TL;DR: It's more about short sounds like birdsong, weather, etc than music. Although, I saw some music samples as well.

Freesound aims to create a huge collaborative database of audio snippets, samples, recordings, and all sorts of bleeps, ...

Nice project.

Thanks for the explanation (esp. since the blog post doesn't appear to even link back to the main web site).

You've probably missed it, it's at the top, just under the image. There are 2 links: "Home" and "Back to freesound.org". You need the second one.

Huh, I’m pretty sure that wasn’t there when I read the article. I recall seeing only the “Home” link (and I did a Ctrl+F on the HTML and didn’t see any links that went outside the blog sub domain except for on a user comment at the bottom of the page).

But glad to know there is in fact a link now!
