Helping a Family in Croatia

One of the great things about the Creative Commons license that we use on music2work2, is that it enables other media creators to easily use our music in their projects. Last week we got a request from a Croatian channel asking if they could use the music from Irene to highlight the problems that a local family are facing after their house burned down last year.

If like us you don't speak or read Croatian, the family in the video lost everything in a terrible fire more than a year ago. They were put into an absolute ruin of a house without flowing water and just one room that is safe from collapse and that can be heated. Apparently they have been forgotten by social services in Croatia so a number of independent artists have got together to raise awareness of their plight. Video's like this are used to get people interested in helping them out.

Who Gonna Bring the Funk?

Back from Australia - what an amazing Country - expensive as hell but full of some of the nicest people on the planet - will be going back as soon as we can.

I'm already head down and working to finish Wendi - lots of listening over the last couple of weeks opened a few doors and plenty of progress is being made. We shot some fantastic video and stills of sunrise at Byron Bay which will be used in the video - more on that later this week.

But before we get into anything too music2work2 - here's a video from Paris - from my cousin Alexandre (he's the awesome dude in the silver lame shirt!) - I can't get the hook out of my head and it puts a permanent grin on my face. So - if you looking for a feel good track and you wanna "get down with the funk!" - here's Dropize..

G'Day Mate!

Going on a 2 week hiatus - well - not exactly hiatus - I'm going to Australia!

Yes, it's time to get the hell out of the northern hemisphere winter and descend into southern hemisphere summer. Expect sonic influences along the lines of didgeridoos and bouncy Kangaroo themes on my return!

Just to get you (and me) in the mood, here's a little Australian development I did for an Aussie friend a few years back - it's a variation on Waltzing Matilda - music2work2 style!
