Why I’m Giving Royalty-Free Music Away for Free
Now you can enhance your videos, podcasts,
and other creative projects with royalty-free music. And it doesn’t
have to cost you a dime.
We
live in an exciting time. The power to create amazing stuff is in our
hands. To an extent, I mean that quite literally — smartphones are
insanely powerful.
But more figuratively, I’m saying that now is the age of the
maker because, thanks to technology, the barrier to entry is remarkably
low.
More people than ever are producing videos, recording podcasts, building video games, and so on.
I’m one of them. (I’m guessing you are, too.) And it’s actually my
journey as a maker that led to the creation of this website. Allow me to
elaborate…
The problem with most royalty-free music
Back in 2015, I started experimenting with video and animation.
And in the process, I learned something that probably won’t surprise
you: finding quality music to use in commercial projects is tough — and
often pretty expensive.
That’s problematic because many projects don’t have the budget to
license songs. It’s just not practical. Besides, trying to decipher the
legal lingo of most music licenses isn’t fun. Let’s be honest.
I felt like there had to be a better solution. But after a lot of research, I couldn’t find one.
So I decided to start making my own music — and then give it away every week.
You can use my music pretty much however you want.
And you’ll never have any headaches with copyrights. You won’t have to
pay license fees. And you don’t even have to credit me or the website
(unless you just want to).
I made Music for Makers because I’m a maker.
And as a maker, I was frustrated with the lack of good, affordable
royalty-free music. So I’m doing something about it and hoping to help
creative folks like you in the process.
