Welcome to bandagerock.net

This site was mainly created with the purpose of distributing and spreading our musical productions under a Creative Commons license.
Everyone can download and use our songs and many other contents from this site (artwork, photos, videos, etc.). Available audio formats are: OGG , FLAC (the first one is a compressed codec, the second one is a lossless and high quality format, both are free and recommended by us) and MP3.
Most of our work is totally self-produced, which means that we personally take care about every aspect of the audio production, from the recording to the audio mixing, using our equipment collected with great sacrifices over the years.
For more information, please see the Fog Recordings and blogs sections (online soon) where we will describe every aspect of the production, the machinery and the equipment that we used and all the costs sustained.

To manage all the activities related to our band huge efforts are needed in both economic and time terms, because we are not professional musicians and we all have a full time job.
So, if you appreciate our music, we only ask you to contribute directly to its development and our continuous improvement in two ways.

  • you can to us
  • you can BUY something from the Support Us section

We believe that eliminating all the intermediaries will produce some substantial benefits to both the author and the listener, lowering costs for both of them, linking them directly and introducing more freedom than the old copyright model.
This is, in our opinion, a great opportunity offered by the Internet tool to achieve real and transparent independent results.

We also want to go a bit futher and try to conceive this site as some kind of glue that collects inside similar realities (that use a copyleft license model such as creative commons), being them musical, cultural or computer related.
If only we think about how good has been brought by the Free Software Movement by Richard M. Stallman or by the world of Open Source in all these years, namely many excellent free programs and the GNU/Linux Operating Systems, we believe that a similar successful road would also be possible in the cultural field.
We try to make our contribution to the cause...
In the meantime we wish you good navigation and good listening.
