From Headphonica:
“The Faust Re.Cycled” is a remix-project in connexion with the the biggest/hughest creative commons release so far: “The Faust Cycle” by Ergo Phizmiz [myspace.com/ergophizmiz], released on [you guessed it] www.headphonica.com on January 1st 2010.
“The Faust Cycle” is an extraordinary album as it embodys 14+ hours [!] of music surrounding the phantastic fable about the house of Dr. Faustus - it is a “musical-comedy of disorientation and magick, somewhere between nightmare and the half-remembered childhood whimsy of an insomniac music-hall artiste”.
more information can be found here:

where you can also download the whole piece for free in various formats:
- mp3 [5 chunks / 2 GB]
