This is my feeling exactly. I am pondering starting a project to get Bahamian 
artists to record Bahamian folk music. I am thinking of doint the recording 
in ardour and releasing the ardour project files. Sequencer files would be 
good as well. Perhaps Hydrogen for the drum stuff if not live. I am also 
going to look into whether jamin can store some file representing the 
mastering phase and releasing that as well.

I wanto to give resources to people who want to learn all parts of the 
process. Can you imagine what a great resource it would be for someone 
wanting to learn final mixdown and mastering techniques to have such source 
materials available?

all the best,
