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 pirate music and other stuff that's not necessarily pirate music but I think goes well with it. Some of the music this week does have lyrics.
Into Aer Cumri (3:28)
Polka No. 1 for Accordion in C minor (2:15)
Parisian (0:43)
Talijanska (1:56)
Waltz No. 1 for Accordion in C minor (2:39)
Poirot (2:38)
That was Into Aer Cumri by Mattias Westlund, which was formerly available from Jamendo and is now available from The Internet Archive, which is licensed under an Attribution license. After that was Polka No. 1 for Accordion in C minor by Steven O'Brien, which is available from SoundCloud and is licensed under an Attribution license. Then we had Parisian by Kevin MacLeod, which is available from incompetech.com and is licensed under an Attribution license. Next up was Talijanska by Balkan Balagan, which is available from Jamendo and is licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial Share-Alike license. After that was Waltz No. 1 for Accordion in C minor by Steven O'Brien, which is available from SoundCloud and is licensed under an Attribution license. And finishing up was Poirot by Michael Lambright, which is available from Jamendo and is licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial license.
MusOpen's back on KickStarter again with a new project to record more classical music to release as public domain. Most of the classical music out there is public domain due to how old it is, but that's the music itself. Recordings of said classical music are generally newer and are covered by copyright, preventing them from being reused without explicit licensing. Musopen's goal is to change that. Their previous KickStarter campaign successfully allowed them to record a bunch of well-known music which they released to The Internet Archive as public domain. Now their goal is to record the complete works of Chopin, and as of the time of this episode they have almost reached their goal already. To take a look and help out, please visit http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/Musopen/set-chopin-free
Volant (7:25)
Gypsy Csardas and Men's Dances from Kalotaszeg (edited) (6:14)
Miri's Magic Dance (1:36)
Amari Szi (4:37)
That was Volant by La Troba Kung-Fu and an edited version of Gypsy Csardas and Men's Dances from Kalotaszeg by MetroFolk, both of which are available from Free Music Archive and are licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial Share-Alike license. After that was Miri's Magic Dance by Kevin MacLeod, which is available from incompetech.com and is licensed under an Attribution license. Then we had Amari Szi by The Underscore Orkestra, which is available from Free Music Archive and is licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial Share-Alike license.
Today's app-of-the-day is Synergy. Synergy is a neat little system to let you use one keyboard and mouse to run multiple computers. So, for example, in my normal computer setup I have my desktop running Xubuntu Linux with its two monitors set up with the keyboard and mouse, and I have Synergy set up on my Gentoo Linux laptop so the cursor and keyboard smoothly move right over to it without having to plug in or unplug anything. Basically when my mouse hits the edge of the desktop's screen, it pops over onto the laptop's. And the great thing is that the computers involved don't have to run the same operating system. They have downloads for Linux, Mac OS X, Microsoft Windows, and iOS for iPad and iPhone devices, though I have little doubt there's a port available for BSD, OpenIndiana, etc. It's available from synergy-foss.org and is very simple to set up.
Now for a short noncommercial break from one of our nonsponsors, followed by more music.
Treasure Island
French Blues (2:55)
Sailor's Saturday Night B-dur (3:38)
The Battle of Gavelburg (4:18)
Black Flag Flying (edited) (3:47)
That was French Blues by The Joy Drops, which is available from SoundCloud and is licensed under an Attribution license. After that was Sailor's Saturday Night B-dur by HEINZ ALMSTEDT, which is available from Jamendo and is licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial Share-Alike license. Then we had The Battle of Gavelburg by Mattias Westlund, formerly available from Jamendo and now available from The Internet Archive, which is licensed under an Attribution license. And finishing up was a slightly edited version of Black Flag Flying by davidrovics, which is available from SoundCloud and is licensed under an Attribution license.
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.

Episode 45: Electronic
Just a quick note, because I've had a few people request this. This is not a full list, but here are a few of the places I commonly get music from:
- Ralph
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 electronic music.
Luceds - Going Steampunk (3:20)
Adibudi - Special sounds for special girl (Final version) (3:04)
Edge (2:52)
Melodia F (1:20)
That was Luceds - Going Steampunk by Luceds, which was available from SoundCloud. After that was Adibudi - Special sounds for special girl (Final version) by Adibudi, which is available from Jamendo. Then we had Edge by Mystery Mammal and finishing up was Melodia F by BrunoXe, which are both available from SoundCloud. All four of the songs in this set are licensed under an Attribution license.
There seems to be a lot of confusion about which license to choose when publishing something that you want to open license. Now, right upfront, I'm going to say that I'm not an attorney and this is not to be construed as legal advice. However, wonder no more, because there are a number of good guides out there. If your work is of a creative nature, the Creative Commons licenses are very popular and easy to choose from. Just visit http://creativecommons.org/choose/ to get started. They'll let you choose the terms and conditions under which you want to license your work. And that popularity thing I mentioned earlier? That's one of the big advantages of Creative Commons licenses. Not all licenses can legally have their stuff combined together. Many licenses explicitly state which other licenses they can be combined with. Well, because the Creative Commons licenses are so easy to use and so popular, there's a whole ecosystem of compatible-licensed stuff that, by licensing your work under a Creative Commons license, other people can combine your work with to build more cool stuff.
That said, the Creative Commons licenses are generally not recommended for computer programs, with the exception of the CC0 license which is just plain awesome anyway, because there are other licenses which are generally better-suited to licensing code. For a generally easy-to-read guide to available source code licenses, check out the Free Software Foundation's license guide at https://gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html which has a very large list of licenses, the terms they cover, how they can be combined, etc. Personally I'm a big fan of CC0 and the zlib license, but there are a whole bunch of other very good licenses on there for different purposes.
Anyway, it's about time I quit yakking and get back to music.
Copycat (Sunrise Mix) (ft. Fredrik Wasberger, Shannon Hurley) (5:29)
Breathless (ft. Jen Someone) (4:05)
Nightmare Night Showdown (5:51)
Electronic Engineering (3:15)
That was Copycat (Sunrise Mix) (ft. Fredrik Wasberger, Shannon Hurley) and Breathless (ft. Jen Someone), both by Ic3m4n, available from ccMixter, and licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial license. After that was Nightmare Night Showdown by Sonikkureinbumu, which is available from SoundCloud and is licensed under an Attribution Noncommercial license. Finishing up was Electronic Engineering by Katharine Priegues, which is available from SoundCloud and is licensed under an Attribution 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 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
