SXSW 2010 Music [Part 2]
SO MUCH MUSIC!
A bit ago I wrote about a SXSW 2010 torrent containing all the music SXSW gave away on its site. Quite cool someone took the time to download them all by hand off the site and make it easy for people to get them all. After listening for 3 days straight during work I was only through about 1/4th of it. After 20 days of listening off an on(not the entire time mind you) I am in the Artist S’s. As in artists that start with S as their name.
OH right, and recently the torrent folks put up the last half of the bands. Uhm, yeah 2.05G of more music! I havent included them into this playlist yet, but I will and make my way through those songs too. 
So far its been quite a bit of fun to listen to all the bands. Some are bad, some are very very good. I might post up my favs when I am done.

SXSW Torrent 2010
Every year SXSW releases free mp3s on their site. This year is no exception and people have nabbed the music and wrapped it up in one bit torrent download. So far only one torrent is available with 656 songs rounding 3.35G!
I picked up the 2007 torrent and found some great music. This years batch seems very good as well. Been listening to it as I work and I am already in the “B” artists. I sorted the list by artist name. Total run time of the music? 1 day 17 hours and 25 minutes.
Great Free Music
Check out the above sampler album “Ghostly Essentials Avant-Pop One.” Not only is the price right but the music is really great.

Hit the chicken with the sword!
“Six years ago, an eager 14 year old had the idea of remaking all of the songs from the hit video game series “The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time” to sound like they were being played by live musicians. He took his idea, and three demo songs to a few web forums and a few music professionals. The feedback was clear: the idea was original, but quite a daunting task.
82 tracks later, Zelda Reorchestrated has finally finished its original goal. We have completed the Ocarina of Time album!”
