We're very happy and excited to present on FMA the pre-selection for "La Boite A Sons" composition contest !

Read down to learn more about this project, and run the herafter player to listen to the contributions :




THE STORY :

Summer 2009 : LibreCommeLair (LCL), a french online music label, opens a free creative commons sound bank filled by the artists who collaborated or released on the label.

To spread the new, the label decides to organize a remix contest based on the sound bank.

January 2011 : The contest entries are now closed, we were initialy supposed to make a pre-selection of the tracks we received, but we just couldn't because of the variety and quality of tracks : dub, reggae, electroacustic, d'n'b, house, electronica... So we let the Jury decide !

Speaking about it, a jury composed of Netaudio and Creative Commons music actors will make a final selection that will be released as a compilation on LibreCommeLair.
The Jury will be : FreeMusicArchive, Notheen, Subflow, DivergenceFM, INQ, Netwaves, Netaudio Berlin, AQuietBump, iD.EOLOGY and Dogmazic.

Here are all the tracks in competition for your listening (and downloading) pleasure, if you want to learn more about the artists, you will find bios and links on this soundcloud page : http://soundcloud.com/la-boite-a-sons

If you are looking for free sound loops and samples, help yourself and browse our soundbank : http://www.lclweb.org/free_soundbank.htm

LCL - december 2010

" My feeling , inspiration and reason is the people of my country, exactly from Chiapas Mexico (EZLN), because they are warriors in a material ,fascist and globalized society, so I am telling in my songs about my experience and what I saw in my life. The music is like a instrument to make a connection with the people in the world, and try to leave a message for the next generations... "
