Publicly-available stems and instrumentals

It's not too often, but every once in a while music artists may choose to release the official stems or instrumentals of their songs. I think these are really cool to explore, so I thought I'd compile a list of instances where artists I like have done this.

There's also a list on Wikipedia, though it doesn't tend to include direct download links.

• 100 gecs
  • 1000 gecs: stems
  • 1000 gecs and the Tree of Clues: stems
• 10000 gecs: stems

You will need:

• FontForge
• BitsNPicas (which requires Java)

Steps

1. Open your TTF (or whatever) in FontForge.
