Field Recorders Collective

I came across an NPR program the the other day discussing an organization dedicated to collecting, preserving, and releasing some never before heard music distributed amongst friends and collectors. They are the Field Recorders Collective.

The music is primarily bluegrass and string bands. Sound never heard from some artists never heard of. Homemade recordings, improvs brought together and remastered from the collectors themselves and "remastered" using some basic home computer software.

You can listen to the NPR broadcast here.
