Find More Mp3 Downloads Press Releases

(PRWEB) November 27, 2004

A new MP3 website – www.download2mp3.com – has just been launched. This site presents carefully selected classical music pieces played on New World percussion instruments and sythesizers. This European instrumental music is given new world overtones by steel bands and marimba sounds, contrasted and supported by synthesizers including a classic Mega Moog.

These arrangements or ‘remixes’ highlight the counter-point and harmony of the original and are true to the score. But we hear the music in a new context and familliar tunes are presented in a fresh ear-catching remix. Steel Drums and Marimbas seem to evoke the sunny and relaxing environments of Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean islands of the West Indies.

The selection includes:

Johann Sabastian Bach preludes, tocattas and fugues

Ludvig Van Beethoven bagatelles and marches

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart piano quartets

Modest Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition

Domineco Scarlatti keyboard works

This sheer listening pleasure is exclusively available online in MP3 format as HiFi recordings with LoFi introductory clips so that you can try before you buy.

Tracks are priced between 0.5 and 1 US($) for a noncommercial Creative Commons licence. Access to download the MP3 files is mediated by BitPass prepaid accounts. These are simple and secure prepaid accounts designed to facilitate micro payments. They can be opened and topped up using credit cards or PayPal.

This means that you only buy the tracks you really want.

Download2MP3 are open to negotiations for commercial licence applications for these works.

Note to Editors:

Access to review copies of individual arrangements will be available on application.
