Great music find by Jan Wildeboer a while ago.
In the thread some more African music is mentioned by Ferdinand Thommes

On my research list: AcoustID – MusicBrainz.
AcoustID is an acoustic fingerprint system built entirely on open-source technology.
The precursor was this: PUID – MusicBrainz.

There are a lot of encoders around that encode audio into AAC and often support many of the possible AAC feature extensions.
One of those encoders is the DivX AAC encoder called DivXAACEnc.
It’s not only interesting because it is free, but also because they provide some very readable information on what kind of parameters it accepts, and what they do on the DivX AAC Encoder (Beta) | DivX Labs page.
So they talk about:
Highly recommended information!
One big drawback: it is file based only, so it does not support streams.
Note: this is Windows only. Sorry.

A while ago (actually, almost two years ago <g>), Chinese Sausage wrote the below answer; it’s on my research list to see if I can stream out my audio library:

When space drive IS a concern, then ogg (aoTuV version) is the best format quality-wise (to these ears), as it is more true to the original music source, and it leaves less noticeable noise artifacts than the other encoders. However, aac is almost just as good and also more compatible with mobile phones, iPod’s and other external players, so it is probably a better choice if you want to share your music files with anybody who is not computer savvy. The main thing I do not like about aac (at least HE-AAC) is that it does not support gapless playback, which is particularly annoying if you listen to live albums, or other music which has continuous playback.
At 64kbps though, there is none better than ogg aoTuV. Here is a link to the latest version, in case you want it.
Just replace the ogg.dll and vorbis.dll files to the existing ones in your encoding program (I use MediaMonkey to encode files to ogg).Hope this helps!

AACPlus allows for a many combinations of encoding flags.
Finding out whick allows to encode a mono audio stream is a bit time consuming.
Luckily, I found this post:
If you want encode in mono make this:
enc_aacPlus test.wav test.aac --br (max 256000) --monoor for streaming:
enc_aacplus - - --br (max 256000) --silent --rawpcm 44100 2 16 --mono
Note that the various versions of enc_aacPlus.exe requires the enc_aacPlus.dll from WinAmp.

Because of a very busy project, I hadn’t watch the Icecast.org homepage for a while.
Well, this year they in fact did release some new versions that you’d think are purely maintenance releases but do have new stuff:
libShout 2.3.0 added WebM support, which is great, because it is a license free video format formerly known as VP-8 by On2/Google.
libShout 2.3.1 added Opus support, which is cool, because last month, IETF published it as a standard for use on the internet: RFC 6716 – Definition of the Opus Audio Codec.
Icecast 2.3.3 fixed quite a bit of security fixes, had some general bugfixes, allows for sources to be authenticated via URL (just like listeners can), and added support for VLCT playlists (that have much more meta information than M3U or PLS playlists).
(Hopefully Windows binaries get added soon).
Icecast 2.4 beta adds WebM and Opus support and a few bugfixes. Needs thorough testing though.
Ices 2.0.2 streams audio to Icecast, now supports RoarAudio and fixes a few bugs.

With more and more devices supporting media streaming, it is nice to have an audio streaming service in your home.
Setting this up on Windows is pretty straight forward.
What you need is this:
Lets string these together.
