23-02-08 / 15:10 : 20th composing anniversary (cjed) | Since 2008 start I've been composing from 20 years, as I started with upright piano in late 1987, and used a little later a Yamaha PSS270, 2 operators FM and stereo (see Songs section, year 1988). I haven't got any recordings from this instrument but a year later I remixed some songs with the PSS680 (a few dozens of songs recorded on tapes, that have been digitalized and remastered after the site creation).
A very thank to people that allowed me to discover music making and synths. However only songs made since my first samples library buy (Symphonic Orchestra Gold, first in summer 2005) are provided (that is one hundred, from about 650 songs total), as they correspond to my new approach, started with the site creation : free music, and rights protection (creative commons nc&nd licence that doesn't allow commercial use nor derived work, and legal SNAC deposit).
I haven't had any problems since (no rights infringments), and non commercial uses most of the times leaded to kind asked permissions that I always accepted. I even received recently in reward a DVD from a small local production company that used 3 songs. Numerous kind messages through mails, or comments at musique-libre.org are the most important. Some people would even buy me new instruments to improve the result (see a recent comment at musique-libre) ! :-)
Some communities like Jamendo provide a donation system (not required however to listen to songs) but the files are available in master (CD) quality. I consider that full quality musics (and polished work) shouldn't be released for free, there should be a cost (variable, depending on the use, personnal listening or use in a non commercial project). Therefore I only provide songs in MP3 quality (great 192kbits encoding however), and they aren't all completed (more were the ten first years, but I had more time). The song Emotional (1996, see at musique-libre.org, last page) is ranked 43th over 20 000 songs total in the global ranking. Good listening ! | | Comments | bravo et bon anniversaire! Je ne trouve pas que tu manques particulièrement d'instruments ;) (submitted at 02-24-08, 09:50 by ) | Hehe merci Vincent ! Oui tu as raison, j'ai un peu de tout dans chaque catéogorie. Reste les guitares, mais ça sonne jamais vraiment réaliste avec des samples. Après reste plus qu'à espérer que les anciens instruments tombent pas en panne. A quand une carte d'émulation VC D20 pour VSynth ? :-) C'est tellement complexe que celle qui émule le D-50 utilise tout le processeur du V-Synth (les autres fonctions sont inacessibles, il faut rebooter sans la carte pour repasser en mode V-Synth).
