Local Ottawa Soul-Funk collective, The Commotions, features some of Canada's top Soul & Jazz musicians. Their musical director and saxophonist, Brian Asselin, is a former member of Motown's Funk Brothers - the backing band for almost all of Motown's recordings. In celebration of their 10th anniversary as a band, The Commotions have just released their latest album, "Volume III" - a high energy dose of all original, Motown-to-Disco era musical mastery, shimmering with the electric power of real instruments.

If you want to hear ambient noises—rain, thunder, wind, water, fire, forests, traffic, trains, arcades, planes, you know—check out Ambiphone, the latest single-serving site dedicated to this oddly recurring purpose. You can layer ambiences, and add "binaural beats" with theta waves and brown noise and what-have-you.
