Musical Sources

All of the musical samples on this site come from the work of artists working within the new "copy-left" movement, through the Web sites Common Content and Opsound. By making their work available on an "Attribution-ShareAlike" basis, they generously allow samplers like me to "make derivative works" from their audio source, so long as their work is attributed and so long as mine is also made available on a similar basis, which it is. (Click here for the fine print about a Share Alike "deed." And here for the Attribution agreement.)

Because my music often incorporates around 5-10 diverse samples in each piece, I've taken the liberty of making a big list of the sample sources, rather than attributing each song individually.
