[vox] Megadeth's guitarist uses open source principles

[Bill Kendrick]

I spotted this on Twitter yesterday.  When the pandemic is over,
LUGOD should invite Kiko to come speak / have a concert. ;-)


  "GNU Health expands Raspberry Pi support, Megadeth's guitarist uses
  open source principles, and more open source news."

    Megadeth's guitarist brings OSS approaches to music

    Heavy metal fans likely know Kiko Loureiro as Megadeth's guitarist.
    Loureiro is less known in the OSS world, but that might change soon:
    His new solo album is called 'Open Source.'

    "By definition, 'open source' is related to softwares [in] which the
    original source code is made freely available and may be redistributed
    and modified," Loureiro shared in a recent interview [1].  "It brings
    us a higher sense of community, enhances our creativity and creates
    new possibilities."

    In true open source fashion, Loureiro is running an Indiegogo
    fundraiser to keep his album independent [2].  His fundraiser emphasizes
    the "Open Source Mentality," which includes making his song's stems
    available for listeners to remix.
