DOWNLOAD FOR GOOD — Music that Changes the World:
Great artists have come together to sup­port the David Lynch Foun­da­tion by donat­ing exclu­sive never-before-released tracks to DLF Music. The result is this 33-track album.

Pro­ceeds from Down­load for Good will go to the David Lynch Foundation’s edu­ca­tional out­reach pro­grams — all based on the theme “Change Begins Within.”

We orig­i­nally worked up this song to play at a series of shows we played at the Fallsview Casino & Resort. Hugh brought it to the band and thought it would be funand dif­fer­ent for us. We ended up clos­ing a show with it — and had such a great time play­ing it and such a great response from the crowd — that we thought it would be per­fect to record for this project. We hope you all can con­nect to it like we did!

About the David Lynch Foundation:

The David Lynch Foun­da­tion was launched six years ago to bring the stress-reducing, health-promoting ben­e­fits ofTran­scen­den­tal Med­i­ta­tion® to under­served pop­u­la­tions,includ­ing at-risk inner-city youth and U.S. vet­er­ans return­ing home from com­bat with post trau­matic stress dis­or­der, as well as Native Amer­i­cans, the home­less and pris­on­ers. To date, theDavid Lynch Foun­da­tion has pro­vided schol­ar­ships for nearly 150,000 adults and youth to learn to med­i­tate, elim­i­nat­ing the trau­matic stress that under­mines aca­d­e­mic achieve­ment and fuels sub­stance abuse and vio­lent behav­ior. Inde­pen­dent pub­lished sci­en­tific research shows that med­i­tat­ing indi­vid­u­als have bet­ter over­all men­tal health and stu­dents have dra­mat­i­cally bet­ter test scores, grades and grad­u­a­tion rates, while dropout rates, sus­pen­sions, and expul­sions greatly decrease.  For more infor­ma­tion, visit: http://www.davidlynchfoundation.org .

About David Lynch:

Arguably the most renowned avant-garde film direc­tor andvisual artist of his time, David Lynch is known for hisunflag­gingly orig­i­nal cin­e­matic projects includ­ing Blue Vel­vet,Mul­hol­land Drive, Lost High­way and The Ele­phant Man, not to men­tion his cult hit TV series “Twin Peaks.” This is not his first foray into the musi­cal realm, as Lynch has a his­tory of work­ing with a host of musi­cal lumi­nar­ies. While mak­ing Blue Vel­vet, he needed a cer­tain type of song for an impor­tant scene, so Lynch and his film com­poser Angelo Badala­menti wrote the song “Mys­ter­ies of Love” to be sung by Julee Cruise. This led to Lynch and Badala­menti writ­ing and pro­duc­ing an entire album with Julee Cruise, enti­tled­Float­ing Into The Night. The song “Falling” was the theme music for “Twin Peaks” and won a Grammy for Best Pop Instru­men­tal. In 2008, hav­ing com­posed small sec­tions for his other films and his musi­cal ambi­tions grow­ing, he became theepony­mous cre­ator of a record label, David Lynch MC. More recently Lynch col­lab­o­rated on the album Dark Night of the Soulwith Sparkle­horse and Dan­ger Mouse. Lynch designed a 100-page book­let to accom­pany the album, which was ini­tially delivered–after dis­putes with the record company–in the form of a blank CD-R on which fans were told to “use as you will.”
