Posted on 25. Jan, 2008 by Lost.

Community content driven sites are having very good days indeed. The LostAudio initiative however, sees some problems with this in regard to music; in particular sample pools and so on. There is a need for quality (both formats and actual content). That is why we feature iBeat.org here. It is big, and getting bigger – [...]

Samplepack – Small wav audio package from SoundSnap
Posted on 21. Dec, 2007 by Lost.
We finally got around to Soundsnap. A community upload site that has all kind of audio; be it soundscaping effects, loops, shots and other crap. Soundsnap use their own license, but it’s pretty amazing that everything is (more or less) public domain. It really is a very big library, so it fits the LostAudio concept [...]

Pax Cecilia – Up one on the free music movement
Posted on 20. Dec, 2007 by Lost.
It’s a shame that only the big guns get publicity. Take the hype about Radioheads latest release; only the shitty format was free, and more along that road: extras on the ‘real’ deal disc. Pax Cecilia made a more noteworthy contribution to the ‘free music’-movement back in April when they released their new album. Just [...]

GOOD? Imeem sign with all the majors
Posted on 10. Dec, 2007 by Lost.
The Social Music Site Imeem is the first of its kind to have signed a deal with all the four majors. Taking ad-supported music to another level (up/down, good/bad?). We’ll be watching how this progresses, and listening to over five million songs. Almost as much as iTunes. Although we couldn’t find anything on their website [...]

Heard it all | TPB vs TheMan
Posted on 22. Sep, 2007 by Lost.
The Pirate Bay sues the Man. Haven’t we heard it all now. Perhaps this is good music news… Perhaps this will trigger a move towards progression. Doubt it – but perhaps. There is hardly anything more conservative in the entertainment industry, than this stunt. They’ve fired everyone … and only leaving fans with larger bills [...]

Digg forgot to turn on their toolspage and stuff
Posted on 28. Aug, 2007 by Lost.
Digg went down for a reboot late last night. Came up fine after the update… but now – some 15-16 hours later, one is still not able to access the Digg tools. Busy doing everything else than keeping updated on the audio front, LostAudio wanted do push some Digg music stories onto the site yesterday. [...]

Downloadable teaser update
Posted on 22. Aug, 2007 by Lost.
As one may have noted, there are still not links to teasers as .wav files. There is a pretty good reason for this, of course. LostAudio decided to post these to the moderated music production library iBeat. These would have been posted in to the sessions/tracks category, which is a pretty cool way of posting [...]
