4 Royalty Free Podcast Sound Effects and Music Resources — Part 3
With the huge growth of the video and podcast creator community, the marketplace for royalty free music has increased right along with it. These days, there are several resources online for music, all with various licensing options uniquely appropriate for your production needs. In the following post, I’ll review 4 resources with various usage and membership options. So, let’s dive in!
Musopen
It’s a non-profit that concentrates on improving exposure, as well as access to music by developing free educational materials and resources. Musopen offers textbooks, sheet music, and recordings to the general public free of charge, without any copyright limitations. Put plainly, their goal includes “setting music free”. Also, Musopen provides paid memberships that start at $20/ mo. Paying members have accessibility to new music up to two weeks earlier than the free members. Also, paid memberships allow members to prioritize the music that’s acquired by placing requests on Musopen’s wish list. The ones at the top are obtained first.
909 Music
It’s a Royalty Free Music library committed to producing, licensing, and offering cutting-edge, modern day quality rich music for Ads, Film, Videos, Games, Apps and additional media. 909 Music is hosted upon SoundCloud, the globe’s largest audio and music platform, and cleanly organizes some of the leading indie stock music to simple-to-download playlists.
Jamendo
It’s a platform for online musical work distribution that provides services for companies, users, as well as artists. All of the artists on Jamendo claimed being 100 percent independent artists, which means not being affiliated by any PRO (Performance Rights Organization). It’s an innovative platform in which music enthusiasts and musicians worldwide connect. They’ve brought together a global community of independent music, which creates value, as well as experience around it. Jamendo Licensing, over time, has collected 200,000 tracks and brought a fast and easy licensing option to 30,000 customers across every industry and around the world.
FyrFly-SongFreedom
They license iconic, Top 40, epic cinematic, indie, epic, as well as additional incredible music in order for you to have the choice to select the sprt of music that better matches your needs. FyrFly-SongFreedom started as a bridge that connected musical, as well as visual artists. Now, this bridge supports more than 800 creatives and involves electrifying Top 10 singers like Lady Gaga, as well as singer/songwriters such as The Royal Foundry. Their dedication to building community is unrivalled through an easy membership plan. Since promotional/commercial type licenses are more of a case-by-case purchase, they’ll be an extra charge and they aren’t included in your subscription cost.
