Royalty-Free Music Resources
March 17, 2008 by Kate Olson
Some more resources for you! A friend emailed me this morning asking where she could find royalty-free music for her students to use in a project - I didn’t actually know, since I haven’t done this before, so I “asked twitter” and amazed my friend with the quick and plentiful responses! I compiled most of them in del.icio.us and they’re here if you’d like them. Even though I don’t need to use them right now, I made sure to compile them for later on when I’m doing the same kind of project. Yet again, if you have any great ones that I don’t have listed, just throw them in here!

Look for any music that is “Creative Commons”. Google allows you to search for “creative commons” under their advanced search i believe. http://search.creativecommons.org is another great resource. If your looking for sound effects & loops, the free sound project is a great resource. There are plenty of others, but those our the ones that come to mind.
Enjoy your search.

Hey Kate, Cool list, you should also check out http://www.ibaudio.com for some great royalty free music. Hope that’s useful to you. Thanks Yan!
Hi Kate. By the way my baby daughter’s name is Kate too! I’ve used http://www.opuzz.com/ and the stuff quite good. I use http://www.soundsnap.com/ for sound effects … just in case you need them too.
Hi Kate,
Here are all the ones I’ve found:

Thanks for all of the great additions! I’ve added them to my del.ico.us tag “freemusic” that I linked above.
