Laneo supports Eco-Music - 22 Oct 2007

lisapaul.pngI’m really proud of the people behind the design and functionality of the Laneo Blog. Not only did they do a great job in my opinion, but I recently learned they make “eco-music”. Paul who runs TWO THIRTY (the agency that designed and maintains our Laneo blog) is an avid surfer and back country camper. He is also a very accomplished musician whose group MOJAVE has just finished recording a great new album called “Stories”.

Paul and I have often talked about the place music has in our outdoor sports experience. Paul says to me – “it brings background music to the dances of waves and the ballet of leaves” and even though I’m not a musician, I really understand what he means.

Everyone’s personal taste in music is different of course, but I’m sure you’ll find his approach to distributing it, a compelling story. You see MOJAVE is only distributing their music via on-line means, specifically because of all the waste and pollution associated with producing and fabricating CD’s, and they’re not stopping there. They also belong to the “1% for the PLANET” which means they donate 1% of their album sales to actions in favor of the planet.

In times of ultra competitive ambition and ruthless capitalism, we at Laneo find this outright fantastic. When you have a minute, pop over to iTunes and listen to a sample of MOJAVE. I believe you will enjoy the music as much as we do – and maybe even end up purchasing a copy for yourself.

thumbs up Mojave!

Green music from Turtuga Blanku as well: all songs of Turtuga Blanku are produced using only solar power. Although not necessarily with environmental lyrics, you can simply hear the sunshine in this music.

Please support environmentally friendly music and visit www.myspace.com/TurtugaBlanku to get a taste of more Eco Music!

regards,

Congratulations for your site.
Carry on ! I think that this environmental work you are doing is probably prefigurating a new way of life for this century !
