Hey guys.
I'm organizing an upcoming video gaming related charity event soon, which involves a 25 hour livestream. I had been thinking of playing from my own collection for background music during this stream, but then I realized it might be more fun to get you all involved as well. I figure I'm going to need about 8 hours of music to cover the event without getting too repetitive (more is better, of course ).
As a developer for PlanetMinecraft.com, I'm in a position to make this event kinda big. We're currently anticipating in the area of 300k viewers throughout this event, with a possibility for more depending on how many of the pending guest spot invitations confirm their appearances. I will be hosting our livestream from a booth at Minecon, Mojang's official convention for the game, where I will be running video feeds, bringing on guests from the showrooms & panels, and collecting donations.
Because this event will be reaching such a wide audience, and because several portions will be recorded for later upload, I do not want to step on any toes when it comes to copyright and distribution. I came here to ask for direct permission to use material, and (hopefully) get some new material to play for this event.
I am willing to set up backlinks and graphics in our 'sponsors' section of our charity website, www.minecraftcharity.org, for anyone willing to send some material, whether it is actually used for the event or not.
If you're interested in helping out, or want to hear more details about what I'm organizing, get at me here, twitter, or skype @ Cipher_Punk
