Hi everyone, If you possibly can, please consider making a small donation on my website to support my work. Your contributions help me to pay for the keyboard synthesizers I use to create free music for the creative community. That said, this week’s new free music tracks are: On my Epic / Battle page: PIRATES! – (Looping) https://soundimage.org/epic-battle/ On my Puzzle Music 5 page: MAGICAL MINNIE PUZZLES – (Looping) https://soundimage.org/puzzle-music-5/ And on my Sci-Fi 9 page: AUTOMATED CREATION – (Looping) https://soundimage.org/sci-fi-9/ Enjoy…and keep being creative.

Hey guys, Here are this week’s brand new free music tracks. I hope they are helpful. On my Chiptunes 3 page: CAFFEINE CRAZED COIN-OP KIDS – (Looping) https://soundimage.org/chiptunes-3/ On my City/Urban 2 page: COOL MENU LOOP – (Looping) https://soundimage.org/city-urban-2/ And on my Positive/Upbeat page: SUMMERTIME FUN – (Looping) https://soundimage.org/positive-upbeat/ Please stay safe and healthy…and don’t stop being creative!

Hi Folks, This week’s new free music tracks are: On my Fantasy 10 page: A TRAIL OF JEWELS – (Looping) QUIRKY GAME WORLD – (Looping) https://soundimage.org/fantasy-10/ On my Funny 7 page: THE FISHBOWL ACROBATS RETURN – (Looping) WINDLE’S WHIMSICAL STREET – (Looping) https://soundimage.org/funny-7/ If you’re wondering what the big fuss about Ogg tracks is, they have several advantages: -They are small in size. -Game engines seem to handle them better for looping…MP3 files occasionally need editing. -They sound fantastic…almost as good as my original WAVs. -They’re a cool way to support my work!

Hi everyone, It’s been a while…I’ve been super busy with music and other stuff. I’m back to creating images for everyone, though…a bunch of new ones are on these pages…free, as always, to use with attribution: TXR – ABSTRACT https://soundimage.org/txr-abstract/ TXR – ALIEN SKINS https://soundimage.org/txr-alien-skins/ TXR – GLASS https://soundimage.org/txr-glass/ TXR – ROCK/STONE – FANTASY https://soundimage.org/txr-rock-stone-fantasy/ Enjoy and stay safe.

Another very busy week…and I’m a bit under the weather…but here are some new tracks for everyone. Free to use, of course, with attribution. On my Puzzle Music 5 page: ISLAND OF PUZZLES – (Looping) TROPICAL MYSTERIES – (Looping) https://soundimage.org/puzzle-music-5/ On my World page: EXOTIC DANGERS - (Looping) https://soundimage.org/world/ I’m glad to see that my Ogg files are being utilized…I’ll try to get more uploaded this week. If you need any that I haven’t done yet, just message me and I’ll upload them for you. Thanks for your support and please stay safe.

Thanks for for supporting my work...it means a lot. :-) And you're very welcome...I'm an indie artist, too, so I know how challenging it is working with very limited budgets...especially when I make my films. I sincerely hope some of my work is helpful to the community! It’s been a very busy week, but I did get a few new tracks done for everyone. You’ll find them all on my Sci-Fi 9 page: ROBO BOSS BATTLE – (Looping) GRUNGE STREET – (Looping) MOONLIT CYBER ALLEYS – (Looping) https://soundimage.org/sci-fi-9/ Enjoy…and please stay safe (and healthy.)

Another Special Request to Everyone: If you possibly can, please consider making a small donation on my website to support my work. The synthesizers I use to create free music for everyone are very expensive (2 Korgs and a Yamaha.) I actually have to make monthly payments on them and donations from the creative community really help me a LOT to pay for them. Thanks in advance. :-) That said, I managed to get a couple of new tracks done for everyone. Free to use, as always, with attribution: On My Epic / Battle page: “COMRADES ALWAYS” (Looping) https://soundimage.org/epic-battle/ On my Fantasy 10 page: “OF KNIGHTS AND KINGS” (Looping) https://soundimage.org/fantasy-10/ Please stay safe and healthy.

OGG TRACKS UPDATE Super high-quality Ogg versions of all my Fantasy Tracks are finally ready. That’s about 200 tracks to choose from…all created from my original WAV recordings (but much smaller in file size.) They sound great and are a cool way to support my work. That said, this week’s new free MP3 tracks are improved versions of the following: On my Fantasy 1 page: Misty Bog Mystical Backstory_v001_Looping High Altitude Station_v001_Looping https://soundimage.org/fantasywonder/ On my Fantasy 2 page: Strange Game Menu_v001a_Looping Strange Game Menu_v002a_Looping Strange Game Menu_v003a_Looping https://soundimage.org/fantasy-2/ On my Fantasy 5 page: Mystical Lands Beckon_v001_Looping https://soundimage.org/fantasy-5/ On my Fantasy 7 Sadlands_v001_Looping https://soundimage.org/fantasy-7/ And on my Sci-Fi 7 page: Alley Chase_v001_Looping https://soundimage.org/sci-fi-7/ Enjoy…and please stay safe (and healthy.)

Good News: Super high-quality Ogg versions of all of my Puzzle Music Tracks are ready. That’s around 100 tracks to choose from…all created from my original WAV recordings (but much smaller in file size.) They’re really cool, too, because they can be used for all kinds of things in addition to puzzle games. You’ll find them on my Puzzle Music 1-5 pages. https://soundimage.org/puzzle-music/ More Good News: All of the tracks on my Fantasy 9 page now have Ogg versions as well. They sound great! https://soundimage.org/fantasy-9/ And even MORE good news: If you create arcade-style games (or know someone who does) Ogg versions of all the tracks on my Chiptunes 1 page are now ready, too. https://soundimage.org/chiptunes/ That said, this week’s new free MP3 tracks are: On my Epic / Battle page: PREPARING FOR BATTLE – (Looping) https://soundimage.org/epic-battle/ On my Fantasy 10 page: THE KEY TO THE KINGDOM – (Looping) https://soundimage.org/fantasy-10/ And on my Looping Music page: RACING MENU_V001 – (Looping) 80’S SPACE GAME LOOP_V002 https://soundimage.org/looping-music/ Keep being creative and please stay safe.

You folks literally make this all possible. Thank you! That said, this week’s new free MP3 tracks are: From my Puzzle Music 5 page: ICE PUZZLE – (Looping) https://soundimage.org/puzzle-music-5/ From my Sci-Fi 9 page: TWISTED DYSTOPIA – (Looping) DETECTIVES IN DYTOPIA (Looping) https://soundimage.org/sci-fi-9/ Big Ogg Track Update! Super high-quality Ogg versions of a bunch my tracks are ready. They sound really cool and could be used for all kinds of things besides puzzle games I’m sure.

If you've been following my music sharing thread over the years, you know that I'm not one to toot my own whistle, but I've been getting some very positive feedback about "Dune's Island" from parents and teachers so I included a "Praise for Dune's Island" page on the site. Given the current environmental situation, I believe that this is a very important project. Getting the word out about it is a massive challenge, though...especially since it has no advertising budget. If you think "Dune's Island" might be helpful to someone you know, please share it with them. Thanks in advance! https://www.dunesisland.org/

This week’s new free MP3 music tracks are from two pages on my site: From my Chiptunes 3 page: THE PIXELVILLE HALL OF JUSTICE – (Looping) https://soundimage.org/chiptunes-3/ And from my Funny 7 page: GAME WORLD SILLINESS LOLA PIXEL RETURNS MORE FISHBOWL ACROBATICS – (Looping) https://soundimage.org/funny-7/ Please stay healthy and safe.

Here’s our page where you can access all of the episodes. I think it looks pretty good for a community project! Please help us share it with the world. :-) https://www.dunesisland.org/episodes

Hi everyone, Here are this week’s new free MP3 tracks: On my Fantasy 10 page: WINTER OF DESPAIR – (Looping) OF CASTLES, MAGIC AND SPELLS_Remixed – (Looping) https://soundimage.org/fantasy-10/ On my Puzzle Music 1 page: MYSTERIOUS PUZZLE – (Looping) https://soundimage.org/puzzle-music/ On my Puzzle Music 5 page: OF JEWELS AND PUZZLES – (Looping) https://soundimage.org/puzzle-music-5/ And on my Chiptunes 2 page: PIXELIN’ IT AROUND TOWN – (Standard – non looping) PIXELIN’ IT AROUND TOWN_v001 – (Standard – non looping) PIXELIN’ IT AROUND TOWN_v002 – (Standard – non looping) https://soundimage.org/chiptunes-2/ Don’t forget about my premium Ogg tracks. They sound great and are super affordable…a cool way to support my work. Stay safe and healthy.

I had always intended "Dune's Island" to be an immersive learning world. The idea was to produce films that teachers and home educators could actually pull lessons from to share with their students. After completing the episodes, a team of science teachers went through the films and created curriculum for grades K-5 that ties into the episodes. Here's a link to it: https://www.dunesisland.org/curriculum Please feel free to share it!

If anyone happens to wonder what I get up to when I’m not creating music for everyone, I write and direct films that hopefully help kids (and grownups) learn important things. Here’s a link to the page on my new site where you can freely access all of the “Dune’s Island” episodes. I’ve enabled the download function on Vimeo so you don’t even have to be online to share it with your kiddos. https://www.dunesisland.org/episodes Enjoy…and please feel free to share with anyone who might find it useful. Stay safe and healthy.

Hi everyone, If you happen to have kids (or know someone who does) here's a brand new free resource that I hope is helpful. It's a website for my video learning series, “Dune’s Island,” which aims to teach kids environmental stewardship in a really fun way through stories and characters. Within the site you can freely access all the episodes, support documentaries and even tie-in curriculum (like vocabulary, math problems, writing prompts and more.) In the coming weeks, I’ll be expanding the site with all kinds of activities and more cool documentaries, so please be sure to bookmark it. In the meantime, any and all feedback is welcome and very much appreciated. Enjoy and stay safe. https://www.dunesisland.org/
