Help needed: list of music software used on Jamendo

sylvinus — Wed, 06 Feb 2008 07:01:47 +0100

Hi!

We'll soon allow artists to tell which software they used to make/record/mix/... their music.

We've begun a list here :
http://www.jamendo.com/en/get2/name/tag/plain?type=software&n=all&order=alpha_asc

Please tell us if you use a software that's not in the list, and we'll add it! (wikipedia entry mandatory)

thanks!

Creative Commons Media for Videographers (aka "May I use that album for a video at Youtube?")

===== START =====

I am personally a big proponent behind the idea of the Creative Commons movement, which tries to create a free-er multimedia society where listeners, users and remixers build upon original works and freely exchange that information. The Creative Commons culture features the most free music (13,000+ high quality albums), it's easy to find, and they usually have the right license for the job (ported to the legal systems of most countries). In other words, it's your best bet to find a music piece that will fit your video without potential legal consequences.But first, you must get familiar the 4 major Creative Commons clauses. Please note, the following is not legal advice as I am not a lawyer, but rather my own understanding of all things CC after having researched it for my own projects the last few years.

1. CC-ND (Creative Commons non-derivative)
When this "ND" clause is used, you can not use it on your video, because syncing audio and video is prohibited. This clause is the most restrictive of all, and it happens to govern a lot of the CC albums. It basically just allows for free personal viewing/listening and nothing else (unless you get permission from the copyright holder).

2. CC-NC (Creative Commons non-commercial)
Be very careful about this clause. Even if you are not charging money for your video, if you upload that video on a site that has advertisement in it (even if that's your own site that happens to have some ads, or YouTube, or Vimeo), then that’s commercial use and it's prohibited. However, if you only use it for your own web site that has no ads, or you burned DVDs, including burning for your friends and family, then it's fine.

3. CC-SA (Creative Commons share-alike) (and ArtLibre)
This clause allows usage of the composition as long as your video is licensed under the same license. This is not a bad deal, but it also means that if you have a great shot that Steven Spielberg wants to use as stock footage, he can't, because his movies won't be licensed under the same license (he will have to get written authorization directly from you to get around the "SA" clause). So this is a "viral" license: anything that uses music licensed as such, will have to use the same "SA" license from then on. Same goes for the popular French "ArtLibre" license (aka "Free Art License"). It might be what you need, or it might be not.

4. CC-BY (Creative Commons attribution)
Lastly, there is the "Attribution" clause. This is the most liberal for all the CC licenses, as it only asks to give credit to the artist, in the credit roll of your video. That's it, there are no other restrictions (apart from using the work for unethical purposes, but what constitutes as "unethical" is open to a public court's interpretation). That's what I personally use for my projects (check the credit rolls on my HD videos). Only problem with this is, from all the CC music available, only about 330+ albums are licensed only under the "BY" clause, so selection is limited. Although it should be enough. I found good music for my videos even at a time when only 45 such albums existed.

Here's a recent video of mine that uses CC-BY 3.0 music (most of my videos are also licensed under this very nonrestrictive license too), with the appropriate attribution in the credit roll:
http://vimeo.com/2265645

Of course, most of the time there are combinations of these clauses (e.g. CC-BY-NC-ND, CC-BY-SA, CC-NC-SA etc etc), so pay attention when you download a piece of music. There are also some other types of clauses (e.g. CC with no clauses at all, Sampling+, etc), but very few compositions are licensed under these, so I won't be explaining them here.

Now, there are two major Creative Commons sources. ccMixter, and Jamendo.

- If you actually download from ccMixter, be very careful to not use compositions that remix upon commercial songs. For example, a potential ccMixter remix of Linkin Park's "Numb" song will be a violation of Linkin Park's copyright if you use it on your own video, even if the actual remix is licensed under a CC license. In other words: choose original compositions, and choose wisely! If you don't know if a composition is original and not RIAA-ridden, avoid. ccMixter personnel told me that they are very careful about such issues and so bumping into remixed music of... RIAA origins is not likely to happen.

- Jamendo's CC-BY-only URL is this. However, Jamendo doesn't let you search per license, so if you start searching or use the tags on their site, you will end up with search results that include all kinds of CC licenses. So be 100% sure, that the music you end up downloading and using has the right license. The license is written on the right side of each album page -- for example, the CC-BY clause is represented with a "little human" icon. If more icons are next to it, it means that the album is governed with more CC clauses, so you need to be careful. If you want to browse all major CC clauses on Jamendo instead of just CC-BY, here's the URL for it.

- If you really need to use a piece of music that it uses a more restrictive Creative Commons clause, you need to write to the author of the music and ask for permission. If this is a commercial project you are creating, you will need to actually get him to sign a contract.

- If your movie uses a free-er license than the music it is using (e.g. you license your movie under the CC-BY, but you use CC-NC-ND music under a signed contract), then you need to make this super-clear in the license of your movie. In some countries, you might need to use a less-free license for your movie, just because the music it contains is less free.

- Always make clear the license of your video on both the web page it appears and in its credit roll. If you don't show that the video is governed by a license, then by default, according to the US law, it will automatically be copyrighted and restricted (a'la MPAA/RIAA). Don't handcuff your creations. License them under a free license, like a Creative Commons one. Even if you pick the most restrictive CC license, do say so that you do. Allow others to build upon your work, this is how societies and culture evolve.

- The Creative Commons license just defines the kind of use that you authorize for your work. You still remain its author and keep all the rights. Regardless, if you pick CC-BY music or you specifically license other types of CC music, you can still license your video work under any other license.

- When you pick music that includes the CC "BY" clause in it, you need to give attribution to the musician. This is how you do this properly, in your credit roll (in the web page that has the video, you can just mention that your video and/or the music is licensed under a particular CC clause without any additional info, but in the credit roll you need to give full credit):

Artist: [Name of the artist]
Track Name: [Name of the music track used]
Album Name: [Name of the music album track appears in]
URL: [Jamendo or other URL where others can download the music]

This music track is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 license:
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
[you always include the URL of the license. Use the name and URL of the actual CC license the music is licensed under, in this example I just used the CC-BY]

[If your video is governed by the same license as the music track, just use this instead:]
Music and video are licensed separately under the Creative Commons "BY" 3.0 license
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0
[...otherwise, just name the video license and include a URL for it, separately to the music's]

Video Copyright 2008 [your name here]
[you don't say just "copyright", because this can cause problems with the music copyright legally-speaking]

Feel free to reword the above, but remember, all that info must be in the credit roll. You can find some ideas on how to "compact" all that info on my own Vimeo videos.

Finally, now that you have read all the above, please view this 19 minute video below, which is a talk of the Stanford university professor and co-founder of the Creative Commons movement, Larry Lessig. The talk is educating, entertaining, it explains the idea behind Creative Commons very well, and why it is important for our future generations for such-licensed work to exist. This is the talk that made me license all of my videos under one of the most liberal CC licenses, the CC-BY.

Experimental, Minimalist, Spoken Word Radio Show needs music

FallingRoom — Sun, 03 Jan 2010 20:35:52 +0100

Hello all
I am a volunteer at a Canadian Public Radio station in St. Catharines, Ontario (Canada) called CFBU – 103.7 FM. You can visit the CFBU website at cfbu.ca and read more about the station,
I host and produce a 1 hour radio program titled “The Falling Room”. The program features experimental, minimalist and avant garde (spoken word, poetry, new age) music from independent artists. I do not play any form of commercial music at all (no rap, country, rock, classical, etc).
“The Falling Room” broadcasts live on Fridays at 8:00PM (North America, Eastern Standard Time) and is recorded and re-broadcast on Tuesdays at 12:00AM. Unfortunately, the shows are not yet available for podcast, though I have sent copies of certain shows to various artists on many occasions.
You can visit the radio stations website, at cfbu.ca and click under “program schedule” at the very top of the web page, to view when “The Falling Room” is scheduled to be broadcast as well as an email address to contact myself.
Those who choose to hear the show live through the cfbu.ca website can access the “listen online” link at the top of cfbu web page. Depending on where you live, you will have to figure out what 8:00PM or 12:00AM is in your time zone.
As the host of “The Falling Room” I have been on air since April 2009. The main focus of “The Falling Room” is to feature independent artists who produce experimental, minimalist, ambient, spoken word and avant garde music that falls completely outside the mainstream of commercial music and radio. Since April 2009 I have featured over 70 independent acoustic artists.
I have also played more well known artists such as Brian Eno, Pat Methany, Steve Reich, Terry Riley, Tangerine Dream, Laurie Anderson, Jean Michel Jarre, The Golden Palominos and Michael Oldfield.
If you would like me to review your music for broadcast, please email me at halder@look.ca I am new to Jamendo and have already found some incredible artists here. I am especially interested in seeking Canadian artists, although if your music fits the format, I will certainly review it.
I have a web page at Soundclick, which you can access as well, (don’t leave messages there though) http://members.soundclick.com/halder252
Thank you
Joe (aka Halder)

Songs from Jamendo in podcast?

blacktattoo — Sat, 02 Jan 2010 18:10:10 +0100

Hello good people,
I'm relatively new to podcast world and I was wondering if I could use music from jamendo.com for my new podcast project that I'm about to start? I need to mention that my podcast is non-commercial. The Podcast is about promoting fresh artists and good music, of course, there will be discussions about other music and music non-related topics like movies, everyday life, criticism etc... So long story short, am I allowed to include songs from Jamendo in my podcast (I would, of course, attribute every artist.) which is non-commercial or do I have to have Jamendo Pro licence?

I hope, someone can shad some light regarding my question. :) thanks in advance ppl! :)

That`s it: A bit of a yawn![/quote]

Faellt Dir eigentlich auf, dass Du die Person bist, die hier im Regelfall alleine steht mit dieser Beurteilung meiner Alben - was so weit OK ist, so lange Du das Album auch gehoert hast und es Deine ehrliche Meining ist.... - aber ich wiederhole mich... letztlich sind mir negative Kritiken egal, bei so vielen positiven :-) ...was soll's.... wie ich schon mal sagte... manche finden die Kelly Family scheisse... andere verehren sie... manche die Scorpions scheisse... andere verehren sie... - weder die Kelly Family noch die Scorpions geben einen Furz darauf :-) Wird immer so sein.... Also... warum sollte ich?

MP3 Format - Freestyle Percussion Magik

mey — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 01:06:13 +0200

Hi I am pretty new to jamendo and the concept of 'free' music, I just stumbled accross this album "Freestyle Percussion Magik" and it sounds good so I downloaded it and tried to see if it would fit in with a skateboard video I am creating with Adobe Premiere 1.5. No sound is heard so I tried listen to it on foobar2000 and it didn't work too....but it does work on VLC.
Is there a special codec or something I need to download ?

Cheers for the help and thanks for this great concept (which I am just starting to get my head around) that is jamendo !

Apart from being just there as a nice background music, also using it as a soundtrack for documentary films comes to mind. Is that allowed under the current licensing?[/quote]

Hi Cyberdream, thanks for writing a review. The license we chose for release via jamendo does not allow for commercial use because we want to be contacted in the case there is interest. We are interested in talking to anybody who has a film or other project (commercial or not) they might want to use it in. Producing a custom mix or something might not be out of the question.

OGG Vorbis please?

heminder — Thu, 31 Dec 2009 00:36:11 +0100

yes, there's an option to pick between MP3 and OGG, but the only useful link is the direct download MP3 link.

there's a few problems with this:
1) it's a proprietary codec, which i'm sure a lot of the community is not fond of
2) it's not as high quality as OGG can achieve at the same bitrate

the link for the OGG torrent is there but there's never EVER any seeds.

i used to use this link:

with the album ID between the double slashes to download files in OGG.
but it's not been working for the past few months for some reason :S

can we please see better OGG support?
it is a freedom-inspired community after all...

Windows 7 - new member - music NOT downloading

Daniel Christopherso — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 07:50:09 +0200

is their a problem with Win 7?

Tried it 4 times. I'm registered, etc and not a newbie.

Thanks

Direct download: why MP3 only?

hircus — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 10:09:42 +0200

I'm assuming that, if only one file format is to be chosen, MP3 would win out because more people (and devices!) are familiar with it. Is the assumption that people who know about Ogg Vorbis also know how to use Bittorrent?

As long as Jamendo seeds all their torrents, it does not really matter -- but I'm kind of curious.

Cheers,

I love poetry - so it was to my delight to find this lovely little album. This album had an unusual and sweet intimate feel to it and it was very obvious that Brenda has a passion for her work. I liked the poem "Roses and Hands" which was read without background sound. I also really enjoyed the 'stream of conscious' style of poem, "Meridians of Culture." There is a lot of bright light, and warmth in this poetry and it was very lovely to hear them during these dark days. This lady has a lot of talent. Thank you Brenda for sharing your work.[/quote]

Thank you, Orangepurple. I have great respect for your reviews on Jamendo, their sensitivity, feel for the music, your knowledge, which I've been guided by, and so am delighted that you came by and left a beautiful review for this little compilation, this 'just to see' how it might work album...

In the last half year or so I've added background music to a few of my pieces, which have been up at SoundClick, some for 5 years... one of the criteria that Jamendo moderators moderate for is "Is it music?" which I took to mean not just voice but an instrumental component... and I had worried that putting one piece in without 'music' might be problemmatic. Now I realize that I should email support for clarification... because sometimes voice is enough... so I thank you for that feedback.

By what means do you listen to music ?

Winter Cheer to all my Jamendo Friends

orangeupurple — Wed, 23 Dec 2009 15:53:48 +0100

To all my friends on Jamendo, The beauty of the dark winter is that we all try a little harder to cheer each other up. So here is my cheer to you: Happy holidays to you and your families. May your homes be warm and bright. May you find your inner love and joy: your heart's desire. And above all find the peace you seek within yourself and with your neighbors. God bless our musicians and my fellow listeners. Peace - Love - Joy - Happiness

That's All - From your friend Barbara Wolfsong

P.S. Last night I tried to send this message to all my Jamendo friends via Jamendo Email. I was able to get a few messages out before Jamendo stopped me and accused me of sending Spam. They banned me from sending Email, period. :shocked: OK - well it is my firm belief that there is always a work-around for everything. So here I am. Many of us have a firm belief that 'nobody' reads these, but here is my message and now its for everyone who is 'nobody' here on Jamendo.

Happy Holidays to all!

Playlist Managing

I'll start off by apologizing for starting this topic if there is already one out there like it, so sorry...
But I think that there should be an easier way to shuffle the music on a playlist around inside of using the Up and Down arrows to move one song at a time. I think it should be drag and drop, but that's just my suggestion...

One Big Torrent?

pterandon — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 02:21:45 +0100

Isn't there a way to get say a 250MB or 2GB torrent of a whole bunch of music? The design of the torrent listing doesn't allow for sorting by size. I don't see the point in bothering with torrents when we're only talking about a 20 or 40MB album.

OGG Torrents?

SndChaser — Sat, 05 Dec 2009 23:07:20 +0100

Is it just me, or are most of the OGG torrents either unavailable, or under-seeded? I've tried to download 6 torrents, I managed to get one, and a second is going to take 6+ hours because there is only 1 seeder.

Why isn't there any direct downloads of OGG versions of the releases? I, personally, prefer to automatically download my music in a non-copyright / patent encumbered format. I know there are others that feel this way too. I recognize that we are likely in the minority, but leaving things as they are is just making matters worse in my mind...at this point I find that Jamendo is a relatively useless place for me to get music...despite my liking the range of music that is being offered.

HTTP OGG downloads and/or more seeders

singpolyma — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 21:23:52 +0100

The problem with OGG/Vorbis here at Jamendo has always been that many albums have no seeders. It seems like someone (archive.org? I might convince my university computer science club. ibiblio?) could donate bandwidth if needed, for either HTTP downloads or just to act as permanent seeders. I have some albums I have been waiting months for and there is just never anyone to get them from...

CSS not loading?

jordonk27 — Sun, 20 Dec 2009 16:23:04 +0100

For the past day or so, one of Jamendo's stylesheets hasn't been loading, which messes up the layout of the site. (It looks very... default. White background, default font, all that stuff.)

The source indicates that the following stylesheets should be given to non-IE users:

http://cdn.imgjam.com/static/csspacks/www_mandarine_5b9a26d3a1d4bd8e5a22882b91d857ba.gz.css
http://cdn.imgjam.com/static/csspacks/www_vanilla_3c95ec80b498a82d9a031d17d9dc6342.gz.css

However, only the second one loads for me. When I try to load the first one by itself, Firefox gives me its generic 404 error message.

Is anyone else having this problem? I'm using Firefox 3.5.6 on Ubuntu 9.10. It seemed to start happening after I upgraded from 3.5.5. An extension isn't the cause because I still have the problem in safe mode.

potential scam purported to be from jamendo newsletter?

Starman9x — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 19:50:31 +0100

I don't wish to be overly alarmist, but I just received a "newsletter" purportedly from "Jamendo Alert" [newsletter@mailing.jamendo.com] that doesn't seem 100% kosher

-- the sending system is "aluminium-th.ccmdcampaigns.net " (ok, could be a mass-mailing company that jamendo employs)

-- the "plain text" version of the message refers to links at "http://www.facebook.com", but the HTML version has those links going to "http://tre.emv3.com" - guess which ones are more likely to be clicked on?

ultimately, these pull up the facebook login page, not the pages they purport to be - so far as I can tell it went to the "real" facebook page, but what assurance do I have that this isn't routed through some password-grabber?

So, was this a legit post from Jamendo, or an unusual attempt to harvest facebook login information?

Industree Music Network Inc. Launches Revolutionary Online Music Monetization Model

MetropolisMedia — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 19:00:51 +0100

Url: http://www.TheIndustree.com/

Costa Mesa, CA-December 15, 2009- Industree Music Network, Inc., a new web-based company that centers around Social Music Sharing™, an innovative online music distribution and monetization platform, launches. Social Music Sharing™ combines social networking, music, and the ability for fans to share in the artists' album sales that they directly and indirectly help generate.

Social Music Sharing™ takes the most powerful component from traditional network-marketing based business models, the ability for consumers to share in the sales generated by the people they directly and indirectly invite into the network, and leaves the sign-up fees, purchase requirements, and aggressive sales tactics behind.

Industree's CVO, Brandon Beachum, says, "I strongly believe the businesses that will achieve the highest degree of success in the emerging global economy will be those that understand the powerful momentum and energy that can be generated by sharing your success with the people that help to generate it in the first place. By injecting a "share the wealth" philosophy into our unique business model at such a crucial point in time when the landscape of the music business is changing so rapidly, I believe the possibilities are absolutely endless as to where we can collectively take Industree."

Industree stands firmly by the "share the wealth" philosophy; 40-50 per cent of every album sale is shared with the fans and five per cent of every sale is donated to charity.

Industree employs an "Honor System" pricing structure, which is based on the fans' honest opinion of the music that they buy. Fans ultimately name their own price for the music that they buy, and then the person who initially invited them, as well as that person's "Roots," all share in the profits.

In addition to launching the new web-platform, Industree is releasing five artists' albums exclusively on their own label, Industree Records, including the multi-platinum selling Grammy nominee, Ryan Toby.

Industree is free for both artists and fans to join, however you must be invited by a current member in order to do so. To learn more about Industree Music Network, go to www.TheIndustree.com. To schedule an interview with Brandon Beachum, please contact 949.836.4285 or admin@theindustree.com.

About Industree Music Network, Inc. Industree Music Network, Inc., was co-founded by brothers, Brandon Beachum and Ryan Beachum, in 2008. Brandon formerly worked for the Los Angeles based indie label, Pinch Hit Records. Both brothers also spent many years in various musical projects in and around the LA area. Their first-hand experiences witnessing the fans willingness to work extremely hard to help the artists that they love ultimately helped seed the idea for Social Music Sharing™ and the launch of Industree Music Network.
