Happy New Year Everyone!

I've begun to create a library of texture images that you are welcome to use in your projects. There are seamless ones for tiling as well as standard ones. I've uploaded about 300 or so to get started, and I'm adding more all the time so be sure to check back often. You'll find them on my TXR pages.

In the meantime, here are this week's new free music tracks:

"Magic Clock Shop"_Looping

http://soundimage.org/fantasywonder/


"The Village"_Looping

"Strange Shop"_Looping

"The Castle Beyond the Forest"_Looping

http://soundimage.org/fantasy-3/


"The Awkward Princess Returns"_Looping

http://soundimage.org/fantasy-4/


As always, any and all feedback is welcome and much appreciated. :)


Have a great start to your new year!

Eric

If anyone happens to feel the need to decompress from the stress of modern life (like me) I've created a little video called "The Meditative Coast" that should hopefully help a little bit. It's on my new "Virtual Cinema" page...give it a try. :)

In the meantime, I've got more free looping tracks ready on my fantasy pages. They are:

"Quirky Dreamscape"_Looping

http://soundimage.org/fantasy-4/


"Digital Downtown"_Looping

"Backstory"_Looping

http://soundimage.org/fantasy-5/


"Awkward Princess's Day Out"_Looping

"Once Around the Kingdom"_Looping

"Some Faraway Place"_Looping

"The Princess Haunted"_Looping

http://soundimage.org/fantasy-6/


I hope some of them are helpful!

Here is a quick question. Are there any Synths or Chiptune type songs or tracks that use such instruments? I need them for my game.

I have some Chiptune style tracks on my "looping music" page...give them a try. :)

I want to send out a great big heartfelt thank you to everyone who has personally reached out to me about my film "Then Meditative Coast." I'm glad that you're enjoying it and hope that it helps to lower your blood pressure in these stressful times that we live in. Please feel free to share the film with anyone who might find it helpful.

In that spirit, here are this week's new free tracks:

"Still of Morning"_Looping

"Thumbing Across Alaska"_Looping

Hey Everyone,

I had a busy week shooting images, but I did manage to get some new tracks done:

"STRANGE NATURE"_Looping – Bizarre creatures are everywhere…if you look.

http://soundimage.org/naturescience/


"HYPNOTIC ORIENT"_Looping – I’d love to hear this in a travel video.

"EXOTIC DREAMING"_Looping – of faraway places. (I've been doing a lot of that lately.)

"EXOTIC CRUISING"_Looping – might be nice in a travel or vacation video. (Anyone want to treat me to a cruise? Haha.)

http://soundimage.org/events/


Awe, come on...I could really use a cruise! ;-)
 

Eric Matyas

Well, it was another busy week, but I guess that's a good thing...keeping busy keeps me out of trouble...usually... ;-) Anyhow, I managed to get these done:

"RIVER IN TROUBLE"_Looping – Thinking about the Colorado River in the American south west.
"ALASKAN MOONRISE"_Looping – Could work in a nature documentary or perhaps something else.
"FLURRIES"_Looping – That chill in the air tells you the first snow fall of winter is on its way.

http://soundimage.org/naturescience-2/

"PELICAN BAY TIKI PARTY"_Looping – A fun tropical piece.

http://soundimage.org/positive-upbeat/

"SCULPTURE GARDEN"_Looping – A string piece with the suggestion of gently bubbling fountains. Might be nice for a classy outdoor event.

http://soundimage.org/classical-sounding/

I also created a new page of sky images...mostly taken around sunset...for anyone who's interested...(TXR - SKIES) I hope some of them are helpful. :)

Have a good week!

Hi everyone,

It's a little hard to believe, but Soundimage turned 3 years old this month, so I wanted to send out a big thank you to everyone who has been so positive and encouraging from the start. Creating original music is a lot of work, but it's thrilling to hear my tracks in your games, apps, videos and emerging art forms like interactive novels. I feel like part of me is in your work, and it's incredibly satisfying to be able to help you make your visions into realities.
Thank you!

In a few more weeks, I should have seamless looping versions done of nearly every track on the site. That said, this week's new free tracks are from my sci-fi pages. They are:

"Retro Sci-Fi Planet"_Looping

"Night Winds"_Looping

"Eerie Cyber World"_Looping

"Dizzybot"_Looping

http://soundimage.org/sci-fi/

"Dystopic Technology"_Looping

http://soundimage.org/sci-fi-2/

I hope some of them are helpful!

Hi everyone,

This week's new free tracks are from my sci-fi and horror pages. They are:

"Sewer Monsters"_Looping

http://soundimage.org/sci-fi-2/

"Closing In 2"_Looping

"Night Stalker"_Looping

"Disturbed Soundscape"_Looping

"Lurking in the Shadows"_Looping

http://soundimage.org/horrorsurreal/

I've also been getting emails asking if my tracks are free to use in commercial projects. The answer is yes (with proper attribution.) Please see my homepage for attribution information. :)

As always, love your gear!

Looking forward to firing this up and hearing what you've been up to. :)
Thanks, I appreciate it!

This week's new free tracks are:

"Cyber Dystopia"_Looping

http://soundimage.org/sci-fi-5/

"Sewer Creepers"_Looping

"Grunge Bot"_Looping

"Breakdown"_Looping

"Countdown"_Looping

http://soundimage.org/sci-fi-4/

I get emails every once in a while from folks who seem to be having a bit of trouble navigating the site. Here are some things to keep in mind that should hopefully help:

1. The titles of the pages in the tan box under the header image are actually links to the various pages. Hover over them to highlight them (a box appears around them) and then click.

2. I think sometimes people are fooled when they click on one of the page links, like for example "Fantasy 3" and nothing seems to happen. But if you look closer, you'll see that the title of the link you clicked on actually turns to bold indicating that you are now on that particular page. Simply scroll down to see the contents of that page.

3. Since all of the page links appear at the top of every page, it's easy to think that you haven't been taken anywhere after clicking on one of them. Again, notice that the title of the link you clicked on has now turned bold...and you have to scroll down to see the page contents.

Anyhow, I hope that's helpful! :)

This is quite generous of you. And honestly, probably a smart way to market yourself. Who doesn't like free stuff?

Thanks so much...I really appreciate it!

It's been a very hectic week, but I did manage to upload some new tracks:

"The Old Parolee"_Looping

Hi everyone,

Now that looping versions of most of my tracks are done, I'm back to creating brand new music and soundscapes. Got a new synth, too, so lots of new sounds are on their way. Here are some for starters:

"Sky Runner" (standard and looping)
"Cyber Teen"
http://soundimage.org/sci-fi-5/

"It's Always Sunny in the 80's"
"It's Raining Pixels"
"The Ice Cream Man"
http://soundimage.org/chiptunes/

"After the Invasion"
http://soundimage.org/horrorsurreal/

"From the Sand to the Stars"
http://soundimage.org/techno/

I hope some of them are useful! :)

More brand new free tracks for everyone...

"REACHING ALTITUDE" – I would love to hear this in a drone video…(I’m a huge fan.) But it might work in a travel video as well.
http://soundimage.org/events/

"THE ASTRONOMY CLUB" – Somehow these kids always seemed to have a lovable goofiness about them. I was never in the astronomy club, but probably should have been…I love all things having to do with space (and certainly qualified as far as the goofy factor was concerned!)
http://soundimage.org/funny-3/

"GRUNGE STREET GAME" – (Looping) Might work under a fighting level.
http://soundimage.org/action/

"MIDNIGHT WANDERER" – Through the cold concrete jungle.
http://soundimage.org/city-urban-2/

"A CITY FOR ALL MANKIND" – Perhaps one day people will finally learn to get along.
http://soundimage.org/positive-upbeat/

Have a great week! :)

Man, your website is awesome! Not only for your allowing the free use of your stuff, but the shear amount of stuff you come up with! I had a game that only needed sfx and soundtrack and now I found it. When I am done with the game, I´ll be sure to get back here to ask you the proper way you would like to be credited.

Great work and thanks!

PS: I have to say, your songs really give me... futuristic inspirations. A little cyber-punk or a little mankind-destroyed-by-robots.

Awesome...I'm glad my work is helpful!

Hi everyone,

I've been super busy with film projects, but I did manage to create a few new free tracks for everyone. They are on my Action 2 page:

"Captain Bad Ass" (looping)
"Captain Bad Ass 2" (looping)
"Captain Bad Ass 3" (looping)
http://soundimage.org/action-2/

These might be fun in some kind of gritty action game or story. Mix and match them. Edit as needed. Be a bad ass! ;-)

Have a great week!

Hmm this is good stuff! I have not seen any of your songs but can I ask if you can do something retro-ish, like 8bit songs but, made today, modern 8 bit, something like that! :D And if you do retro-ish sounds too, Tell me!

You guys are very welcome! And yes, check out my Chiptunes page for retro 8-bit sounding music. :)

Well, it's been another very hectic week, but I managed to get a few more tracks done.

Where I live, the summers are very long (and hot) and I see the stores already putting out the Halloween stuff. I think everyone around here is really over summer and just wishes fall were here. So, in the spirit of fall (well, really of Halloween) I've created:

"Trancyvania_v001" (looping)
"Trancyvania_v002" (looping)
"Trancyvania_v003" (looping)
"Trancyvania_v004" (looping)
http://soundimage.org/funny-3/

I'd love to hear these in a game or a video.

Enjoy!

Would you mind if I downloaded everything on your site to my hard drive in order that I can sort through it more easily? (Figured I'd ask ahead of time... don't want to destroy your bandwidth.)

Hi everyone,

I've received a number of requests from game developers for .ogg versions of my tracks and have been asked why .ogg files aren't posted on my site. The reason is that my hosting company doesn't support that file format...so please feel free to convert my tracks to .ogg (or any file format that you need.) :)

That said, this week's new free tracks are on my Sci-Fi 5 page, my Puzzle Music page and my Funny 3 page:

Well, another super busy week...(and I thought I was going to have a nice relaxing summer)...yeah, right!

Hi Eric, you have an awesome collection of music here!

An artist and me is in development of a game and is searching for a music composer. If you are available you can start a conversation with us in the forum.
