Since day[9] has moved to justin.tv, he has been unable to play music due to copyright laws, and it seems likes hes been forcing himself to find something to fill the time that was previously filled with music.
So I was thinking, what can we as a community do to help a man who has given so much to us to help make his dailies a bit easier.
Why not make music for him? It would be free of copy right and be our contribution to his amazing dailies that have taught so many.
So I impose the challenge to all you liquid readers, and especially you musicians (like myself), can you make music for day[9] so that he has something to start his dailies with again.
I'll try to keep up with this thread and update it with all the songs that are uploaded and link them in this post.
I think this is an excellent idea, as soon as I heard that he was unable to play music that he didn't own the rights to, I immediately felt inclined to shoot him an email stating that I give him permission to use my own personal tracks in his daily. Here are a few links to my original productions to get things started:
NOTE: any of the above tracks that do not have a download option on the soundcloud link can be downloaded from my official site's "singles" page: http://bit.ly/edzDBN
as you can see, there are several genres to choose from. Granted these may not all be his "style" but I'm happy to offer them for use on his stream royalty-free :D
Ambient Electroey stuff. Seems like this guy would be cool using his music based on his disclaimer at the bottom. Seems kinda like something day9 might like. All of his albums are free to download.
Seems like a great idea, only that I lack skill and can't really create something that day9 could use, but I'm sure that enough people will come forward and create some awesome tunes for him!
Before we post stuff of other songs/artists not related to the SC scene we should really stress more community involvement. Both Day9 and the community can benefit from a thing like this. Day9 gets cool music, and SC2 community gets to showcase its work to everyone else.

I couldn't agree more It's definitely a win/win situation!
Here's an idea, what if we could get a few TL musical artists together to collaborate on an official theme or intro song for the Day[9] daily? We could come up with a few clips and then let Day[9] pick his favorite!
I think it'd be worth pitching to him to see if he's at all interested, I for one can say I'd definitely be on-board for a project like that.
http://www.modarchive.org is a site that contains publicly available free music. These are not standard wav format style tracks though, they are sort of like a combination between wav/MP3 and MIDI, some tracks can just be chiptunes, but others can be indistinguishable from an MP3. A decent comparison would be like SVG vs JPG.
Generally mod-style tracks take up much less space because they can use the same sound effects or instruments over and over again - the biggest space sink is stuff like vocals, because that obviously can't be looped much or at all.
I will continue to contribute, as this song I made a little while ago for day9 as a tribute/thanks for all his music streaming. its totally influenced my taste in music for the better and me as a person, I can't thank him enough. hope this helps your cause guys, and i'd love if he would do this, and hear my song at some point ^^

My contribution to the Day9 cause, more to come! feedback appreciated via my song-related TeamLiquid blog, i would love some public opinions on a direction for the next one (it will have day9 sounds/speech clips)
If that link doesn't work for whatever reason, lemme know, but i know mediafire and such have a DL limit so that one should be infinite ^^
