I learned about animoto.com yesterday – someone had used one of my CC licensed tracks in their video and it looked intriguing. So, I thought I’d try my hand myself.
Here’s an unreleased track, Distant Towns, after the Animoto treatment. The images are from my trip to Sapporo to attend the iCommons Summit – most of them from Moerenuma Park.
*** UPDATE ***
The track has since been released under the title Faraway Places on the Stone Bell EP.

I’m mixing the last two tracks for Tafubar, bringing the total tally of mixes for Tafu up to 28. It’s been quite an epic job, but with the end in sight I have to admit that I’ve really enjoyed the experience and have learnt a lot in the process. Tafu’s album (now entitled Changeability) will be released on the Lemongrassmusic imprint soon, but the collaboration has also yielded features on five new compilation albums:
The CABACA album is not only now available in shops here in Taiwan, but has also just been uploaded to Jamendo and is available for free download. It’s not quite the entire album (the full album has more than 50 tracks, including ringtones), but these first 11 tracks form the core of this collaboration album.
You can grab it here: CABACA ON JAMENDO
The website is still under construction, but you’ll soon be able to get all the information about the CABACA album and artists featured on the album from cabaca.org.
We’re also in the process of uploading a cappellas and a bunch of stems from the album to CCMixter.org. Grab those here (more to come):
