Metapop remix competition site is discontinued.

Are there any alternatives to Metapop? With Stems & Samples Download?

Someone have any stem packs from Metapop?
Fuck. I liked to analysing stems or sounds from this site.
I lost hard drive with few packs from this site.
And now I can't download them.
Is it lost forever? :C

I understand that because of AI generated music it goes shitty and they stopped organising competitions.
But why immadiately closing the whole site and deprive you of hundreds of downloads :C

 

remix packs website was first .ru domain, then .club domain. there is this: https://remixpacks.net

it looks sort of similar. It looks legit, but using those FFS hosting with all the BS. So you never know until you try. It could be only music that you have no interest in.

 

Thx! I will check it.

For example I found this site. Content looks very nice. But you need to register and they wanna money for registration.
Is it unfair and it should be free? Or I am weird?

https://acapellas.site/

Content look nice. For example there are many Michael Jackson studio acapellas and stems.
https://acapellas.site/michael-jackson-billie-jean-multitrack-39-tracks-and-24-tracks/

But site is paid

 

Look at all those Michael Jackson Stems.
Dua Lipa, Evanescence, Roger Sanchez, Beastie Boys, Fatboy Slim Stems. This looks sick!
Where to get those for free?

Spoiler

Why not just make your own stems? Download any track, drag and drop into RipX.

I bet that is pretty much what they are doing and charging for it.

 

https://skiomusic.com/contests/overview still does contests

 

Yeah. But AI stems still have some artifacts.
Also stems will be from ready track which have reverb etc. I wanna more dry/raw stems.

On site they claim that those are studio acapellas. AI stems are tagged as AI. But you can have right. Who knows if they are just isn't use AI for all stems and scam people

 

I wouldn't do anything like joining, registering, or paying for that site. I didn't have reason to check it out fully, but as you can tell from my apprehensive post I was skeptical about it. More along the lines of it being like some 90s warez site getting users to click banners and so on, to unlock downloads. Scam sites. From the website appearance, I thought it might be that original remixpacks.ru site but on a new domain. But sites like that, the very first sign of paying for anything at all, it's time to find another site.

 

You can find stems for (re)mixing at cambridge-mt, but there're no contests. For those you could have a look here.

 

I found this one. There are Dua Lipa, Michael Jackson Stems etc.
Looks like everything is free.

https://songstems.net

 

Some of them are the same as on cambridge-mt, only as group stems.

 

I am looking for:
"Loredana - Rain Rain" Stems.

I don't know if it was on the Metapop. But there was remix competition with this somewhere.

There is free Remix album with 55 tracks on Bandcamp.

On the bottom of the page there is some info:
"I decided to invite the greatest lords of sound around the globe to remix Rain Rain in their own, inimitable way,
and together we built this awesome free collection of blissful tunes.

Another 10 remixes came from a remix contest with winners picked by Loredana herself.
Thanks also to the talented Alex Tânjală for his photography, and Silver ‘§‘ Strain for his cover art.

Endless sweet thanks to everyone involved, my precious friends."


Anyone have those stems maybe?
Anyone know more info? Like where the remix contest was?

 

whaaat!? this is so cooool

 

Thx for the info. There is a discord link, it pop out as first result in google when you put phrase: "metapop discord".

Yeah. On Metapop you even didn't need to enter contests. You could download any stems from the whole site.
You could listen to anyone remix and see the song structure because everyone need to make screenshot of the whole daw project. There was many things to inspire or even learn.
But not anymore.
That's why I hate online content. I think everyone hate.
It can disappear anytime.
I just wanted to improve my arranging and song structure and look what people did in songs which I like.
But I am 1 year too late

 

You can also join the Beat Battles discord. It started on Metapop, and has loads of people from there who share stems, etc...

I just downloaded a couple of packs there and upon listening back to individual parts there is obvious bleed from other parts so im guessing they are ripped with eq separation algos. or maybe its just the ones I chose that arent clean original samples

 

It smells like AI stem separation.

 

Meatpop - Is this a new genre?
