  • Hi everyone,

    For this week, I’ve created some cool creepy music tracks that might be helpful. Free to use with attribution:

    On my Fantasy 11 page:

    “SCARY THINGS AHEAD”

    “SCARY THINGS AHEAD 2”

    soundimage.org/fantasy-11

    On my Horror 2 page:

    “SURREALIZATION”

    soundimage.org/horror-2

    And a wild chiptunes-style track on my Chiptunes 4 page:

    “WILD RIDE THROUGH TOKYO” – (Looping)

    soundimage.org/chiptunes-4

    NEWS

    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.

    Speaking of which, if you find my free music to be helpful, please consider making a small donation on my website to help support my efforts.

    Keep safe and stay healthy.

    Tile-able Asphalt is here:

    Tile-able bark is here:

    soundimage.org/txr-bark-seamless

    And tile-able brick is here:

    I’ve also created an index page for all of the image pages. It’s accessed from the top menu bar on my site.

    soundimage.org/images-home-page

    If you happen to need some creepy-sounding music, I’ll be releasing some new tracks tomorrow. Be sure to check my free music thread.

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

    “SUMMERS IN QUIRKYVILLE” (standard and looping)

    “COIN-OP STRANGENESS” (standard and looping)

    “NOSTALGIC FOR QUIRKYVILLE” (standard and looping)

    soundimage.org/chiptunes-4

    NEWS

    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.

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

    soundimage.org/txr-concrete-pavement-cartoon

    NEWS

    The links menu on my site is getting a bit out of control (again) so I created a new page that contains buttons to access all of my image pages. You can get to it from the top menu bar.

    More music tracks should be ready for everyone tomorrow. Be sure to check my free music thread.

  • 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)

    soundimage.org/chiptunes-4

    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.

  • Happy New Year!

    I hope everyone didn’t drink too much…ha ha. ;-)

    To kick off 2021, brand new seamless texture images are waiting for you on these pages:

    TXR – Ground – Cartoon

    soundimage.org/txr-ground-cartoon

    TXR – Metal – Cartoon

    soundimage.org/txr-metal-cartoon

    TXR – Rock/Stone – Cartoon

    soundimage.org/txr-rockstone-cartoon

    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!

    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
