    And on my Fantasy 1 page:

    “IMAGINARY PLACES” – (Looping) – Perhaps for the intro to a fantasy game?

    It’s great to see that people are beginning to download my Ogg music packs…I’m so glad they’re helpful! Personally, I think they’re a really good value…you get all of the Ogg tracks from any given page on my site (usually around 20) for the same price as purchasing 3 tracks individually. They're a great way to support my work...check them out!

    The MP3 versions, as always, are completely free.

  • 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)

    NEWS

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

    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.

    The images aren’t necessarily “cartoony” but are more graphical and less realistic than my other images.

    NEWS

    For those of you using my music tracks, my History page now has Ogg versions of my tracks on it. Ogg tracks have several advantages over MP3 tracks:

    -They loop better in game engines (MP3 tracks sometimes need to be edited.)

    -They sound amazing…almost as good as the original WAV tracks while being much smaller in size.

    -They are a cool way to support my efforts. Give them a try!
