Overview
DZ Music was launched in 2010 by Ronald Díaz, with the only purpose to share electronic dance music for free. Díaz is a guatemalan Dj and Producer since 2003. He always shared his own material via e-mail and other platforms to his close friends but his contact with the Creative Commons community gives him the tools to share his productions to more people. In june of 2010, Díaz launched "DZ Music" in a blog platform sharing one single track, one week later Mario Hernández, a young guatemalan producer, sent his demos to Díaz and after some selection work they released the ep "Mini Chocolate", ep that generated many positive feedback from the local and international electronic scene.
The objetive of DZ Music is to share electronic dance music like techno, tech-house, minimal, house, and promote the "free music culture" in the electronic scene, change the ideals of make music for money or music to fit into a "commercial scene".
License Usage
DZ Music uses the Creative Commons licences CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 in all the music released under the label, the same licence used by Díaz to share his own material before he created the label. The CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 licence gives the freedom to the DZ's artist to share their own productions to more people around the world in a legal and most serious way: under a digital label, and gives to the label the oportunity to support the artist.
Motivations
