Episode 12: Western

Hi, and welcome to the Open Licensed Music Podcast, the show where we highlight music from artists who let you share their music.  I'm Ralph Wacksworth, and today's episode is featuring music with a bit of a western feel.

Longing for Tumbleweeds (ft. snowflake) (1:54)
Bearded_Gypsy_Band_-_Viochord (3:15)
La rupture (3:23)
Bama Country (3:33)

That was Longing for Tumbleweeds (ft. snowflake) by Admiral Bob, which is available from ccMixter and is licensed under an Attribution license.  After that was Bearded_Gypsy_Band_-_Viochord by Kiah, which is available from Jamendo and is licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial Share-Alike license.  Then we had La rupture by Löhstana David, which is available from Jamendo and is licensed under an Attribution license.  Finishing up was Bama Country by Kevin MacLeod, which is available from incompetech.com and is licensed under an Attribution license.

Just a quick reminder: The Humble Music Bundle is still available for the next few days.  They've also added some extra bonus content, and just like last week I can heartily recommend the music.  You choose how much you want to pay and who you want to pay it to.  Cool concept, good music.  Check it out today at humblebundle.com

And now, back to music.

Thing For Itself (ft. Pitx) (2:23)
Armadillo (3:14)
The Oregon Trail (instrumental remix) (2:58)
Ghost From the Past (6:51)

That was Thing For Itself (ft. Pitx) by unreal_dm, which is available from ccMixter and is licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial license.  After that was Armadillo by Yubatake, which is available from OpenGameArt.org and is licensed under an Attribution license.  Then we had an instrumental remix of The Oregon Trail by Kara Square, which is made of components from ccMixter and is licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial license.  And finishing up was Ghost From the Past by Butterfly Tea, which is available from Jamendo and is licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial Share-Alike license.

Let's continue right on with some more music.

Quand je serai grand (3:11)
dead (2:49)
Hiccup Western (2:06)
Eastern Blues (2:57)

That was Quand je serai grand by Löhstana David, which is available from Jamendo and is licensed under an Attribution license.  After that was dead by maxemaze and Hiccup Western by Carlier, which are both available from SoundCloud and are licensed under an Attribution license.  Finishing up was Eastern Blues by Sombrero(s), which is available from Jamendo and is licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial Share-Alike license.

Today's app-of-the-day is PuTTY, a cross-platform terminal, telnet, and SSH client.  It gives you the ability to open terminal windows to many different types of command-line terminal servers, encrypted and not, network and serial.  If you've been in IT for very much time, you've probably used this program at one point in time or another, and if you haven't yet, you probably will.  What surprised me is that it's also available for platforms other than Microsoft Windows now.  I'm used to using command-line ssh from Linux, but apparently now PuTTY is now available for Linux, BSD, Symbian, Classic Mac OS, Mac OS X, Microsoft Windows, and Windows Mobile.  It's available for download at www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty

Now for a short noncommercial break from one of our nonsponsors followed by more music.

Petite chanson grivoise (0:54)
Cattails (2:39)

Dans un petit verre d'eau (3:25)

So, that's all for today.  Remember - piracy of commercial music only proves your dependence on that model and justifies further censorship and restriction.  So don't pirate it - replace it with something better.  Listen to open licensed music, donate to the artists behind it, go to concerts, and buy music from artists whose record labels don't see you as their enemies.  Support artists where your support actually counts.
