Dramatic “Royalty Free” Music Sites

July 29, 2010

If you’ve worn out Kevin MacLeod’s Incompetech, but looking for free, royalty-free music here’s a new alternative… some dark, intense, orchestral and dramatic options. Check ‘em out: http://www.jewelbeat.com/

Also a bunch more courtesy of YouTube’s BattlefieldDoktor via JourneysofLifeBooks:

There’s also http://www.panzerflakes.com – a bit small, but still my favorite (pretty cheap, made by interesting people and aimed at me, a gamedev epic-liker :) ).

Audiojungle.net is a great site for royalty free music and sound effects. Also, I have a free cinematic track you can download here – http://kreativ-moderna.blogspot.com/

I hope you enjoy it!

http://www.royaltyfreemusiclibrary.com is another good source for music. Most of it has to be paid for but there are some free tracks there as well.
