CLLCT Forever!

Remember my post on CLLCT.com? The site is resting in peace due to reasons I'm not sure of nor would I publicize them if I were fully aware. End of an era? I hope not. A resurrection is possible and several community members are attempting to do so. Whether it can be duplicated may be a bit of a long shot, after well over a million views and the sense of a selfless loving family that it provided, CLLCT (The Collective Family) is an original. I'm aware that this post doesn't come close; it is simply an homage.

The line between making music for the love of it and doing it in an attempt as a career, to make money, even to simply pay the bills, is not a fine one. It is a huge gap between art and greed. Music is not a job, it is a creative hobby that very few are lucky enough to live off of entirely and this is why the Collective Family has offered their music up for free. Because they are true artists and the art is what brought them together, no egos in sight.

Anyone from the CLLCT who has any of their music zipped in an archive, feel free to comment here with your links!

For now, here are a quick, tiny handful; the first two were sent to me by the artist, the others were one I recalled being archived on an alternate link in the site and I found through Google's cache. Music that is worth saving!
