Sharing My Music and Sound Effects - Over 2000 Tracks

[Eric Matyas]

I can’t believe it’s October…finally. (I’m definitely looking forward to some cooler weather.)

Anyhow, this week’s new free MP3 tracks are:

On my Chiptunes 3 page:
ARCADE QUIRKINESS – (Looping)
ARCADE QUIRKINESS_v001 – (Looping)
https://soundimage.org/chiptunes-3/

And on my City/Urban 3 page:
CORPORATE ESPIONAGE 2 – (Looping)

Please share my site with anyone who might find it helpful!

And don’t forget about my Ogg tracks.

Hi,

I got carried away listening to your creations and I want to say that it's just magical. I think you should keep doing this. I experienced this when I launched games on the site and won good money.

Thanks...I hope some of my work is helpful!

Greetings Fellow Creatives,

If you possibly can, please consider making a small donation to support my website. I don’t allow any advertising on the site because I feel that it would be distracting to my visitors. My website is 100% community supported. Please help support this project…thanks in advance.

Halloween is only a couple of weeks away, so this week’s new MP3 tracks are all on my Horror 2 page. They are:

GHOULS RULE – (Looping)

GHOULS RULE_V001 – (Looping)

SOMETHING AWFUL THIS WAY COMES

MORE AWFUL THINGS THIS WAY COME – (Looping)

MORE AWFUL THINGS THIS WAY COME_V001 – (Looping)

Feel free to share my site with anyone who might find it helpful.

And please stay healthy and safe.

Hello Fellow Content Creators,

If anyone happens to be creating Halloween-themed projects, there are lots of scary tracks on my Dark/Ominous pages as well as my Horror/Surreal pages that you can use:

https://soundimage.org/dark-ominous/
https://soundimage.org/dark-ominous-2/
https://soundimage.org/horrorsurreal/
https://soundimage.org/horror-2/

My next big project will to create super high-quality Ogg versions of all of my Sci-Fi tracks. If you happen to need some that aren’t converted yet, just me know and I’ll move them to the front of the list.

Speaking of Sci-Fi tracks, here’s a brand new one that might come in handy:

A FUTURE IN SPACE – (Looping) – An upbeat piece depicting humans and their technology venturing out into the cosmos.
https://soundimage.org/sci-fi-9/

Enjoy and keep being creative!

[Eric Matyas]

Happy Halloween! (Okay, a couple of days early.)

In honor of this spooky holiday, here are some free new tracks that might be helpful for spooky games. They’re haunting my Fantasy 11 page:

SPOOKY ENCHANTMENT – (Looping)
THE GHOSTIES’ NIGHT OUT – (Looping)
THE GHOSTIES’ NIGHT OUT_v001 – (Looping)
https://soundimage.org/fantasy-11/

NEWS

All of the tracks on my Sci-Fi 2 page are now available in higher quality Ogg format.
https://soundimage.org/sci-fi-2/

Advantages of Ogg files:

-Game engines handle them better for looping…MP3 files occasionally need editing.
-They sound fantastic…almost as good as the original WAVs.
-They are small in size.
-They’re a cool way to support my work!

Enjoy and please stay safe.

If you find my work helpful, please consider making a small donation on my site through PayPal to help support it. I don’t allow advertising on the site because I feel it would be distracting to my visitors so I pay for everything myself. Also, the keyboards I use to create free music for everyone are very expensive…I actually make monthly payments for them…so donations from the community help me to pay for them as well. Thanks for helping out.

More Ogg Music Packs are ready!

A good number of game developers have asked me if they can download multiple music tracks all at once instead of one at a time, so I’m making Ogg music packs available that include all of the tracks for any given page once that page is full and I’m no longer adding any more tracks to it.

You’ll see a button near the top of the page if a music pack is available.

Presently, music packs are available for the following pages:

Action 1
Chiptunes 1-3
Fantasy 1-10
Dark/Ominous
Horror / Surreal
Looping Music
Puzzle Music 1-5
Sci-Fi / Space

Happy New Year, fellow creatives!

Did everybody drink too much? I certainly hope so!

Seriously, though, 2020 was pretty rough…I really hope 2021 is better.

Anyhow, here are some brand new MP3 music tracks to kick off the New Year. 100% free to use with attribution:

GOINGS-ON IN PIXEL TOWN (standard and looping)
THE 8-BIT MARCH (standard and looping)
WINDLE PIXEL’S 8-BIT CIRCUS (standard and looping)

NEWS

Continuing my quest to provide Ogg versions of all my music tracks, I just added my history music page to the list.

https://soundimage.org/ancient/

If you aren't familiar with the Ogg format, it has several advantages over MP3 audio:

-Ogg tracks sound fantastic…almost as good as the original WAV recordings from which they are derived…plus they are much smaller in terms of file size.

-Game engines handle looping Ogg tracks better…MP3 tracks occasionally have to be edited at the looping point.

Give them a try!

In the meantime, if you find my free MP3 tracks helpful, please consider making a small donation on my website to help support my efforts.

Have a good week and please stay safe.

This week we have more free chiptunes-inspired music on my Chiptunes 4 page:

“SUMMERS IN QUIRKYVILLE” (standard and looping)

For those of you who are using my free images, the links menu on my site has gotten out of control (again) so I’ve created a menu page for all of my image pages. You can access it from the menu bar toward the top of my site.
