Art Shall Be Free Recordings

"Woodcutter

Cut out my shadow

Free me from the torture

of seeing myself fruitless" 


                                                                                                 - Federico Garcia Lorca



What is Art Shall Be Free Recordings?

Art Shall Be Free Recordings is a not for profit collaborative working to raise awareness of the work of underrepresented artists - usually for reasons that they challenge the mediums they work in. They are artists who are solely about the art and a love of humanity told through their communities. What we do is help them get their music to a wider audience. However, everything we do is based on a principle of community versus the usual thing of throwing money & power behind the project. If you are in art to make money, then ASBF is not for you. We are about establishing genuine connections between people who wish to share authentic art and sound, not shifting commodities.

From Bands to Spoken Word to Conceptual Art to to Podcasts to Journalism…

Art Shall Be Free Recordings believes in full artistic control for its artists. Despite this it asks that its artists do not seek to unduly shock or repulse unless it is handled with sensitivity. It asks that its artists ennoble humanity and give voice to those parts of it which are too often neglected. It is a not for profit organisation. All funds generated go back into the artists development & promotion and where permissible to donate to worthy organizations which work towards the recognition of Universal Human Rights.

OUR ARTISTS OWN ALL RIGHTS TO THEIR WORK AND CAN LEAVE THE AGREEMENT WITH THE COLLECTIVE WHENEVER THEY CHOOSE. THE FOCUS OF THIS COLLECTIVE TO FOSTER COMMUNITY.

So far, it's artists include:

Australian acts Mel From Melbourne, Bait, Forest Radio, Earth To Malachi, & Fijian acts The Bula Brothers & Luke Cama.

Art Shall Be Free Recordings is works in the pursuit of friendship and the development of community. In sharing audiences and personal networks our collective network grows.

Win ugly

  Win ugly I win ugly for some bloody reason I win ugly Life’s like footy Playin into the wind Some days you act like you wish it was over Some days you get the word from the coach & you take it in your stride Though you know ur only D grade Who thought you could play ruck rover & play a ruddy blinder Who thought you had it in ya? Not even ur mother Where did that come from? For you to walk like a king who knew you could sing? About pawning ur weddin ring When ur alone You ain’t nothin but alone Just don’t scam yourself Though u can’t get any help Yes I win ugly I like it in the wet Like a 10 year old boy Drawing with a stick in the dirt Go in hard & you don’t get hurt But a wise man once scribbled The hard is overcome by the soft Like stone in water Like watching a child’s first steps One day in the sun Feelin so privileged to have been there How’d you get so lucky?

In short, sharing versus selfishness

  In short, sharing versus selfishness   I have heard about The Yolngu people & gasped & sighed & dreamed & with my kite Tacked with & against the wind; Here in Dja Dja Wurrung country, Returning, Solitude for the Yolngu people Is prohibited It’s reason of ‘sorcery’ Offered Pride & closed heartedness Stunting & ending wisdom Without love, So much the better is Living communally on Country, The sounds of Nature: Birds animals water frogs Wind trees & bushes Yarnin & laughter: Relaxed, Part OF country, Not straining adrift to Examine & stand apart, & so, I write here Amongst friends, The sounds of The sitting room Food prepared, The birds the frogs A rabbit to be Air rifle shot & eaten People walkin & talkin & A sneeze The click tick Of finished oyster shells In the fireplace Chewing noises Pottery, Life in good Company Cooperation ...
