Who Are We?
Launched in November 2008, ThisIsOpenMusic is an open source music label run by musicians. We operate from Brighton, UK. Open is run by Piratio but is greatly helped by John Cohen & Leo Piggot.
We don’t believe in the conventional record label. OpenMusic’s objective is to release great music and sound projects from around the world, in a free, share-friendly and re-distributable manner. We encourage you to redistribute individual tracks or whole releases via sharing links, Peer-to-Peer networks, MP3 Blogs and any other form you see fit, as long as you respect the rights of the respective Artists and follow the rules of the Creative Commons Sharing License.
Love Us!

..and Open Music gets a shout-out! Cheers Jimmy!
“Previously you’ve released music through the Jamendo webspace but recently you joined the Open Music Net Label, do you hope to gain a little more exposure from working with them?
Net-labels are good for hearing great music you never would have heard before, for free. If you listen to the open music compilation ‘Primer Vol.1’, you will hear a wide variety of quality music by people who probably would have never appeared on a compilation together otherwise. Discovering new people who are on a similar wavelength, that’s the idea I like most about being involved with Open Music I suppose.”
