I think they were - at one point there was a stems section on Beatport, but that stopped because they wanted it to go through Loopcloud, which I assume lets you use stems in more of a controlled environment. There are a few ‘AI’ services that claim to do all sorts of wonderful things with stems to either let you play around with the track or automatically create unique mixes of tracks for you, based on your mood or whatever. All seem terrible to me.
Seems as though there are ways for people to try and get their own stems - https://djmag.com/longreads/five-ways-separate-acapellas-and-stems-2021 - which seems like a good way for new DJs to commit career suicide.

It seems like you're basically giving away your secret sauce (if you're the producers)
That is why they are so difficult to get hold of!

Daft Punk - I get that - they're their own tracks so they have all the raw material to mix as they choose.
kboy: I've heard of that before but are producers really providing their tracks to DJs split into stems (component parts) like that? It seems like you're basically giving away your secret sauce (if you're the producers)
