Where can I host backtracks?

Post by John Booth »

I am in the process of making some MP3 backtracks
that people can play steel to and I want to give them away.

Where can I host/post them so people can download them?

Are the backing tracks stored out there somewhere?

I would love to play along with them if there is a link to get to 'em.

Thanks,

That linked to one song, you need to link to the folder, then we can see all of the songs that are in it.

Hi John, the tracks really sound good. They will all play ok, but only
10 of them will download. The other 7 fail when you try to download.
I had to turn off the antivirus in to be able to download the 10 I got.

Carl,
Thanks for the info. It's odd that they will play but
not download.
Tell me one that won't download and I'll try it and see if it works for me. I plan to make a lot more of these.

They're not great but better than nothing. Enjoy them

John, I’ve only listened to a few, but what I heard sounded really good...Thanks for giving some of us more challenged ones, as far as being able to play with someone or make our own tracks something to play along with.
