my songs being used to help deaf people enjoy music

My songs are being used to help deaf people with cochlear implants get enjoyment from music again.

I am not sure how long this BBC video piece will be live but it is quite a fun 60 seconds… http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-hampshire-19786914

A computer-based music rehabilitation programme has been launched to help deaf people hear music more clearly.

Developed at the University of Southampton it allows deaf people to pick out the individual sounds of musical instruments which they often find difficult.

The Institute of Sound and Vibration Research has spent two years working with patients from the South of England Cochlear Implant Centre to create the programme.

my music is now on iLicenseMusic

I have always had a lot of time for John Buckman, the man behind Magnatune so I am really happy to be getting involved in his newest venture, iLicenseMusic.

You can see my page on the site here – http://ilicensemusic.com/g/Alt%20Rock/Robin%20Grey …and yes, of course I am ‘alt-rock’ …how dare you suggest otherwise!

iLicenseMusic provides royalty free music can be reuse and distribute in pretty much any project. A £89 monthly fee gives complete access to the entire catalog, which seems like a good deal to me and John always makes sure a good chunk of that money gets to the creators and musicians.
