Creatively Uncommon: Volume 2

We here at Vocoid haven't put up any new material for a while so I thought I'd put together another compilation of fantastic free music that other artists are making. When we were working on the original Creatively Uncommon compilation the scene was much different. I ended up tracking down artists on myspace and asking them to if they'd be willing to put one or more of their tracks under a creative commons license so I could use it for the project. Now there are many new sources for material put out under a user friendly license which makes this kind of thing much easier. I'd like to thank the folks at freemusicarchive.org, which is the exclusive source for the following tracks. I hope you all enjoy this mix!

Vocoid media temporarily unavailable

The web ISP that's serving the majority of vocoid.com's media just posted this on their status page:

Outage Information
On Saturday, February 20 2010, at approximately 2:20 p.m. MST during an annual fire system inspection of our data center the fire suppression system was inadvertently triggered and discharged into the data center environment. The discharge of the fire system has affected the hardware and operations of our servers. Not all servers have been affected by the discharge. We are working to restore servers and services as quickly as possible. Due to the nature of this interruption we will be experiencing extended outages.

:(

I'm working to upload the media to another system, so if you happen to be trying to download something and you're getting an error, hang tight and try back soon. I'll have stuff up as fast as I can!

Welcome to vocoid 2.0

The active parties contributing to vocoid.com have decided to do some restructuring. We've decided to turn the site into more of a straight up music blog for the people that use it regularly, and with that decision we've migrated to blogger. Hopefully with change we'll be a little more active.

Squelchy remixes Cubik & Origami

Originally known for the slow-burning downtempo funk of their eponymous debut on Wide Hive Records, San Francisco duo Cubik & Origami are back with a new, truly stunning long-player titled "Slept in on Doomsday" which has just been released on Dinner Party Records. I'm pleased to have contributed a remix of the title track which is available for free download at the Cubik and Origami website.

Medling Again is finally here

I know I promised this a LONG time ago (seriously, about 9 mos.) and then completely dropped the ball on it, but at long last, I've posted a "Release" for Medling Again. Basically, I added meta-data. That's right, it took me 9 mos. to add m3u tags! Actually, there were extenuating circumstances regarding the late release, but that's neither here nor there, and I want to heartily apologize the the contributors for not getting this out sooner. Thanks to everyone who took the time to participate in this remix. Look at it this way.. it's almost like a double promotion at this point. Anyway, check it out if you haven't already:

New Release: Sometime is Now

With DSL's prodding, and a healthy amount of free time on my hands, I entered the RPM Challenge as well. Sometime is Now is the result.

The album is part goth disco, part glam rock, part emo-tronica and all personal.
