Just looking into the work of the chappy-who-remixed-me-via-stealth - he's written a lot of stuff! I only got chance to listen to his first album so far: Naoise

He clearly does the CC thing through and through - it looks like he uses CC stuff for sample sources, then releases his material via CCMixter, which is pretty cool. It's good to see the theory of free material being used to make new works (which are then also released freely) being put into practice, and to good effect.

The tracks on Naoise range from stompy techno to breakbeats'n'bass to chilled textures-and-tones-and-shit.

It's free, it's really good and quite diverse for one album!

If you like electronica, breaks and a hint of the experimental, go and get yourself some great music, free and legal.

Stompy techno, breakbeats and chilled? In one album?

Good times for all.

related to this, I've been downloading an awful lot of the public domain films hosted by archive.org. There's some complete shite, but if you've got some sort of magical device that can upscale the pitifully low-resolution B&W 1950s videos to something watchable there are some gems in there.

vlc running on a lappy connected to a massive screen? :)

that'll do the trick nicely, if you're sitting a few feet away… I've been playing them back on my Apple TV, which is pretty decent at upscaling 320x240 to 720p [surprisingly], VLC should be fairly comparable. the brain's a wonderful thing when it comes to ignoring artefacts at a distance, though :)
