Contracast: lots of free contra dance music |

There are lots of tunes that I'd like to be able to play. Finding
recordings of them can be difficult. Luckily, contracast exists. It's a
weeklyish podcast by robert cox that is like a radio show for contra
music. The archives are all available freely online and are under
the creative
commons by-nc-nd license. So as long as you're using them
noncommercially, not changing them, and giving full attribution, you
can do whatever you want with them. At some point I want to put
together a full index from tune name to all the places where people
play it, but for now, here's a complete index listing all the
podcasts. If anyone wanted to pick some and give me nice machine
readable lists of the tunes available on that one it would speed up
the process of generating a full index.
