Free Music Archive ♥

This Monday, we began a guest curation series at our Free Music Archive portal. Rather than attempt to distill the vast landscape of CC-licensed music on our own, we thought it better to reach out to those on the ground working to support and expose these type of artists in their given communities. What better way to start then with a selection of tracks from ccMixter admin/developer/mentor Victor Stone:

For all the activism in the Open Music movement, nothing pushes the ball forward like brilliant, evocative music. While there is plenty of underground music of all sub-genres at ccMixter, there is also a growing collection of mainstream, above-ground producers who understand the value of sharing as a means of boosting their own creativity along with their exposure.

I'm so glad to be a supporter of WFMU. Keep it up, WFMU!!

I found another girl
And she's cuter and younger than you ever were
And she could kick your ass if you fuck with her
And she's good in bed
And she calls me "Sir"

For the first time in history, honey has been made on White House grounds. It's a bumper crop.
