Beastie Boys A Cappellas

We've launched a new section on the site offering Beastie Boys A Cappellas for you to download and use for your own personal remixes (along with tempo information for most tracks).

We'll be updating it each week for the next little while with a new one for you to download. Check it out.

Nice! Looks good too

Is this part of that vault thing you have been working on or is this completely unrelated?

Nah, this is just a little something we pulled together to try and help out the people on here who wanted more a cappellas for their remixes.

thanks a lot mate, shit's hot! brr stick 'em aswell...

i wish there was a root down acapella with the swearing intact though, although the 'curse words' are present in RRNN and the like.

All in all though this is real good, cheers admins, i look forward to some more in the future

Man, this is like one of the coolest things a band could do for their fans...so much appreciated.

Problem: I'm rockin' an imac and its only downloading them in a quicktime movie format, rather than an mp3 format...and where it says format my only option is quicktime...any help would be cool...

Peace.

Perhaps once the files are downloaded you could rename the file extension to .mp3? Does that work?

Thank you Beasties/BeastieBoys.com for sharing the a cappellas. I hope there will be many more great a cappellas to come i.e non singles.

I've had that problem before. If you have some other media player you can click file, "open from URL" and copy and paste the link in the space. It should open it in the media player. You can save it from here as an MP3. It worked for me.

Ok, I don't think that's not possible for the file extension to change. Here's what's happening: Quicktime is your default MP3 player so they are actually MP3's. Am I right?

sweeet, i love a cappellas

thanks in advance

Right click on the word Download and then select Download Linked File, this saves them as mp3 files instead of playing them using quicktime.

one more day till fresh acapella!!!!

Any chance for the lyrics from Get It Together being released? By far my favorite Beastie Boys song.

A new pella is released each Friday and then they stay up 24 / 7 365 yo!

thanks for opening up your 'pella collection to us remix artists...great people you are.....

any plans to re-release some olde school 'pellas (paul revere, brass monkey, time to get ill)? Those pella releases would definately bring those songs back to the forefront if the remix artists get their hands on them....

Please advise...

Thanks!

Like I said, I can't really say much, other than: we'll see.

48 Hours 'til new 1 is added! Since I guess it'll be from TT5B for now, I'm surprised no one's requested That's It That's All

That's correct. We don't offer any uploading facilities here. You have to upload elsewhere and then link to it.

[muphasta]

so it is legally OK then?!!?

The only thing we're giving clearance to use are the a cappella tracks we're offering. Anything you use in your remix beyond the a cappellas we provide is used at your own risk.

That said, you may link to your uploaded remixes here though, of course.

[muphasta]

very very very nice

many many many thanks

cheers

[Rodie]

I think we should finish up the TT5B acapellas before we move on.

Today's a cappella (Friday 16th of September) will be posted a little later in the day than we usually post them.
