I’m going to start following Ron Paul more often and his site campaignforliberty.org after seeing the video above. Of course, also after seeing this video I think I’ll also look into squatting laws in foreign lands. But what caught my attention right off the bat is the garageband track in the intro.
Now, I love the garageband library. I’ve heard garageband tracks used quite frequently, in Wal-Mart and in some McCain commercials, for instance. I’ve used it myself more than once. I think the garageband collection is one of the most useful, well-planned, all-purpose libraries I’ve ever heard. It’s free, and its ubiquity through iLife has done wonders for helping people understand the power of music in communication. In fact, garageband is why I started Fred Tunes. If there’s any place for the long tail not to be mangy and flea-bitten, it might be in the fields of music and production elements.
One of the good thing about music in productions is that it’s memorable. In the case of garageband tracks, that can also be also be a bad thing. If you recognize the track from elsewhere, the message can be confusing or lost or associated with things out of your control.
So, I’d like to offer the Campaign for Liberty my services for free. Let me make a music track for you that no one will recognize from garageband, something you can call your own. I promise it won’t be this.
