While it’s true that ccMixter is owned and operated by Creative Commons, we here at ccMixter are not lawyers and in fact, the lawyers at CC have told the ccMixter staff that we are not allowed to dispense legal advice. And quite frankly we were glad to hear it. If you think about it, legal advice carries risk and a remix site where people can barely agree on the proper EQ setting on a kick track is hardly an adequate resource for legal consultation.

We heed the directive from the law staff CC in a very narrow fashion so most questions about what samples are legal to post to this site and what constitutes a “commercial” context when using music found on this site are going to be deferred.

The good news is that there are established online communities that are staffed by CC and ready to discuss all kind of issues related to licenses. You can find them all at the Creative Commons discussion area.

So in summation: If you have a question or comment about music or ccMixter itself, you’re in the right place. Questions about CC licenses should be directed to the CC discussion lists.

did a little remix for the Noite de Carnaval-Cibelle remix-contest.
I want to put my remix on a myspace-page, so..what do I need to do?
