Looking for vox for EDM music ;) 2012-09-21 18:16:22 Reply

Yoooo! I'm EDM Producer, Redshift! I've got a few songs that could really use a vocalist! It's a free song, so I won't be paying out. Lol, I'm used to people paying ME to sing on my instrumentals. But, I want to call these songs mine, so I extend the offer to you guys!
I do like to play with my LFO's, meaning there are some dubstep elements, along with dubstep songs. I also do house, dnb, electro, moombah, etc. I'm not a one trick pony :)

you can hear my music @ either:

soundcloud.com/redshift-us
-or-
thedilking.newgrounds.com

I dont post much to newgrounds, so my soundcloud is probably your best bet.

Post here or hit me up via PM!

I have no idea who you are, and I don't have the proper context to know why that is, but asking people to pay to voice your tracks seems like a really dickish move.

Again, just IMO, perhaps there's something I'm missing. Good luck with your search.

I think you guys are misinterpreting what I'm saying lol. When people pay me to use a song, I lease it to them and they distribute it under their name. I don't charge a dime for any of my personal music (Redshift) I'm scraping a living in this world too haha.

lol that one is pretty old. a few years, give or take. And there's a delay error i couldnt fix w/o Ableton crashing. :\ It's sad. Other than that I was pretty proud of it. But no, this would definitely be a free song.
1, i was completely inexperienced
2, it's EDM. I only sell hip hop beats and poppy scene kid electronic music.

Man you handled our ridicule like a freaking boss :D Good luck finding a vocalist, I haven't seen very many of them around this particular forum though.

Hahahaha thanks man :) After I reread what I had said I can understand why people took it they way they did :P It was my bad!
Hopefully I can find something! If not I'm going to have to get a mic and start doing it myself haha. There's so many talented people on this site I'd love to work with!

(awesome music btw! I was checking out your soundcloud)

I wish I had a place to record. I love to sing I just don't have the location. *sigh*
It's so frustrating. Good luck though.

I found singers for my album on SoundCloud by the way, you should ask around on there too.

Where do you go on soundcloud? :o I've looked for forums before with no luck.

Actually... People came to me. Haha
I put "Looking for vocalists to collaborate with" in my profile information, right at the top in block capitals and over the course of 3-6 months I got about 4 requests. Now, about a year later I have a nearly finished album with vocals from 2 of those guys, plus a third I found on Facebook, and we're all good friends too. ^^

I think you have to have something to show to get people interested in the first place. For example, I write music in all kinds of genres that are worlds apart (retro electronica, soundtrack/classical, rock - metal - symphonic power metal) so it appeals to a wide range of people. On top of that you need to show you're friendly. Comment on lots of people's tracks, offer advice, be genuine and you'll find people to work with. There are lots of singers on SoundCloud.

*brainwave* Maybe you should check out Zefora: http://soundcloud.com/zefora
She offers lots of vocals that are free to use. Not sure what the terms are but you may find something you can use. Have fun!

Yeah, SoundCloud has a very limited forum functionality in groups. Not great for discussions and finding people really.
Good luck!

You might try looperman.com
They have a lot of CC (like newgrounds) & Royalty free works you could use. Even a specific section on acapella (vox, as you call it).


Find me on: Facebook, Twitter, or Soundcloud.
