Well, the pace continues and it was only a matter of time before our attention returned to ccMixter, the Creative Commons remix site. If you have visited and sampled the goods, then do yourself a favor and check this out. To start I went through the Editor Picks and very quickly found this track, timely, topical and downright excellent.Noisy, raucous, rude and brilliant fun. Those krazy kids Do Kashiteru finds their groove and then dare you to get the hook(s) out of your head. Beneath all the flash bombs is a damn fine piece of arranging that despite gong-ing themselves, shows off a real talent.fourstones
Hell, I forgot how much fun it is to hunt for CC music across the net. I love this one. It is a release by an artist called Roglok on a netlabel called upitup. The release goes by the name Out of disorder.With his second album Roglok releases yet another insane masterpiece. It seems that the kid who designed our website has not only found his own sound (we call it hobby) but also brought it to perfection: gummy acid basslines over punchy dancefloor beats, that ridiculous melody you can't get out of your head, some gabber and techno. His legendary set at Picknick in Berlin turned the place upside down and made the hipsters lose their aloofness. You just have to dance!
Rumbero Elegante is the name of a release that first appeared in May, 2009. Konsumprodukt is a project of of Spanish based Alejandro Remeseiro that consists of quite a few delicious little bites. A little lounge, a little techno and little just say what...I was torn as to what to post, but you should feel free to go to archives.org and check out the entire release. "Rumbero elegante" is obviously influenced by the styles and rhythms of Alejandros home country in the first place, but he adds some wicked twists and turns that clearly show his special view on music.The netlabel Laridae released this one and I can't wait to see what else they've been up to lately.
Jamendo.com is a fantastic source for free music covered by Creative Commons licenses. I need to make some time to get over to this Euro-resource, but BlocSonic has me covered for now. They released a compilation of ten artists that have posted their music at Jamendo this last May.
