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

New release online ! [LCLCB02] Vinilette : Bliss (progressive electronica/techno)

This EP is our second "Carte Blanche", a serie that aims to focus on artists far from our usual musical line in order to share sonic discoveries.

So be warned : THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH DUB ;)

For this opus, we present Vinilette, a spanish female electronic music producer and DJ we met at the Netaudio Berlin festival in october 2009. We had the idea of this spontaneous release talking with her, and serve it to you fresh as sushi (we discover the result with you!).

Be ready for some subtle progresive electronica & techno with a slice of house !

[LCLCB02] Vinilette : Bliss
1. Where I go (Original)
2. Where I go (Shelby Grey remix)
3. Where I go (Sendo remix)
4. Where I go (Oscarfly remix)
5. Esplendor (Original)
6. Esplendor (Sonia Keating remix)
