From the website of 1bit wonder: "_1bit #032 by Latex Distortion and Gary West will be our last release. Too many other projects have been consuming our time lately, so instead of doing things half-heartedly we decided to quit when it's best. Thanks for three wonderful years full of love and great music! Our site will remain active for a while and may still serve you as an archive."
Thank you 1bit wonder for the beautiful releases! Netwaves will cast an interview with the founders, probably in nws062.

some netlabel stats
Simon C. published some stats on IA:
"Just thought it might be nice to mention this, because I've noticed the rate of netlabel adoption is quite rapidly increasing. Some brief stats:
- 850 netlabels, in total
- increasing by around 25 netlabels per month.
- 11,990 separate 'items', that is singles, EPs, or albums
- increasing by 5/10 items per day (!)
Not bad at all! Obviously, the upload system for the Archive is not the MOST userfriendly in the world, but the structure of netlabels (collections, items, download counts) works really well for microlabels. So kudos to everyone at the Archive for getting everything running smoothly."

mixed emotions
(photo embe - cc license by-nc-sa)
netwaves.org is very very proud to announce its next musical achievement. The mixtape netlabel OP3N sent netwaves.org an invitation to make a mixtape, and this resulted in "Netwaves: mixed emotions". This mix is not a showcase of DJ skills in the first place, but rather an anthology of musical pearls hidden in the vast amount of tunes on the internet. The songs are alternated by field recordings, taped in Louvain, a little university town in Belgium. Besides being the hometown of netwaves.org, it is also famous for its beer Stella Artois.
The mix was compiled by embe, with a little help from TransistorLab.
Also available at an archive in your neighbourhood.
We also want to thank the very busy bee Applezup for the great care and his patience and for this opportunity.

Petition: stop the extension of 50 year in copyright
Sound Copyright says: "Copyright in sound recordings currently lasts for 50 years. Yet the recording industry continues to demand that this term be extended. ... But term extension would be an injustice to European musicians and musical culture, and may harm our economy.
... Copyright is a bargain. In exchange for their investment in creating and distributing sound recordings to the public, copyright holders are granted a limited monopoly during which are allowed to control the use of those recordings. This includes the right to pursue anyone who uses their recordings without permission. But when this time is up, these works join Goethe, Hugo and Shakespeare in the proper place for all human culture � the public domain.
... Seminal soul, reggae, and rock and roll recordings will soon be freed from legal restrictions, allowing anyone (including the performers themselves and their heirs) to preserve, reissue, and remix them.
... Major record labels want to keep control of sound recordings well beyond the current 50 year term so that they can continue to make marginal profits from the few recordings that are still commercially viable half a century after they were laid down.
...
If you agree that copyright term on sound recordings should not be extended past 50 years, please, sign this petition today. Together, we can defeat copyright term extension."
Sound Copyright is an initiative by the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and the Open Rights Group (ORG).

Best Of Netlabels
I must have missed this important one somehow: Phlow magazine has released a "Best of Netlabels" vol. 1 in january already, and now there's a vol. 2 peeping at their website.
The goal is to bring every month an anthology of the best tunes around the world. The title of the series is "Their Finest Hour". We are very happy with this initiative, because there's tons and tons of music on the internet and netlabels, and we welcome every effort to filter and organise this stuff. Thanks Phlow! The releases are made with much care, love and respect. There's streaming, download per tune, zip-file and a nice cover.
Enjoy!
