anyone know where i can download some music for a karaoke machine. My mom has one and asked if i knew where to get music for it. I guess you need the kind of music that has only the backing tracks, and will display the words on a screen. You guys know where I can get this type of stuff?

what you are looking for are called cd+g. The g = graphics. You can try and look for them on kazaa by searching for the word karaoke or cd+g or you can use an alternate program that alot of users here use which is called soulseek. You might see if there is an actual room there for karaoke. I havent looked for one, but my guess there should be, because there seems to be a room on there for everything else. If you dont have the application yet, go here to download the newest beta release:

I have a few tracks on my PC named 'Instrumental'. All there except vocals.

Instrumental is just that, only instruments minus the vocals, no vocals included. I am guessing someone just created that to simulate karaoke. But from my experience all karaoke will have not only the graphics embedded in the disc, but also background vocals for the chorus and some harmony. I have also known karaoke to have lead vocals present, but at a very low volume. Karaoke discs are not produced at all by the original artist, they are just renditions of the song.. mainly produced in Korea, China or Japan.


I would still consider trying to find some on the filesharing programs... because I know there are people who do share them somewhere.

The thing you have to consider is... if people are sharing them on a filesharing app., will they share with you if you have none to share? I cant answer that... but you can always seek it out and try. Good luck.
