Well, I am working on a new project now that NaNoWriMo is done, November was some month.

1. Plan is to play one BY-SA or BY or similar licensed song at midnight on Y98 every day.
2. At the same time, a link to download the song will be published on the Y98 web site.
3. Prefer songs in our genre but close may pass at the start.

The link will also have artist info, links to artist web sites, etc. Whatever I can find to make it more interesting.

Still looking for a possibly better name for the show.

Looking for help finding radio ready songs that fit our plans.

More later, early input apreciated. I am already making lists of what I find on kompoz, jamendo, and ccmixter. Suggestions welcome.

And kompozers, in my search here, not many in the two license categories and the genres I am searching are marked as completed. So, if you have some that are complete but not marked so, now is a good time. If you have some that are nearly complete but have been dragging... 

Y98 is a broadcast radio station in the Bahamas.

all the best,

I thought I would blog this so I can refer to it instead of posting the same info over and over again as I have already needed to give this info out a couple of times here recently.

Free Software versus freeware. They are not the same.

So:

Libre Software versus gratisware. One speaks to freedom, one speaks to zero price.

These are licensed so as to be available for use in you BY-SA music projects. Enjoy. (I might be prevailed upon to do shoots on request down this way as well.

This (as it stands so far) just came to me this morning.

Never Knew About Love

I think I am going to like it...

I have had some nice chats with kompozers in the last few days, both here on site and in #kompoz on irc.freenode.net. Would it be appropriate to register #compoz as an official project on freenode? If now, I guess we should at least switch over to ##kompoz ...

Living on the Rock for most of my life now...

Been here for a few days now and am having a good time so far.

Finding some stuff I want to play with too.

We shall see what develops.

Hello everyone,

drew here. Island boy. Lyrics is my thing (I wish more was, but there you go.) I like to do the free and copyleft thing so BY-SA is my preferred license. I have lots of pre written lyrics over at Packet In's site if anyof you wants to look and see if any fit your pre existing music or if they inspire some.

Look at the files and in the directories under user_drewRoberts

Also, I will try and write new lyrics for your existing tunes if I can.

all the best,

drew
