Here's a collection of free-to-use short music for any kind of project imaginable. I've been working on this project for over 10 years on and off, and it's a labour of love.

Whether you're doing work for TV, Radio, Film, your next podcast, show reel, powerpoint presentation, youtube video or university assignment that requires something to intro or outro it, there should be something for you, and if not you directly, maybe someone you know.

This is not the final form. I add to it whenever I find inspiration to do so. Check back every so often as you may find more content was added when you weren't looking 🔇

Currently:
1210 items
766 MB download in mp3
over 9 hours of music.

Absolutely no AI was used (or harmed) in the making of this collection.

If you feel so inclined, please do boost for reach. Many thanks.

@Onj The Readme says this can only be used for non-commercial ventures, but you mention "TV", "Film", and "podcasts" here, which are usually commercial.

@griseldagimpel Right, there's a reason for that.
Some podcasts make 0 money, so you don't have to pay for music. If you're doing something where you'll get payment, I'd like a little cut of that.
For your payment, you get access to the collection in either.wav or .flac which is of course superior to mp3 anyway, so it's not that you're just paying for the same files you already have access to. I don't believe in that.

@Onj Got it! I'll keep that in mind.

(I'm currently working on an audio drama/fiction podcast. It would be awesome if it made money, but right now, I'm in the "will be happy if I can pay my voice actors rather than obtaining their services via bartering". So I'll have to check out the selection.)

@griseldagimpel Then please do. Until you make money, I want nothing other than attribution. Most people that find the collection are students or bedroom podcasters making 0 money anyway, for which I ask nothing other than a shout-out. That's often the best thing for me anyway, is word-of-mouth.
