Hello Everyone! I make chiptunes on trackers which are quite famous for “keygen music” associated with software piracy. My philosophy with the music I make is that all my tracks can be downloaded for free, are copyright free, and most importantly: its source files can be accessed.

The last bit is something I dont see too much of in the music communities (correct me if I am wrong). I would definitely like to see this more popularised perhaps making something akin to “FOSS Music”. Under all of my tracks I put a mediafire link to .xm file. I think this would be incredibly useful to creators as there many times where I hear a song and just love a specific instrument or sample they used and would like to use it in my own music.

Thoughts?

    Yeah I defo agree, so much of how I learnt to create music was from tinkering in other people’s music. Do you know if there is any fedi site or forum that specifies in open source music?
