
Bottom line It's not a Joke!
As for the legal part of it, apparently all that legal mumbo jumbo has been taken care of.

I'll be eating my words more than any one if this ever came to fruition but I am as close to certain as a person can be that it will never happen. Record labels would be horrified that unauthorized bootlegs of tracks would quickly sprout up on p2p networks, etc. This would abviously erode their profits and we know they can't have that. I just don't see it happening. When I think about all the tracks *featuring* other artists, as in artist A appears on artists B's single courtesy of label C? are u kidding me? Label A is gonna allow their artist's raw tracks to be downloaded from a website? I just don't see it. Prove me wrong, please.

In theory they could do the site but I doubt it will be fully legit. No label would give a blanket release for all their products. This may be getting a nod of the head from the promotions side of things but I would love to see the clearance papers from the licensing department. It would be just like a record pool but on a larger scale.

You should think of the potential. SEPERATE TRACKS for the DJ's to remix and mix with.

Oh, I'll agree that it is a dream come true,.. or rather that it would be a dream come true,.. if it were to ever really happen. Which I don't think it will.
I suppose after all the crap-talking I've been doing here about how impossible this thing is,.. I probably won't be able to get a membership :-) Do I look worried?

Mike Furry, DJ Kai and Steven Crooks are all certain this thing will happen. I can't help but laugh every time I go into this thread. I wish I knew these guys so I could personally tell them "I told you so" when this shit never gets off the ground. Giving them an "I told you so" over the Internet is oh-so not satisfying.
On the other hand if they do somehow manage to get this thing off the ground, I'll be glad to let them know where I am spinning so they can come tell me "I Told You So".

Does anyone know if they are hawking this scam on any other DJ forums? How are the guys on the other forums taking it. Are they getting hooked and believing in this thing or are they a bunch of "no freaking way" skeptics like me.
I mean, it *might* be a little more believable if the guys that are saying it's coming were actual participants here in the forum instead of quick hitters, who only post in this thread to try and gather some support for their service which will never get off the ground.

I'm betting that the site does have the multi-track versions of songs, but with a catch... The songs are all going to be from artists that you have never heard before so of course they want you to remix their shiznit since no big name producer will do it!
If an artist on their site blows up and goes big time, I bet their stuff will get pulled off the shelf so if you got their multi-tracks early, then you'll be in luck...but I don't think I'm going to be investing in this. I wish you guys the best of luck though and I hope I'm wrong but I honestly don't see how you could release the multi-track versions of popular songs.

Let me guess...Russia? Yes, it does matter where the company is from.
The basic idea is not all that far-fetched, seeing as there's been 12-inch/CD-single releases with isolated song-parts for many years and more recently a number of online remix contests. I recently saw a CD-single (Kirstine W?) that not only had isolated remix parts but software to mix them with.

Well the registrant on the domain is:
Visual Planet Music Inc.
426 Sumach Street
Toronto, ON M4X1V5
So it looks like they are Canadian, or at least the domain registrant is. The admin, Keith Price, also seems to be located in Canada. The server that the site is running on however, seems to be in US, with a US contact as the administrator. Which means they better damn well be legal if this thing is hosted in US or they well get the RIAA up their asses faster than they can say "turn it off!!"
Sites like allofmp3.com are located off shore and in countries that do not recognize american copyright laws, so those are a lot harder to shutdown. Who knows though, the actual host of the download tracks could be located offshore.
Or actually, I can't believe I am putting this much thought into it at all. This shit will never happen. Period. Sorry, I got hooked again.
I guess the multitrack guys glossed over my post that people would probably take them more seriously if they actually participated in the forum, other than simply trying to drive hits to their non-existent service.
I looked at the site and it doesn't have any more information than it did before. A new look and some fluff really. Nothing substantial at all though.
And yes I checked my PMs. I emailed Kai and never got a response.

Ok we can put this to rest quickly. DJ Kai, Mike Furry, bootleg, Steven Crooks and the rest of you scam artists. Your news page says on 3/23/06 - Yamaha Music (seriously?) joined up for some cross promotion. Can anyone point me to their cross promotion materials, or do those drop on 4/1 also?
Ok even better, I have some friends that write for some magazines. PM me the contact name of your guy at Yamaha and I'll have one of my writers contact the Yamaha guy and interview him about this. Who is going to pass up free advertising and brand promotion right?
Also, the news page says on 12/1/05 you changed the name of the site, but the registrar says otherwise:
"Record created on 11-Feb-2006"

Well since created and last updated date are the same AND it expires exactly one year later, I'm gonna go ahead and say it was registered on 02/11/06. What are the chances they happened to modify a previously registered domain name EXACTLY one year before it expires to the day? Not likely.
Speaking of which, I see they plan to be around a long time if they registered the domain for 1 year only. Suckers!

its called "astroturfing":
en.wikipedia.org
when a company participates in a public forum, offering praise and pretending to be a regular user. many companies have been busted doing the crap and companies ALWAYS lose credibility when this shit happens.
it's one thing to come on ssl forums and pimp your shit but to come on and pimp your shit while pretending to be a regular person is not cool. it's called astroturfing (a fake grass roots movement), and it's not a compliment.
only a few more days until i can tell you all "i told you so". keep bumping your gums and bumping this thread so it'll be fresh in page 1 of the forum come april 1st.

He even tried to do it in one of his games and one of his own websites. Another World famous artists was gonna have access to his multitracks at his theme park (no not Mikey)in Europe and you could take home your remix of his stuff as long as he got to keep a copy.
It's not far fetched. We are all just so paranoid with the RIAAa doing crap that we tend to call bull with the slightest wiff of a fart.

To clear the air.
imultitracks.com is a combined Jamaican/USA/Canada intitiative.
To be frank, although the idea for imultitracks.com came initially from trying to service the DJ market with stem mixes for an upcoming release distributed through CED/Bayside Sony-Red being released worldwide in July 06, the site and new products as we build our catalogue are actually not defined for just the DJ and VJ markets.
The concept and methodology are a lot bigger than that. imultitracks.com is a new way for established and very good up-and-coming artists to present their music.
Using digital protocols and delivery methods we are setting out to shake the foundation of the current label and music industry product structures, and expanding music to its purest interactive form. imultitracks.com's mission statement is to change the way people listen to, create, play and interact with music by making music in its rawest state available to mold, mix, edit and produce as well having it available in its mastered form.
Athough we appreciate the attention, we have purposely withheld any official notice of business operations or press releases until May 06 with a soft launch on April 1,2006. This will give us time to work out the bugs before making it available for mass public knowledge. Your forum as well as other forums had been leaked what we are doing before it was suppose to be made for public knowledge.
We wish you all well in your gigs and hope for much success to come your way.

So they've got two songs up, apparently...a dumbed-down remake of Third World "Now That We've Found Love" and the other track sounds like a guy trying way too hard to be Alanis Morisette (one of Alanis was enough, thank you).
$35-40 US (depending whether you download or get the tracks on a DVD) seems like at least three times what these things should be selling for. I don't think "extortionate" is too strong a term to describe the pricing.

extortionate - greatly exceeding bounds of reason or moderation; "exorbitant rent"; "extortionate prices"; "spends an outrageous amount on entertainment"; "usorious interest rate"; "unconscionable spending"

My original 12-inch singles (three different versions of it) of Vicious Pink "C-C-Can't You See", from 1984, has a bunch of isolated samples and production elements as seperate tracks.
In 1990, The Shamen's "Pro-Gen (Move Any Mountain)" was released as a three-record promo 12" with isolated tracks/samples and as I recall there was somesort of remix contest associated with it.
Yes, this general idea is definitely nothing new...the only "new" thing is the level of extortion that's being attempted. $35-40 is outrageous for what's being offered.

Garage Band:
www.apple.com
It's included with "iLife" for like $79. Not a high end program but defintely worth the $79 alone.
I looked on Apple's site. They don't have the hip-hop garageband pack on their website. I also just did a search on Amazon and they have all the other Jam Packs but not the hip-hop one. Weird.
I was gonna list the tracks but I searched on Google and I couldn't find it there either. The disk is at home, I'm at work now. The only song I know for sure that is on there is "50 Cent - In The Club". I played around with it for like 5 minutes in GarageBand but I've been busy with gigs. Haven't had a chance to touch it.
If I remember correctly it had like 8 tracks maybe. So obviously, not *every* track was distributed seperately. The kick and snare were mixed down on one track for example, but that beat is so wide open, you could easily sample the track and build your own kit in your sampler, MPC or whatever. I think the track layout was something like:
- Percusion
- Guitar Riff
- Swoosh Sound
- Guitar Click
- Orchestra Hits
Something like that. The sounds were layed out nice and pretty discrete though and the tracks are pre-arranged as Dre and 50 laid them out. But you could re-arrange the whole track in about 45 seconds with drag and drop.
I don't remember any other tracks. I can post them when I get home if anyone cares.
Also, these are not cheesy tracks either. They are full blown production quality, digital tracks. In my few minutes of messing with them, I thought they were of very high quality. They are in aiff format but you can export each track to wav and use them in any program that you want I suppose.

The multitrack site is a joke. Imagine starting a car dealership with no cars, or a flying school with no planes? We need more original stuff. Perhaps a whole bunch of SSL owners can work on something original and make some $$$$ in the process. Any one interested in doing something original? I am sure that between the amount of DJ's here, we have rappers(MC's), musicians etc....
Most will have ADSL(cable) so working on stuff shouldn't be hard. A world wide DJ colaboration.
Peace

This is very cool guy's. You are alll working yourself up for the wronge reasons. I know this sounds too good to be real,but it is. We had just sent out a feeler to get an idea of what those in the the business would think. your responses are well above our market sample expectations. this is a business like any onther we needed to build the site to aquire interest,and discussions. We are in negotiations as I write this email with several dif' labels producers and artist @ the major level.
Indiemultitracks will be coming soon as well.
The music business has to change. It cannot sustain itself in this new tech era. with no changes to the orginal business model that has existed since the first record deal was made. the record industry will be always playing catch up,or shutting down new marketing models such as nabster because they (the major labels) are too slow to change.
are we insane... maybe... are we pulling a scam most def' not, but why take my word for it.
maybe everyone should come back to the imultitracks site in another two months. i'm sure we will still be in play.
cheers.
Peace in the east

In other words, all your earlier posts were bullshit?
Yeah, that's a good way to build a potential customer base.

So we went from HITmultitracks to INDIEmultitracks and you claim that the former was just a "feeler"? This is rediculous. I see through this bullshit clearer than the air between me and the computer screen. You tried to get your big label multi-tracks and they denied you and in the end, all you did was promise something you couldn't deliver, so now you're going to do indie artist multi-tracks for artists desperate enough for the fame to let you do it......what a bunch of crap.

The garageband music packs are just music. No vocal tracks. Would be sweet if they did though.

BOOTLEG! lemme ask you a question. Do you think anyone will be impressed with multi-tracks of 20 year old songs or songs that never even were popular to begin with? Maybe from an academic standpoint but most of the DJs I know would get excited about multi-tracks only in terms of popular music (or at least *good* music) that they can chop up and remix and what not.
I'm sure someone gets excited about indie tracks from unknown bands but I doubt those people are lurking on this forum, especially when they are getting dinged for $40 bucks a track for these raw unknown masterpieces.

You gotta admit they picked the right market, there's pure idiots who shell out for CDJ's without even knowing how to get the box open...everyone I know thinks they are some sort of quincy jones or armand van helden...so it's a pretty clever bit of targeting.
The main problem for these scammers was that this board happens to have a slightly higher average IQ going on than yer average DJ thicko-fest, so the incredibly amateur approach taken was exposed within 5 seconds.
I hope they do carry on for a bit, it's hilariously shit.
Actually I think I'm gonna download that 6th-rate unsigned reggaeshite wackapella they have on their site and fling it over laffy taffy with no regard for sync - knowing the current pop charts i'll prolly go triple plat

bumping purely because the Aug 06 Sound on Sound magazine in the UK (not known for bullshit) has a Roger Nichols sidepanel called 'Multitrack iTunes?' which says:
"Major record labels are gearing up for download of your favourite multitrack material. The record labels are actually releasing these multitracks to copyright the content. A copyright is not valid in the US unless the material isdistributed publicly. The multitracks in the vaults are, therefore, not copyright material."
Interesting!

That isn't true, earwolf, the original 1909 US copyright law required publication in order to obtain a copyright. That was ammended in 1976...

and if the multitracks wernt covered wouldnt they be safer "un-copywritten" sitting in the vault then "copywritten" floating around on myspace?

who knows? i'm just saying that after all the hype, an article is published that seems to indicate there may be substantiation to all the crazy crap that mikefury was trying to sell to us - he would have done better by referencing these facts, if they are indeed true...

not being a jerk, but it was rhetorical
on one hand I would have to travel to and physically break into whatever locked facility, and in some cases dump it from 2inch tape. and on the other hand it would just show up in my house digitally with an assumed warning not to copy it. (haha)
It is completely obvious that if the uncopywriten multi track is never taken out of the vault in the first place, that it is exceedingly safer from digital pirates. yes it could happen (and on a side note I did happen into a session where the reels from Roy Ayers Ubiquity were being dumped to Protols, lots of unreleased, unheard cool recordings, and I did consider knocking out the engineer with a reel and running off with as many I could carry)
so only the dumbest of the dumb asses would digitize it and send it to a company that will to distribute it digitally in order to protect it
make more cash off it? that is a completely different story
