Moon Staar

Moon Staar is a bit scary. Lots of free MP3 files. Buy CDs or buy music files. All about noisecore, darkwave and other hard-on-the-ear genres. Download full albums for $8. Not bad at all.

Creativecommons.org is a pretty strange site with 16 tracks that appeared on a Wired-magazine CD once. All the tracks were made under the Creative Commons license, so you can do with them as you please. Beastie Boys and David Byrne appear here.
