Music & Identity Remix Project

Many Sided Prism -- How Does Music Define You?

One’s personal identity is comprised of many aspects: individuality, gender, sexual orientation, social, cultural, political, etc. This many-sided prism of identity directly influences and inspires our creative work. ccMixter is exploring this through music!

Submit pells and samples. Remix through May 19! Learn more here

How do you Attribute?

1. GIVE CREDIT. Be sure to give credit in the video or app or game itself. Attribution is currency! For example, if you use cafe connection by morgantj, Attribute in the actual video or game or app: 

Music "cafe connection" by morgantj featuring Morusque
Available at ccMixter.org http://ccmixter.org/files/morgantj/18947
Under CC BY license http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

2. LINK BACK. Attribution requires you link back and helps the artist get credit. For example, in the YouTube description field or on the webpage where you embed your video or have folks download your app, the Attribution link should like this:

Music "cafe connection" by morgantj featuring Morusque
