[Wikimediaindia-l] Need music clips available under Creative commons license
Hey, We need some music clips that can be used as background score for some outreach videos we are preparing. http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/ is one source we found. Sound Cloud has some clips too but many are reproduction of copyrighted music. I am aware of http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Audio_files_of_music but looking for easy to navigate sources providing contemporary music.

Maybe we could request musicians here (in Goa) to create these. What category of music is needed?

hi, Just a rough search on Jamendo (one of the websites on the list on the Creative Commons website - https://creativecommons.org/legalmusicforvideos ) for carnatic music gave me two results - http://www.jamendo.com/en/search?bq=tags_idstr:*^5q=*:*%20AND%20tags_idstr:%22carnatic%22 Perhaps, Indian musicians are already contributing to such an effort but might be worthwhile for us to do so more actively. Not only for background music for our videos but also perhaps on some Wikimedia article.

[Wikimediaindia-l] Coverage: Konkani Vishwakosh (encyclopaedia) relaunched with a free license, may boost Konkani Wikipedia
A special 'thank you' to Rohini Lakshane for working on this article. Regards, Nitika Konkani Vishwakosh (encyclopaedia) relaunched with a free license, may boost Konkani Wikipedia http://www.dnaindia.com/blogs/1901806/post-konkani-vishwakosh-encyclopaedia-relaunced-with-a-free-license-may-boost-konkani-wikipedia The Konkani Vishwakosh was re-released under a Creative Commons (CC-BY-SA 3.0) license last month at an event held at Goa University, Taleigao. The digital version of the Vishwakosh (encyclopaedia) will be available in a few months. Under the license, the Vishwakosh could serve as a source of reliable references for the Konkani langauge Wikipedia, which is currently under incubation. Last month, Goa University re-released a four-volume encyclopaedia, Konkani Vishwakosh under a free license. The encyclopaedia presents information about the world with an emphasis on the Konkani language, Goan culture, the folklore, history, and geography of Goa, etc. What does the open license mean? The Konkani Vishwakosh was relaunched under the CC-BY-SA 3.0 (Creative Commons-Attribution-Share Alike 3.0) license. The Creative Commons licenses are a legal tool for copyright owners to manage rights and permissions for their works. Under the CC-BY-SA 3.0, users are free to reuse, modify, build upon, and redistribute content from the Konkani Vishwakosh, as long as they attribute it. The same license also applies to any work created by using content from the Konkani Vishwakosh. Licensing the sources of knowledge is a way of enabling access to knowledge, especially for those who may have little or no access to it. Relevance to Wikipedia One of the cornerstones of Wikipedia is the use of citations. All writing on Wikipedia must be supported by reliable and independent references. Any editor may challenge and removed unsubstantiated content on Wikipedia. The Konkani Vishwakosh could serve as a vast and versatile source of references for articles in the Konkani language Wikipedia, which is currently under incubation. Content from the Vishwakosh could go into the building of the Konkani Wikipedia as the text on Wikipedia too is available under a CC-BY-SA 3.0 license. Digitisation of Konkani Vishwakosh The Centre for Internet and Society - Access to Knowledge (CIS-A2K) team and Goa University together have undertaken a project to digitise the Vishwakosh over a period of two months (October and November 2013). They have made a call for volunteers to type out pages from the encyclopaedia in the Devanagri script. More about the project here. Links to press coverage, and report of the launch event by CIS-A2K. ___ Wikimediaindia-l mailing list Wikimediaindia-l@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from the list / change mailing preferences visit https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaindia-l

- Free Music Archive (http://freemusicarchive.org/) has a lot of downloadable audio files. - Both archive.org and soundcloud.com have options to search only cc licensed music. - http://www.ektoplazm.com claims of having 7 million free licensed music files - More links to such portals at: http://www.hongkiat.com/blog/creative-common-music-download - WikiCommons has a lot of music, but it might be little difficult to search them Best!
