Royalty free music

[Shari D]

I have a client that requires an inexhaustable supply of 30 second "industrial/electronic" sounding music for radio spots (with a suitable sting at the end). I've gone through almost everything that I can find at musicbakery.com. Does anyone else have any suggestions for me?


Thanks!

hi shari,

all of these libraries have stuff in them. you can contact the libraries directly for a per drop rate. (or send me an e-mail and i can help you search through these libraries and provide tons of tracks via the web to you.)

Extreme Music -- tons of that stuff and all slammed to hell with an L2 for ya!
Killer Tracks -- tons from various libraries
5 Alarm Music -- tons from various libraries
APM -- tons from various libraries

Studio Cuts, not so, much, but it is cheap to buy their stuff...they are best for the pop/rock stuff.

you can also go to production trax but you get what you pay for....

Check out www.shockwave-sound.com. They keep their library updated and are pretty reasonably priced.

Best,

What is your budget? You might be able to get someone to write a bunch of pieces if your budget is decent.

Make sure you check the licensing terms closely . . . what is royalty free for one type of use may not be for another (especially advertising). That's because some types such as tv broadcast have performance royalties that the broadcaster pays to the publisher/composer, advertising doesn't so relies on different fees.
