mp3 player

Hi, I am building an mp3 player project, which uses the VS1003B decoder. I now have the decoder but had tied to buy it already soldered to a dip adaptor board. It didnt come soldered though.

Does anyone know anywhere I can buy this chip or can anyone solder this chip to a dip adaptor board for me. I have never seen this type of chip before with the pins on the bottom, it doesnt even look SMD.

I was wondering if anyone know a replacement that is in dip format already. I have done everything else for this project, and now I am left hanging.

PS I wasnt sure where to put this post, sorry
