	I remember the Shamen once released a cd with elements of one of their hits on in WAV format so you could remix their track to your hearts content. Have any other artists done this? And is there a site where you can download these kind of released track elements legally (or cough illegally)

	viper2, have you tried Googling, using the following keywords ? +Shamen + WAV Try it with other likely artists. I worked on a Japanese programme many years ago where we went to a studio and specially recorded riffs and other elements with the Brand New Heavies. They were placed on a web site and viewers were asked to re-mix a new arrangement and add an original element of their own. The winner won loads of home studio gear. I thought it was a great idea for a competition. Those recordings might still be on-line somewhere. If I remember correctly the programme was commisioned by Fuji and was called 'Revolution 8' … but any text will probably be in Japanese. Note to anybody who doesn't know about searching - The plus signs ensure that only a page with Shamen and WAV will be found. If you also found that a lot of results were for something like a bloke called Kevin Shamen, you could add an excluding function by adding - Kevin. The minus sign will eliminate those matches.

	viper2, This has been done many times now. The first I came across was Moby on his "Feeling So Real" single which had tracks to remix "Everytime You Touch Me" for a competition. Currently Jesus Jones have the individual tracks available for their Culture Vulture single and are posting the submitted remixes on their website here “Richard, Roger, Rodney, Rastus, Raoul, Roderick, Randy, Rupert”
