This blog mainly shares music that I have been directly involved in creating over the last 4 decades.

Most of the works posted here will be under a creative commons license. Feel free to distribute them FOR FREE (re-post on your blog, embed the IA player, upload to a different server, or whatever). I would, of course, appreciate a link back here.

If you are interested in a commercial use/re-issue of any of the works presented here, leave me a note in the comments and we will work something out.

From time to time I'll also drop suggestions for other DIY musicians I run across that I think you'd enjoy.
