I was just thinking we have about 14000 members but I seems to be only a handful of us post remixes/mash ups etc. Where do our files go or get used for?
Alot of new members use the intro thread saying how great this site is (which it is). But never really use the site to promote themselves.
Is collecting accapellas etc a new fad like a new form of stamp collecting?
LOL Griers
Thats a good question.I can honestly say that there is a crapload of stuff that I haven't downloaded,but what I have downloaded I either use for practice/educational purposes or to promotski myself.
One thing I do not do is leak anything I find here anywhere.What I get from LR is all mine mine mine!!!! To play with or hold onto for a rainy day.Its not so much about collecting for me,more having a good arsenal of material to hand should I ever need inspiration or direction.
That gives you some insight in to one user at least!
.....oh yea one other thing I have done with our files is smash them to bits courtesy of one of samsungs life wrecking hard drives
:@
(I still have the pieces though.....!)
I take all the 70's 80's and 90's stuff and make extended tracks using the beats and what not. Also I rearrange.
Keep the song true to the original.
Like so

I use files from LR for a number of reasons. Mashups, extended edits, live mixing, etc. although I don't really download that much coz I concentrate on the DJing part of my job and not producing. Everyone to their own though, you don't have to be 100% into production to be a member here.
I use the stuff I download for my mashups. Like here: http://www.youtube.com/smadaleinad
I just like listening to different parts of the song, making my own edits, etc
