Protest Music
From Project Chanology - Toronto Division
Toronto Anonymous is taking steps to organize its music playlists for future protests.
Volunteers with audio equipment will be needed, and are encouraged to contribute.
For the sake of unity, we request that all those intending to play music at future protests coordinate their efforts here.
We don't need a hundred people all playing different songs at once.

Official Music
An official playlist will be compiled by IRC organizers and posted here one week before each protest. Follow the links to download.
Please ensure you download the official playlist rather than the songs individualy, this will ensure everyone is playing the same version of each song. Also please do not rename or reorder the songs for obvious reasons.
These playlists are not intended to infringe on copyright laws, please do not redistribute.

Procedure
All Dj's will meet at the start of protests and sync their music, then disperse to ensure maximum coverage.

Be sure to turn down the music for chants and speeches.
